perry moves, where black men get flack. they are not nice to their women and deceitful, et cetera. and george, express your concerns and what you think is going on here? >> well my concern is that courtland malloy is over the top in his article and he does that to make a powerful point. but if you look at how white actors and actresses are portrayed, there is a diversified portrayal over the human behavioral spectrum. if you look at how black men are portrayed, really portrayed at the negative end of the spectrum more times than now. now are things changing? yes. and tyler perry, to his credit, is gaining greater strength and is creating his own little empire in atlanta to maybe he'll be able to lead with a -- diversifying those portrayals. and we're still in the world we're playing on the typical stereotypes that we see. >> and denise, do you agree with that? >> well i'll say this. i always teach that the artist has the freedom, and needs to have the freedom to be able to create and tell the kind of story they are compelled to tell. now with tyler perry, certainly he didn't originate this st
