    *White men. Recall Denzel Washington being absolutely flabberghasted when asked this on the red carpet.

      Ah yes, Denzel, chosen representative of all black men.

      Thank you for correcting the record

        It’s niche in more diverse communities where history is reflected on in a more global sense and is less eurocentric overall (hence Denzel’s hilarious response) but it’s neat that these young men are reflecting on history. Hopefully it helps them understand something meaningful about the world.
