Editorial: Black trauma in movies does more harm than good April 14, 2021 158 Views Recently, two films have been trending on social media regarding the trauma in Black communities and how it does not benefit the community in any way. The Amazon Prime Original movie “Them” was released on April 9. It focuses on the hardship of a Black family transitioning from North Carolina to California to live a better life in an all-white neighborhood. The family becomes terrorized by their new neighbors and face different micro-aggressions that stimulate their own personal horrors. The problem many are having with the film is that “Them” replicates the style of Jordan Peele’s “Us” movie from 2019, and the scenes are seen as insensitive.
