Zoe has replaced Halle as The black actress in Hollywood.Halle had a nice run,for over 10 years she's been the black actress.But now its Zoe's turn to be on top.That's why she's starring as Nina Simone.Some are crying that she doesn't look like her or she's not the next Angela Davis! Well she's not angry Angela,and that's perfectly fine with me.Those who don't like it can kick rocks or pound sand.

She's also the leading Latina actress in Hollywood. Name another Latina who is more relevant right now, at least in terms of box office? Exactly.

I'd have to say that Zoe, Halle and Charlize are among the most beautiful African Americans in the movies

@MrSuave
Why do ou say "angry Angela"? There's way more to Angela Davis's life and work than just being "angry"nice way to stereotype someone you obviously know nothing about. Y'all just love that "angry black woman" stereotype, don't you?

Okay since you asked me twice I'll answer,I was making the comparison because Angela Davis was a militant person.Oh and no I'm NOT a fan of Ms Davis.

@MrSuave
You don't have to be a "fan" of Ms. Davis (whom I had the privilege of seeing give a talk at a local church just a couple of years ago.) There's also a good documentary out about her in which she talks about her life and times called FREE ANGELA AND ALL POLITICAL PRISONERScheck it out.

Why did you say "angry Angela"? There's a lot more to Angela Davis's life and work than just being "sngry"nice way to stereotype someone you clearly know nothing about Do some research, please.

And both of them are mixed. That's how Hollywood feels about black women.

Its sad there can't be more than one black actress at a time it seems.
And she's completely wrong for the part of Nina Simone. I doubt that movie will see the light of day anyway.

oh really? Care to explain why you think that way?
And we will just have to wait & see how the 1c84movie will do, last time I heard it's still in post-production is still scheduled to be released sometime this year.
