Sharing is a concern!
The Harder They Fall, a late 1800s revenge movie with a bit
of history, premiered on Netflix on November 3 and was produced by Sean
"J-Z" Carter. The film features fantastic and impressive characters
from Regina King, Idris Elba and Jonathan Majors.
This movie, one of the most anticipated movies of the year,
requires a historical narrative as we have multiple starring roles playing real
blacks from African American history. One of these people is Stagecoach Mary.
Mary Fields, also known as the Stagecoach Mary or Black Mary, was the first
African-American star mail carrier in the United States. techgeeksblogger
If you dig a slight deeper into who Mary's diligence was,
you can find historical sources where she is mentioned as brave, brave, that
she carries a rifle and drinks. She was smart and did whatever it took to
protect the other errands.
Stagecoach Mary was a dark-skinned, heavy-set, dark-skinned
woman who wore men's clothing and became a Wild West legend. So why does Zazie
Bitz play the role of Stagecoach Mary?
Who was Mary Fields, aka Stagecoach Mary?
Maria diligence
Mary Fields, also known as Carriage Mary
Carriage Mary was born in Tennessee in 1832 and was released
after the Civil War. During this time of new-found freedom, she moved north of
her work along the Mississippi River, where she worked as a servant to
families, and put down roots in Ohio, where she took refuge and took refuge in
a monastery.
In the monastery, she Maria worked as a gardener, often
fighting with other nuns. Maria was not a subordinate woman, although at that
time (and still today) white women believed that this should be the role of
black women; shut up and accept what is given to them.
Maria often resisted her words and she was not afraid to
stand up when she felt she was being mistreated. She was not afraid to come
into contact with anyone and, as you know, she was a "dirty word".
Maria was expelled from the monastery after she directed
fire, her weapon, at a janitor. This led Mary to hire the postal service in
1895, becoming the second woman to carry and deliver mail and the first black
woman. For eight years, Maria protected the mail from thieves and bandits. She
retired with an old-age pension at the beginning of the 20th century.
Erasing Maria
I painted this picture of Mary for you because, believe it
or not, Mary's historical context adjacent to her skin color and size is why Hollywood
would portray her as a "fair-skinned, slim, arrogant black woman ".
.. the strong, tall and strong black black that she was.
Mary Fields, also known as Stagecoach Mary
In Hollywood, as in many other cultures, black women and
older women still see masculine and "aggressive" black women, and if
you are masculine and aggressive, it is much more difficult for viewers to
believe that you may one day become a love interest. . . to your own story.
This is ironic because every historical male figure who was
supposed to be black has been abandoned by a black man. I really think this is ace
of the many reasons why Mary's diligence has not been adequately portrayed in
this new Netflix movie; because nobody falls in love with a fat black woman.
We still live in an era where fat black women and the most
marginalized people are considered to be less worthy of attention and care, so
when we watch TV, movies or any media to see a fat black woman During any
length of time that love is loving, the interest is laughable to most and
incredible at best.
Cartoons and stereotypes
I know from experience and see it every day when fat black
women and girls, especially black women, should never "have a boy."
Instead of being a lover, you are a bully. Stereotypes like these explain why
the caricature of the mom of fat black women as asexual is still in the media,
and why I continue to defend the racial identity of gordofobia.
Someone in the body that Zazie Bitz is in will never
experience the harm that someone in a body like Mary Fields' could suffer. When
you are a fat, tall, dark-skinned woman, you are subject to this type of
violence. And the media agrees. How can you focus on your love life when you
spend so much time staying alive and getting rid of harm?
