I've noticed that in mainstream US films a Black man and a Black woman
seem to cancel each other out sexually. The only exception is if they
are married, for example Enemy of the State If its targeting Black
audiences then Black on Black sexually is okay.

Mendez is an example of how, because the white guys in hollywood are afraid of
creating black man/black woman love stories as black films, and black
man/white woman roles are still verboten, they get Latinas or mixed-race women
