cinema3way ep3.2-genre films- "The Mack"

The genre of Blaxploitation has been derided by critics and many organizations such as the NAACP, Southern Christian Leadership Conference, and National Urban League; who contributed to the demise of the genre in the late 1970's.  However, many of the films did realistically represent the black urban experience, like The Mack, which has had a huge influence on American culture.  If you haven't seen it, listen to the show and watch it- participate in our 3way!  Comments & shares welcome!
