Bamboozled (2000): Directed by Spike Lee, this satirical film uncomfortably explores race depiction and stereotype in the media. As a Harvard educated black writer becomes fed up when his tame ideas about modern black families are ignored, he devises a plan to point out stereotyping and prejudice in the media. He proposes a risky show with African-American actors in black face. To his shock and surprise, the network and, in turn, America loves it.
