That Al Sharpton was apparently the very first African American Sony chief Amy Pascal thought to call, when faced with heavy criticism over the racially-insensitive contents of leaked emails, has been a cause for concern for some of us, and even a reason for reflection on who the perceived so-called "leaders" of Black America are, and how they assumed that position.

They are: former head of diversity at Fox, Ron Taylor; actress Vivica A. Fox; Hollywood Black Film Festival...

Steven Spielberg's Jaws is one of my all time favorite films. I wasn't even born yet when it came out, but it is a piece of cinematic history. This is an incredible film that still continues to blow me away every time I watch it.
Jaws was released on June 20th 1975 and it gave birth to the modern day blockbuster film. It was the first film to open in hundreds of theaters across the country at the same time, and it ended up become the most successful movie of all time until Star Wars knocked it out two years later.
