not often...but if they're making romantic interacial flicks(ex. somthing new) society is more accepting of "different" than it used to be. with this new perspective i'm hoping more films like the one you describe will pop more and more as society is becoming so "accepting"?lol

I do. $$$. Look at at this way. If one or two women, even powerful ones like Beyonce and Halle, stand up and say we're not putting up with this shit any longer they don't have enough power to change the entire industry. It takes a majority to change that type of thinking.
In the meantime a black entertainer could make $1 million looking naturally dark or she could make tenfold that if she just lightens up a few shades and plays the game. If she chooses not to the ONLY thing that happens is she makes less while everyone continues to cash in. There are way more black women than there are opportunities for successful black women so if she turns a job down they'll find somebody else before the day is done.
You can take it all the way back to 18th century Europe with white people. It was fashionable to be ghost white because darker whites were laborers; It was a status symbol.
