I love Blazing Saddles, but I think a lot of people don't get that you couldn't make it today. Or think it's a problem that you couldn't make it today. The thing is, Blazing Saddles was incredibly transgressive for its time. It's important. It highlighted and made fun of the ridiculousness of racism!

But we've also progressed as a society.

We can still love Blazing Saddles, or movies like the Rocky Horror Picture Show, but realize their cultural and historical context, and the fact that today's cultural context is not the same. The jokes that were a slap in the face for racists in the 70s are just racist today. And that's okay!

It's a fantastic movie, but it is also a product of its time.

*nods* Blazing Saddles was made in 1974.

So were films like Foxy Brown, Black Godfather, Black Samson -- and The Klansman.

1974 was also the year that civil right leader W S McIntosh was killed in Dayton, that Heuey Lewis was arrested for murder (and passed leadership of the Black Panthers to Elaine Brown).

That a film showed white townspeople ultimately cheering the leadership of a black sheriff was DAMN transgressive at the time.

You mean Huey P. Newton?

Huey Lewis is a totally different guy.
