Is Hollywood helping or hurting race relations?

Regardless of how you feel race relations in the country has been in the media spotlight for some time now and whether you like them or hate them the Black Lives Matter Movement is a part of national discourse that always captures attention. In my opinion the beginning was the Trayvon Martin/Zimmerman incident in FL and has only gained steam since.

Hollywood has no doubt jumped on the theme but my question is, are they helping or hurting? They spread a good message but does it take people's mind off reality? Does it make people complacent to see feel good fantasy? Are they only in it for the money?

-12 Years a Slave

-Django Unchained

-The Help

-The Butler

-Selma

-Roots miniseries remake

-Free State of Jones

-the new film coming out about Loving vs Virginia.

All stories of good triumphing over racism, but are they helping or are they hurting, or are they just for the money?What's the reality?
