And while Hollywood reaped financial gains from these depictions, the rest of the country saw an ever widening 'opportunity gap' between marginalized groups and mainstream society, as well as an increase in juvenile violence. These events added to the existing discomfort of the viewing public with representations of young black males living in urban ghettos. 606 $aAfrican Americans in motion pictures 606 $aYouth in motion pictures 615 0$aAfrican Americans in motion pictures. 615 0$aYouth in motion pictures. 676 $a791.43/652996073 700 $aFisher$b Celeste A$01632361 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816689603321 996 $aBlack on Black$93971429 997 $aUNINA
