I don't hate #GuavaIsland. But I do want an honest convo to begin about how Blackness in the mainstream is almost always whittled down to "Black Americanism" when the diaspora is MUCH bigger than us ADOS. We can't always speak for *every* DOS experience. http://colorwebmag.com/2019/04/13/mo-reviews-guava-island/

The synopsis for #GuavaIsland stands as a cool premise for a film--someone tries to take on the system with the power of music. But where Guava Island's concerned, I have some questions. http://bit.ly/2GauYAB

It's not as if I hate #GuavaIsland. But with all of that fun, I am left asking what the film's purpose is. http://bit.ly/2GauYAB

I know a lot of people are going to say I'm reading too much into this film. But I don't know what Donald Glover wants to say with it. Seems like he wants to pretend to say a lot. #GuavaIsland http://colorwebmag.com/2019/04/13/mo-reviews-guava-island/

I say I had fun watching #GuavaIsland, but as I wrote, I came away more disaffected than I realized. I think I'm actually annoyed. Review coming tonight.
About to watch #GuavaIsland. For some reason, I have trepidation.
