@jelani9 Hilary Swank in “Freedom Writers,” Emma Stone in “The Help,” Kevin Costner in “Hidden Figures,” Harrison Ford in “42.” I could keep going, but then you’d need some kind of play-in tournament.

[Justin Gomer @professorgomer]

@jelani9 Don’t forget Sissy Spacek in “The Long Walk Home,” the FBI agents in”Mississippi Burning,” Alec Baldwin’s character in “Ghosts of Mississippi,” and so on...

[Justin Gomer @professorgomer]

@jelani9 If you’re interested, I cover the origins and history of Hollywood White Savior films in my new book, “White Balance: How Hollywood Shaped Colorblind Ideology and Undermined Civil Rights” with @uncpressblog https://t.co/tEHER4WyUG
