Alfre Woodard on Crooklyn (1994) for R29:

“To my knowledge, we hadn’t seen a Black family that was just presented as we are in life, as human beings,” Woodard said. “I get told in Belgium by white Belgians ‘I love Crooklyn, it reminds me of growing up.’ Which is what happens when you tell a story from a specific point of view, you don’t have to mention race. You didn’t get up this morning like ‘I’m a black woman that wants a cup of coffee.’ You just want a cup of coffee. It was us as we are. Just us being fabulous, complex, funny, delightful, and making ends meet. And seeing, even within that story, that we’re not monolithic...The specificity is what makes it universal. Diversity is not the point; showing reality is the point.”

Film & TV I Think About A Lot » Crooklyn (1994) dir. Spike Lee

At least my hair isn't standing on my head sticking straight out looking all like Topsy. I don't know who Topsy is, but it looks stupid, and I can't stand it. I can't stand you either. Why don't you sit down with your ol' Black self? I'm Black and I'm proud. She got good hair. She got "Peter" Rican hair.
