Harriet Tubman
She gave us our freedom, why the hell not a film about her? And between the White washing and flat-out caricaturization of Tubman in Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter and the disrespect of her image by the Russell Simmons-backed “comedy sketch,” we need a film to both set the record straight and play proper homage.
Who should play her: Danai Gurira (“The Walking Dead”) as a young Tubman; Viola Davis as an older Tubman.
