Eyes is the attempt to tell the story of the Civil Rights movement and to create an emotional, intellectual constituency. But what do you do after that? The black community doesn't have institutions that pick up such moments and preserve them.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Augen ist der Versuch, die Geschichte der Bürgerrechtsbewegung zu erzählen und einen emotionalen, intellektuellen Wahlkreis zu schaffen. Aber was machst du danach? In der schwarzen Gemeinschaft gibt es keine Institutionen, die solche Momente aufgreifen und sie erhalten.

Particularly black Americans, many of them, from quotes that I have seen and conversations I've had, are sort of insulted that the civil rights movement is being hijacked - the rhetoric of the civil rights movement is being hijacked for something like same sex marriage. Black Americans tend to have a higher degree of religiosity.
