But part of me feels that I betrayed myself and my people, because that I took part in a movie that was not ready [to tell the whole truth] ", - said Davis. The actress is confident that the movie was made for" white audiences. "" White audiences can at best learn an academic lesson on how everything was. Then they walk out of the theater and discuss what it all meant. They are not touched by who we were then, "she complained.
