“...In many ways, the conservative outrage in the United States about “Cuties” and the sexually explicit @iamcardib and @megtheestallionn song “WAP” is a reminder that in a country where Black women and girls were once treated as property, there are few things as threatening as their ability to make choices about their own bodies.

Critics of “Cuties” are zeroing in on images from the trailer and the poster, which show a group of 11-year-olds in blue costumes, shorts, dancing suggestively. #MaimounaDoucoure was not consulted in the marketing of the film, which Netflix later apologized for. The furor led QAnon conspiracy theorists and armchair activists to demand that Netflix be boycotted for supporting pedophilia and child pornography.

...In a Post op-ed, Doucouré explains that she intended her film to “start a debate about the sexualization of children” and that the film is her own story of juggling two cultures. To those saying that “Cuties” sends an inappropriate message about sexuality, I would ask: What message does it send to Black women and girls in America when, in order to win top awards, Black actresses have to film graphic sex scenes with a racist White male character (Halle Berry in “Monster’s Ball”) or play an enslaved girl who is brutally raped by a White man (Lupita Nyong’o in “12 Years a Slave”)?
.

In France’s own movie culture, Black women are barely represented at all. The last film that received international praise and attention about Black immigrant girls was “Girlhood.” The director, Céline Sciamma, a White woman, based the story on her observations of Black teenagers in Paris’s poor banlieues. In interviews, she said she wanted to make the film because Black stories and faces were so absent in French media. But while Sciamma’s “Girlhood” was showered with awards and critical praise, an aggressive public campaign in the United States is targeting “Cuties.” As soon as a French-Senegalese woman decided to make a culturally authentic film about a first-generation immigrant girl becoming aware of her own body outside of the male or White gaze, outrage ensued.”
