Why is it...

Why is it that every time a primarily black-casted movie is released, it's dubbed an "urban" movie. I was flipping through this weekend's box office top ten (which was almost offensive as the phenominal "Hero" made only slightly more that "Without A Paddle" which one could argue as one of the worst films ever...and not just in theaters), and I noticed they labeled that new movie "Cookout" an "urban comedy". Really? It can't just be a comedy in an urban setting? Nope. Since it's cast is, I'm sure, almost entirely black, it has to be "urban". You'll never see a black person in the suburbs. Nope...never gonna happen. It's like the term "inner city". Yeah...that means "black". not once have I ever heard of the "outer city". Does such a place exist? Sure...but it's populated by white people. By that logic it doesn't need a special name because we won't talk about it much. White people suck ass...and I'm ashamed to be a part of them. Isn't there some fringe group I can branch off to that's white but doesn't call themselves that? I mean one that's not racist, opf course.
