From Homer to Hoke: A Small Step for African American Mankind.
Turner, Patricia A.
Journal of Negro Education, v60 n3 p342-53 Sum 1991
Explores links between two films, "Lilies of the Field" (1962) and "Driving Miss Daisy" (1987), their portrayal of African-American men in relationships with White women, and audience and critic responses to the films. Little has changed in the Hollywood perceptions since the earlier film was made. (JB)
