Both could be correct, at least politically, and still miss the main point. Yes, the Indians are very nice people here, which is a nice thing. And yes, the real Pocahontas probably didn't have Tina Turner's posture and Iman's neck. She probably didn't sing Broadway-style songs either or talk to a clever raccoon and a persnickety hummingbird. Maybe John Smith didn't look like Fabio and sound like Mel Gibson (who speaks the role). But this is a movie-a cartoon, for goodness' sake! It is a boy-meets-girl, boy-gets-girl, boy-loses...
...same fate could have befallen Iman Reed. At age 11, Iman liked to pick fights on the streets of Wichita, Kansas, making him a prime target for a revenge shooting. Then his mom enrolled him in a Big Brother program, which paired him with a police detective. Five years later, Iman is pulling down A's and B's in school, and has his sights set on a law degree. Reflecting back, he concludes, "If I wasn't in the program, I'd be in one of those gangs." Or dead...
Sneakers and Iman personify what's really at stake in the debate over America's No. 1 concern.

In fact his happy marriage to the stunning Iman has inspired much of the material on his upcoming solo album, his first in six years. Just recorded, Bowie says it "will examine the twists and turns of companionship." He adds, "All my albums start out bleak and veer toward the depressing. This one will let the sun shine through." Sunshine, yes, and a little sax playing from Major...
Price's huge risk paid off handsomely, but it still exacted a price: expectations for Singleton's future projects will be even higher. So far, Singleton seems to be handling the pressure nicely. Earlier this year, he directed Michael Jackson, Eddie Murphy and Iman in the lavish music video Remember the Time. The director gave himself a cameo role as a camel driver. Next month Singleton will get down to more serious business when he begins shooting his original screenplay Poetic Justice, a lyrical look at relationships between black men and women...
