In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide.

The comedy subgenre of “oh crap I’m pregnant and not ready to have a baby” is fertile ground. Pun intended. Recent years have brought us the likes of Juno, Knocked Up and Waitress, and to that list we add the focus of this episode: Babes.
