Cannot find sufficient references to establish notability, or even common usage of this term. I see what the author is getting at, but it seems like original research to me. Osubuckeyeguy (talk) 05:09, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete While the article as written does have the "feel" of OR and the feel of trying to create a neologism whre non exists, the term is not competely unsourcable and has occasionally been used to describe the mixed race of films as listed. In Slow fade to black: the Negro in American film by Thomas Cripps ISBN 0195021304, we have "When black meets white, Robeson coolly fingers a bedspread..." In Hauntings: popular film and American culture by Joseph P. Natoli ISBN 0791421538, we have "This is the point when black meets white." There are a few other examples in books covering mixed race films, and the term is used in a very few news articles,[1] BUT is it not something of recent use, nor is a widely used term. The sparse limited use of the term does not inpart any particuar notability. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 06:43, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete True but not notable. Do we already have an article on Buddy cop movie? Borock (talk) 13:00, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
