To answer your question effectively, I'd need to know the specific film or TV show you’re referring to. However, I can provide some general themes and ideas regarding how the characters of African American individuals are often portrayed in comparison to non-African American characters in media.

In many films and TV shows, the development of African American characters can highlight themes like resilience, identity, and the impact of societal and cultural challenges. These characters may face unique struggles tied to their racial identity, which can lead to rich, complex story arcs that reflect their personal growth as they navigate systemic racism, community ties, and cultural heritage.

On the other hand, non-African American characters might be portrayed with different narrative arcs that may not engage with these particular socio-cultural challenges. Their development could focus on individual aspirations, romantic relationships, or professional achievements without necessarily addressing the intersection of race in their experiences.

Moreover, there can be a disparity in how much screen time and depth the African American characters receive compared to their counterparts, reflecting broader systemic issues in media representation.

If you provide a specific film or television show, I could offer a more tailored comparison of character development!
