After a hundred comments, finally the voice of reason. He’s talented. And also, I need to clean with hand sanitizer from the great distance of merely watching him on TV. Major ick.

Saying they’re rumors is weak, and for me, points at a truth. “Rumors” suggests where there’s smoke there’s fire. Saying “they are totally baseless, unfounded accusations,” is how you refute something. His response alone to me, gives credence to the rumors. He needs a pr person or lawyer to shut this all the way down…

Thanks for your honest post as well. <3

I’d never thought of it in these terms. Truth.

BOOM! And with that nasty response you just proved everything she said about you to be true. Fall back on the “bitter” black woman stereotype instead of simply remaining silent and realizing voices like yours are heard all too often or trying to reflect and understand some of what she was trying to say. I also dislike…

Thank you for your bravery and insight sis. I almost bought the bridge she was selling.

This. Sums up everything we’ve been living since the advent of 45. Thank you!

Scenes like Cville make POC (and others) feel unsafe. 45 and the things he condones makes this man, his sister and children feel unsafe. He has to cut ties with someone, even his own mom, who supports a ideology that he feels is threatening and menacing towards his safety and right to exist.

and brandishing tiny baseball bats?

but wait, what are your mornings like, tho? can we trade jobs? : - )

Love this comment. Also, Kim gets a major pass, and lands one of the BIGGEST rappers in the game, even though she made a sex tape. SMDH.

no, just racism.

black chyna has been trash since day one , but poor widdle wobbie just needs a therapist? quietly, she probably has more legit reason for acting like a clown. he has had access to a good education and all kinds of help his whole life. anyhoo, F you and your casual racism. g’day!

no, it has succeeded. this is what craven capitalism, classism, sexism and racism get you. amerikuh.

I really hope she’s paying you to shill for her, but probably not since her film will make no money. Is anti-Muslim, anti-Middle Eastern sentiment a pet issue to you too? Because African Americans and the racism they face aren’t a subculture. African Americans helped build this country and the racism they face is not…

No one has time to watch this trash.

Your ignorant snark (Ana, is that you?) won’t fix this. If you don’t want to be accountable for how you treat minorities in your film, then leave them out of the story. Murder of black characters early and often on film is a textbook racist trope. So don’t do a Q&A and get irritated by the Q’s and the need to provide…

Great article.

Denzel has had his moments of deserved recognition and will have more I’m sure. But it must be hard to be great and not get the Meryl Streep treatment. (She doesn’t win every time, but she’s been appropriately recognized for her talent). For his talent, Denzel should have at least 4 more Oscars, including this year.…
