Not walking it back. She regrets “half” because she meant “all”.

amazon has a pretty good nat turner doc streaming on prime right now!

I really love her and her strong voice as a survivor inspires me to be more open about my own assault (I actually told a friend I’ve know since 4th grade about my assault this weekend). I agree with what she is saying about double standards - I mean, that is pretty clear. But I still don’t want to support Nate Parker.

What really gets me is that the rape depicted in the film is not a part of Nat Turner’s narrative. I know that rape was used as a weapon against slaves and I am not trying to diminish that at all, but I am really uncomfortable with the idea of watching a movie with a rape scene written by two men who themselves were

Was this movie framed as “a movement” before the rape information came out about Parker?

Two words: beautifully put.

I don’t like giving my money to rapists and homophobes, so I’ll pass on this thank you.

More like good PR.

Gabrielle Union is a treasure, but even her participation and support will not make me see this movie. I don’t begrudge her, but Nate Parker isn’t getting a dime of my money.

I support Gabrielle Union, but I’m not going to see this movie. I already know the story of Nat Turner, I’m already an activist, I’m already angry and heartbroken and working my ass off to change things. As a survivor, the fact that this movie has violence and rape in it, and was led by a rapist, means that this movie

You know how Fox could solve this whole thing? Give the movie away.

I’m not giving my money to a rapist, period. I get that Gabrielle is trying to make something positive come out of this, but no, sorry.

So .... Gabrielle Union thinks the “concerned 10%” should just hug it out and get over themselves, because there’s money to be made. How would she feel if her rapist was the one who directed and starred in this film?

How many more times is this same story going to be written?

No offense Gabrielle but I still ain't seeing it

Because while one biographer believes this was their fate, it wasn’t clear whether it has been established via record (death certificate, etc). That makes sense, seeing as record-keeping was not consistent at the time. Some of my family also almost certainly died in the Holocaust, but the Nazis did not do us the

Even though it’s a huge team effort, fans couldn’t help but wonder if he would end up thanking his former flame if he won — since T-Swift could have been a source of inspiration.

Mel B, even if that’s true, it’s not very nice.

What’s disturbing to me is how often this photo and the (accurate) story behind it has been in the news in my lifetime and how that’s really done nothing to change people’s minds about it.

I hate that photo. So much.
