Biracial actress Amandla Stenberg on dropping out of Black Panther, believed she wasn't black enough

[twhatever]

So she biracial huh? I thought both her parent's were black. She do know it's light skin Africans? I guess she know people are ignorant and didn't want backlash like when she died in that Movie Hunger Game's that white racist gave her.

Ppl pointing out that Hollywood often casts light skin or biracial ppl (bc they're more palatable in a white dominated industry)isn't the same as a white racist targeting her in Hunger Games.

She knows a certain segment of black women would've been salty as fukk about her casting.

She's been on thecoli

If this is true then i appreciate her understanding this is bigger than her and taking one for the team by falling on the sword.

The United States is the land of bullshyt lawsuits and she could have easily fought them and didnt because she understood what was at stake at a higher level

Again, if this is true.

Good move on her part. I'm sick and tired of seeing half white people playing blacks on tv.

You're the mutt that hates his black side, dont speak.

This breh brought up a picture of a half-white Ghanaian actor saying "see there are light skinned Africans"...

What role was it?

There really wasn't a prominent role a bi-racial could have played

The Coli is a weird place. Bunch of Africans with rich immigrant parents who try to claim American black pop culture as their own while shytting on the actual descendants of slaves in America. American blacks and Africans are not the same people. Ironically, this "mixed" chick looks blacker than all of you Afric00ns who have no ancestors who were slaves in America.
