These entertainment negroes today are wired differently. Most ain't built for the struggle. Decadent veil, it is what it is.


I know as artists they just want to be judged by their work and their talent but this world ain't colorblind. We don't exist in a vacuum where the history of racism and oppression didn't exist.
Dude grew up differently

Normally I would hit this with the :mjpls: but I’m sure dude is tired of it, since get out his career is basically defined by race.

he probably can’t even go into an audition not related to race without getting the :mjpls:

You guys are aware that race such as (white, black, yellow and whatever) is a social construct right? It's that theres been so much put into it by humans that we have made it to be real. The scary thing is that the world pretty much is ran by a concept that has no real legit merit other than what other humans have created in their heads even by misusing science. Unfortunately since its been made out to be real, we have to face the reality of a concept being forced to be legitimized despite it being something made up for reasons of power specifically from Europe to conquer the world.

He didn’t say anything wrong. Being aware of race and cognizant about how race can affect his life is fine, it’s just not necessary to be incessantly preoccupied with it.

A lot of militants on this site aren’t trying to hear that though
Basically. Coli militants want to twist his words out of context. act like he said he doesn't believe he's black or he doesn't wanna be black or racism doesn't exist. Breh simply said yo I'm black, there's a lot of challenges and history that go along with that. But can we talk about movies and acting tho?

Heard this for years and never agreed with it.

There are physical and physiological differences between people of different races.

With all due respect, the "race is is just a social construct" is a copout.

So you agree with the concept of white supremacy then? Is that what you're saying because thats why the concept of race basically came from. Have you ever done any research to find out the history of race or who came up with that shyt? To me, it sounds like you have a hard time accept the fact that you like millions or billions of people have been duped. I'm sure a lot of people would freak out if we found out with proof that the bible was a fictional book. As I said, it's a concept because theres no legit scientific proof that it's real.


But obviously since we live in a world that treats it like it's real where societies have been built around it, we have to treat it like it's real. Even when we dont, we are forced to. Lets keep it 100, nobody was born into the world knowing that shyt. We found out from the world around us and had to adapt to the given situation.

this is the problem with c00n nikkaz when they get to play poignant black roles. Which are also made by c00n nikkaz as well.

this is apart of the tricknology that Cosby did to blow the dust off the faq, Glenn Thurman.
after of course his gay weak ass was jd in jd revenge.

this is bullshyt.

I love you and all - but you stay giving passes like this. This shyt is blatant.

He lives in England -- yet portray AA's in Hollywood films. He's asked/interviewed about THAT - and those he portrays. Yet, he doesn't want to talk about it -- he's bored.

We bored with his acting, disrespect and personality.
When the full interview is posted, we can see exactly what question he is responding to with his reply.

They leaked his comments to build up demand for the interview.

Here is the EXACT same actor checking an (british) interviewer during the Oscars years ago



direct link if it doesn't play



Daniel Kaluuya subtly but expertly shut down an interviewer on the Oscars red carpet on Sunday night who claimed his film Get Out ‘ticked a lot of boxes’. The 29-year-old was in high spirits as he made his way down the red carpet answering questions ahead of the 90th Academy Awards last night – but he made sure a rather perplexing statement did not ruin his mood. Rather he responded rather eloquently in the exchange, although the most awkward bit did not make it to the network’s cut on social media. However, shocked viewers captured the moment and posted it on social media for all to
What does telling this story mean to you?’
In return, he asked: ‘In what sense?’
The reporter responded: ‘It’s got so much attention, it’s a very different story, it ticks a lot of boxes in some ways, it raises very important things.’

We’re not boxes, though,
Articulating black experiences aren’t boxes—it’s our truth. We’re human beings,’ he said. ‘And it’s amazing that Blumhouse, QC Entertainment and Universal have empowered Jordan [Peele] to tell his side of the story, to have a black protagonist…it doesn’t mean you have to compromise cinematic technique"

This video was partially scrubbed from the internet.

I've noted and pointed out eye brow raising comments from actors before, but i've never gotten that vibe from him.
I think it's fair to judge people based on their words and actions but I think in this case he's guilty by association because he's a Brit actor being cast in hollywood films by American decision makers.
