Michael B. Jordan Addresses Controversy: 'I Believe Black Lives Matter'

[LadySimone]

I'm not, you're just proving my point though thanks.

Always glad to help.

 

[Big Boss]

Black women still read essence?

they still go to the music festival

 

[Thinking on a toilet]

So not ALL Michael Jordans are on that

I feel like such an idiot not noticing his name was Michael Jordan

 

[onelastdeath]

I hate that. Every time someone black and successful makes one mistake its "Im not supporting him anymore "

Yall support white actors, musicians, and directors and aritists who directly benefit from white privilege and most of them KNOW IT, who have nothing to say about the BC.

Yet a black actor says one thing yall dont like and its boycott time.

fukk outta here with that. Support all his movies. Every single last one of them. Because him being in a position to succeed is important for black youth coming up. Just being able to directly relate and see someone like them doing something positive is vital.

Bunch of people in here who themselves do nothing for that community in here talking down about him. fukk OUTTA HERE. ONCE AGAIN

 

[LadySimone]

I want the black women in here to pay close attention to the responses in here by black men.

When you talk about the money, that's when they want to grow a conscience. Trust and believe if he was some athlete whose money largely came from non black males MBJ could say whatever subtle or not so subtle thing about black people or black women but because he works in an industry that relies on public appeal he trying to back track.

Black women: recognise your power. Understand that these black men ain't shyt without you. They don't hire, educate, provide medical care, or political representation to you so you are not beholden to them. The responses in here are proof that they need you more than you need them.

Lol. Lets see how many bw flood the theatre because hes in it. Thats gonna drop dramatically. Thats what we do for morris, denzel, will smith, and idris we show the fukk out and your movie wont flop. Mbj needs to take a page out of those 4 and shut his fukking yap. Dont undermine your core loyal audience because best believe these white folks are fickle as hell.

that's bullshyt...denzel, will, idris, etc talk all the damn time....they've said shyt people agree with, shyt people don't agree with....and yet, we still support them....now, cause this cat said something some dont agree with, yall advocating not supporting him?...I swear, sometimes we worse than white people when it comes to dealing with our own...

U a dumb muthafukka

@ one mistake. Maybe u need to do your GOOGLES on MBJ b4 u try to sound off on others numbnuts. Now take that entire post and shove it up ya ass. All up in ya ass

 

[TMNT4000]

We keep telling y'all we give our support to whoever we want. That's the beauty of money and power. You don't have to be fair or consistent. Interesting how you trying to get all holy with black women's resources but get quiet as a church mouth with white folks.

Likewise you can boycott whichever bedwench you want will waxing poetically about the virtue of a bed buck.

Lol, as I said before ain't mad on bw on boycotting bm celebrities for dating out(actully I agree with it).

I'm just at the on the hypocrisy and outrage on Michael B Jordan comments vs other bw celebrities who was more blatant with throwing bm under the bus.

And are you talking about on the bold?

I shouldnt have to. If his movie in the movie theater you should go see it. He's a black man. And I'd rather give my money to a Black man than anyone else

No matter what

Michael will be fine and I will be supporting him.

We as black men need to start supporting one another because everyone else just wants to take us down and see us fall.
