I personally think of Sidney as a groundbreaking actor, but I know we got some militant ass nikkas on the Coli:russ:


Hero: Slapped a CAC on film back in the 60s ("In the Heat of the Night"), first black man to win the Best Actor Academy Award, one of the first black A-list actors, unafraid to appear in movies that challenged racial norms of the day

c00n: Made movies about falling in love with a blind, uneducated, white trash cave bytch ("A Patch of Blue") and a floozy white broad ("Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?"), left his black wife for a cave bytch

So what do ya'll nikkas think? Was he a hero or a c00n? :ohhh:

Out here in my damn drawls
:wtb:Don't try to project your conflicting opinions about Poitier onto us :pachaha:. Tell us the truth; On one hand you think he's a hero, but on the other hand, you think he's a c00n that likes "cave bytches".


Unburden yourself and say it breh. We don't have neg reps anymore brotha, free yourself :blessed:

He's earned the right to do whatever he wants. Anyone that may have looked to him as a role model is already old enough to think for his/herself. We don't know what kinds of things he had to do in order to get where he did. If you think hollywood is demonic today, just imagine how it was back before things like the internet and cell phones. Back then it was a lot easier to keep things secret.

in all seriousness Sidney is far from being a c00n..

alot of u nikkas need to do your history before posing stupid azz questions..

First off he came around in a era where black actors was maid, servants, ORIGINAL c00n DANCING and saying yes sirrrr & yessss mam, u like butta on that bread type of bullshyt roles..

all his roles he showed white people that black people was more than that.. we had pride a mind and the ability to hold ourselves among others.
