‘Star Wars’ Calls Out Racism Against Moses Ingram, Tells ‘Obi-Wan’ Viewers: ‘Don’t Choose to Be Racist’

Why the one black character a space fascist

Honestly, we need more black villains in fiction. Like Simon Phoenix and Killmonger.

 

[NoMoreWhiteWoman2020]

I just remembered. My dad was into the Full Gospel/Word of Faith/Assemblies of God churches back in the day. There was a white guy at the church who named all his daughters with Biblical male names. I know they caught hell when they got older.

That’s almost as bad as naming your kids after the month they are born in. I got three aunts with the May/Mae name and guess their birthdays. I’ve also met a January and September down here

 

[Still Benefited]

I do think they need to stop paying these online goofy racist trolls attention. Stop giving em what they want. Ignore all these clowns who pop shot but wouldn’t in real life

Its part of the analyticals. Hire a black person in what appears to be a leading role to work the racist nerds in a frenzy. Get Star Wars trending as a topic. Then pull the switcharoo and give them the John Boyega treatment


Black people need to stop interacting. These companies know what they are doing. We are only adding to their analyticals.#IndifferenceIsPower #ObserversEffect

Haven’t watched yet but her role isn’t Boyega’d from what I’ve heard from nikkaz I trust

Her acting and how they've written her character has been awful and hard to watch.

It's not the reason why the whiteboys are going at her (we know they don't want black faces in their precious white fantasy IP) but man how they've done here is how they did Finn.

She's making the show unwatchable.

Another Disney Okie Doke.

These tv shows and movies are white peoples way of escaping black people. They get extremely angry when black people come into their spaces. Even if they’re fictional.

lmao fact

Where’s this coming from tho.

There’s only been 2 episodes and she barely had any dialog or am I trippin

Mind you, I’m not a Star Wars fan…as I think the entire thing is warmed over trash, but I didn’t see anything in her performance that was any less ridiculous than the fast in the furious homie in toothpaste colored makeup

 

[RARI_Godwind]

All them fcking alierms robutts laser beams and Midichlorians but they still shocked & chagrin over the fact a Black person exists

Cacs man. Different breed of delusion.

They've told her to overact, notice how everyone else on the show is acting subdued and ISN'T overacting?

They've made her an over the top scowling "angry black woman" in a cast where she is the ONLY black character.


That is not an accident that is by DESIGN.

and hold up The Asian alien is Han from Fast and Furious

 

[Hater Eraser]

She's cute to me .. is she lezzi or a wench before I decide ?

 

[I Really Mean It]

Right. For me "racism" is often times just preferential treatment and being partial to your own kind over others (it's not necessarily personal). But when you're on the outside of that, it comes off different.

That's not to say there aren't also flagrant vindictive overt racists as well out here, but I feel as though those types are the minority among the white populace.

You’re mistaking prejudice for racism. Racism is a system of oppression expressly designed to harm black people. Whether it’s “personal” or not is irrelevant.

 

[George's Dilemma]

Not gonna lie, she looks outta place on some Darth Yasss ish. Real talk, looks like the casting head was a fan of Insecure and said fukk it. She's a very attractive woman though. I wish her well dealing with that fandom. I hope the money and profile is worth it, dealing with that element of cacdom.

 

[TreySav]

Star Wars fan base be like:

Space wizards

Aliens


Black woman ?
