Thandie Newton: "All My Career, I’ve Felt Like To Black People, I’m Not A Legitimate Black Person"

[Mike Nasty]

first time I saw Thandie was in Mission Impossible 2 and didn't even realize she was black

She was the creepy ghost girl in Beloved.

I never thought that she was anything other than a black woman playing black woman roles
I was introduced to her via....

• mission impossible 2
• beloved
• Gridlock'd
  
• crash

With that early catalog it was very obvious who I was dealing with later.

Not legitimate to Black people where?

Maybe overseas but certainly not in the US

BUT YOU MARRIED A WHITE MAN...

Close thread

I thought her and Zoe saldana were the same people

I get em confused too

Everything she do is white. Why would a person see you as black? It's not like she's a Boris Kodjoe.

Her bush in Beloved was 100% negro

When she was on E.R she had a British accent. That was when the show had already jumped the shark.

I dont get why people expect so much of Black folks..she's equally white, does she crave to be ssen as a legitimate white woman?

They'll never answer this question, ever.

She's talking about black people not accepting her but name a single white person who thought she was 100% white? Name one


And if not, why not?

I've never heard a negative thing said about her by the black community for her to be lashing out like we've done her a disservice.

She's a biracial woman with a white husband, future mother to a white family, she should mind her damn business.

That's a black brit problem.

Not ours so
