“If you aren’t American and come here to play us in movies don’t talk bad about us in interviews”

So wakandans wouldn't be c00ns for looking out for their own people, but us Americans are for doing the same? How does that work?

once again, how americans looking out for their own people

Its called acting, this is the free market, if the british actor is the best actor and can do the american accent they will get the part its the American Way

If you want to look out for americans start your own production company like Tyler Perry
who's been looking it for black american actors and get shytted on and called a c00n ironically lmao

fukking morons, its up the producer of each film who they hire, you can't look out for one because you don't produce anything, its not your place to tell someone else who to hire with their money

Americans have played Africans all the time, nobody cared

get outta here with this fake out rage, you weak ass c00ns make me sick

How is wanting Americans to have american roles c00ning?

 

[Nigerianwonder]

Can't call shots when you don't sign checks. Nothing stopping ados from funding their own movies.

And lakeith is only half right. Black immigrants don't get any passes from white supremacy. Ask Amadiu Diallo. Ask the Haitians in the hood in miami. Not sure where this foolish narrative came from. Racist prefer ados black women in the work place to ados black men as well. Doesnt mean they dont practice racism against them. All blacks are at the bottom of the ladder in white supremacists nations.

I must admit it's quite interesting to see these issues of migration/identity/nationalism play within the Black Diaspora.

Because that's not how acting works, you're hating on a british actor playing a role

but when an american is playing a non american black, you have no problem with it

its a crab mentality

you audition for a role and you either get it or you don't, never in the history of a film did you need to be a certain nationality to play another nationality, the shyt is ridiculous and down right bytch made to ever utter out of your mouth

I like how y’all collectively and conveniently miss the point of what he was saying

 

[Kerkum]

This has been happening with Africans/Foreign Blacks for years, even decades probably. It's only a problem now because us Black Americans are starting to peep how things really are.
