Parker is still scheduled to appear at the Toronto Film Festival, but a source in communication with him says that he’s in a low place. He vacillates between thinking the case is resurfacing now after 17 years because of a Hollywood conspiracy against him or just bad luck. He’s disappointed over the backlash on social media and that the African-American online community hasn’t been more supportive. And he’s even mad at himself, for underestimating the public’s interest in a court case that happened so long ago.

I got love for Nate Parker. I support him and will support this film. But did anyone hear ol girl on Tariq's show Sunday said he seems a little c00nish to marry the women that keep getting his ass in trouble. Going with Fox (the same company bringing Bill Oreilly) instead of the brutha man Byron Allen. And as Tariq mentioned a company like Fox will buy your shyt just to shelve it.


I ain't mad but I gotta admit Nate signing that movie with FOX is the reason for all this shyt. I seriously doubt this would've happened going with Byron Allen

As Black person I'm kind of disappointed with NP.

I share your sentiments and I'm disappointed that this talented and determined young brother married a cac (or Hispanic, whatever, it's anti black). From a pro black point of view, Nate Parker is a troubled figure however one looks at him. That said I am still going to support the movie for what it's message and the story it tells. I can tell Nate wants to be pro black but just took some wrong turns on the road.
