A term used by white folk to shame (usually) black folks into being quiet about racism.

Reverse racism is a term used to describe acts of discrimination and prejudice perpetrated by racial minorities or historically oppressed ethnic groups against individuals belonging to the racial majority or historically dominant ethnic groups.[1] In other words, it is reverse discrimination based on racial criteria.

Usually segways into "It happened to us too! We're fine!" I.E. Slavery.

I see, thx. I think that term is weird, I just see racism is racism across the board. I don't subscribe to that term reverse racism. I believe everyone should be treated equally in terms of race.

Trying to monetize "controversy " through media productions is always a bad idea, especially when that controversy is still happening. This movie or show is bad idea just like that Pepsi ad was a bad idea because there is no possible way to make it a good idea. Black people are still being terrorized by police and you're playing cops and robbers for the camera. It's just no way to spin this into something commendable

Doesn't interest me. Good look anyway.

Me neither fam:scust:. I think it's ridiculous. Especially from fox. They targeting a Black audience from their shows: Gang Related, Empire & Rosewood. They're clearly trying to draw us to their network

Sound Reasoning

I've seen the promos for it. It's another "share the blame" thing for white supremacy. I won't watch it as I don't care to see issues of white supremacy be conflated and intersectionalized.

And I don't want to see impotent characters who act tough like Sanaa Lathan's character seems to be. Swaggering around like she's going to make some changes when she's going to make some quotable lines about white people and then be treated like a child at the end of the day.

And then they have the black male lawyer looking like a b#tch talking about justice in the courtroom appealing to the morality of jurors. All while working for a injust system that works with cops to continue to harm and kill people.

No thanks :russell:

Peace
