you read for knowledge and to gain introspection

something you lack


so pls stfu ap and head to your nearest library
gain introspection about the same trauma porn you just tried to scold us for?

i know you really dont give a shit about this topic as evidenced by you just jumping in on page 8 of the discussion so....yeah...i dont think you in a position to tell me what i lack
 
you dont need an on screen adaptation to learn about Fred Hampton. you should have been studied his life and started implementing some of his teachings into your every day life


but no, yall still running to the ballot box and allowing hollyweird to control our images and narratives

weak is as weak does
find one post in here that said what you are suggesting

who in here has said "damn, im glad they making this so i can finally learn more about him"

Like I said why can't you do both?
 
if we were really about some shit we would be petitioning to have the entire movie cancelled lmao

niggas are worried about the actors, why the fuck are we getting a Fred Hampton movie centered around his killer???


are yall on crack?
 
My only issue with Kaluuya is the shit he said about being "bored" of talking about race and he not wanting his career to be defined by it. Which is fair as it's his career, but I think it's fair to ask, why does he keep taking those sort of roles if he's so bored of having to talk about it?

He even said himself that he came to America because he wasn't getting roles because of the racism over there.

"The actor recently said that he wasn't able to get certain roles due to the color of his skin in England. "I was going for a lot of stuff [in England]," the Queen and Slim star told the Sunday Times. "But I wasn't getting roles because of the color of my skin. It wasn't fair. It was a trap."

I just find it pretty audacious, tbh.
 
If we owned more studios.....Problem solved.

But it's a lot that can be said about all this
