Slightly confused here but shouldn’t it be Hollywood apologizing?

They chose her. Just like they choose everyone else of lighter color, and just like they choose to constantly tell racist stories.

What and why is she apologizing for?

If you British, and you don't know... then we definitely do not know.

Hollywood should, but it goes even further. Racism has so many of us "screwed up" that we fight each other over something known as Colorism, and we may internalize it not realizing that we didn't cause the problem in the first place.

Da fuck she talking about. She always came off as the type to not to really fuck with black folk
Just live your life free of guilt and shame imposed by others.
Too much to see and do to worry about what others think.

Its the effects that "race science" has put on people...particularly people of African descent.

Nah bruh.. Its always Black Americans fault. Imagine her filling a role created by and for Black American Women and then her lecturing down to those same women while playing victim. Then imagine accusing them of accusing you of taking their men when you've been married to and procreating with the cac for over 20 years.

These people are delusional man.

I didn't know she was British but the should feel some guilt cause like I've said before their skipping over black actors and choosing them and it's like their being used so regularly we aren't seeing any new black actors at all;Hollyweird does what it does but some of these British actors have to realized their part in this new wave and curve it.

TP is doing his thing and even though I don't care for seeing Madea again at least he's giving folks a chance.

Thandi Newton ain't the problem. It's stupid for darker skinned actresses to come at her like she's the issue when she's never been the dominant Black actress in Hollywood. She ain't taking ALL the roles. She's just an easy target and now she's crying and apologizing on the internet like she did something she wasn't supposed to do. The bullshit we pull on each other is fucking ridiculous. :smh:
