the unfortunate thing about this thread is that majority of JW don't care about such details.

were, indeed, given a voice for years. And then youtube banned them. All right-wing, no seemingly left-wing channels.
that is why I asked for examples
Maybe youtube banned these right-wing channels because they became so popular?
Being popular brings you under more scrutiny

Racism certainly exists, but it's kinda on life support.
Which one is on life support, Racism or Systemic Racism?

At least you have a sense of humor

Talking about racism is a huge business. You can even be an avowed Marxist and be a co founder of BLM and buy million dollar homes. The hypocrisy of it all!!!
Totally agree that often those behind the movement are in it for the money. The only problem with this thread is when you mentioned that others are also profiteering from the rage, then, it becomes a controversy.

Woke Oscars cringe
by LoveUniHateExams inactors' acceptance speeches have often been a little dodgy - viewers don't care what political or social views actors may have, we typically appreciate actors acting well.. this year's oscars awards ceremony seems to be going above and beyond, however.. here's frances mcdormand's acceptance speech, in which she dedicates her victory to 'our wolf' and then howls like a bitch, lol.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-_be0awgwk.

There are some good shows out there with all manner of people in them and no “racist” overtones or wokeness. It’s time to shut up about race and make a good product, which is what movies are. Yet, it seems that some persons who follow certain ideologies just can’t stop drawing attention to race.
True. Sometimes the media will also lash out to some stupid aspect of a film and make it all racial even when that wasn't the main subject of the film. Similar to when you have a 5 second nude scene and people lose their minds about Christian values and corrupting the youths.

Movies are tough because the concept may be great, or maybe there’s a great story in a book, but it may not translate to film, or the timing could be wrong and it’s not well received, ect.
Agree, timing matters

I don’t consider Black Panther a woke film because that character isn’t new, but it wasn’t as good as it could’ve been. I feel it was hyped as “Black” when they should have just made a super hero movie and made it the best movie possible.
My response about Black Panther was in response to someone who said
"Woke" films don't draw big audiences

Racism does not benefit anyone, much less the stigmatized persons. Let's get that clear.
you forgot the systemic part

Why are blacks constantly mentioned on this thread? The reason this subject is so much discussed has a lot to do with Black Lives Matter. Oops there I said it again! BLACK. It’s ok to use the word. Much respect too and kudos to major news outlets for capitalizing Black.
Very juvenile, LOL
