It’s both. I haven’t forgotten that not one toy company would bite on Static Shock when it was on the air and one of the higher rated shows at the time. And maybe that’s on parents who would buy all sorts of ninja animals in toy form for their kids but not a human of a different race.

Mncedisi Mhlongo ...how tf did he risk his career... lol... look at all those people... look at all the likes.... go social media who share this and bring popularity to this.... u think that there is more racism than non racism... u think there is more hate than love? That is a sad life bro.
I remember when John Boyega first got casted for Star Wars, he received sooo much racist abuse. He put on a brave face but this speech shows that all that abuse went straight to his heart and he truly felt the pain :(
an a when the right wingers started to complain about how TFA was forcing diversity and how white men are in a genocide, or some other bs like that. It was extremely depressing to see how many troglodyte Star Wars “fans” there were.
@Bryan and this attitude is exactly why this movement is long overdue. Thank you for perfectly proving the point. Couldn't have done it any better myself.
Heh , this speech is evidence the whole force concept as popularly believed is bogus. Indeed , in star wars terms we see him tapping into his dark side , triggering his anger .... but then he regains calm , finding reason and pleads for non violence and even reminded the crowd of their individual rights (very impressive. )

@Merqo Alishanda Just reread your comment. Not JUST talking about murder, but abuse also. Not a member of the LBGT community, but I support them, though your attack on my statement is not germane to that point. My point is that instances of police violence against Black women don't get the same publicity. That is my only point. Your attack & assumptions are indicative of your unwillingness to question "why" one would say that.
Bill Patrick Jones institutional racism is a myth. Just as anecdotal evidence of racism isn’t evidence at all. There’s racist people in the UK no doubt, but to claim the U.K. as a whole is racist is totally incorrect. There’s racism everywhere. For example Asia, in Japan they have shops which display “no foreigners” signs. And Africa with Mugabe and his encouragement of violence against whites. Your comment makes to sound slightly deluded to the reality of things tbh.
@Bill Patrick Jones The UK the most racist country in the world? haha, your belief that there is more than one race is only damaging to yourself!! The monster is in your head. Who risk their lives? what walking through Hyde Park, yea its pretty dangerous crossing the road to get to Bayswater you always have to look twice for the cyclists!!!
@@Jacob-fs7bp Racist? It's simple fact, if somebody gets more hyped about something because of the swearing it doesn't make them look good. What is racist about it?
@J R6 He said "We need to take care of them, they are our hearts, they are our hearts" it is easy to mishear but it's clear if you actually listen, it's clear that he is talking about respecting black women and mutually supporting one another. I don't really think your comments deserve a response but i just wanted to clarify that.
@S Rioghal Mo Dhream So you're implying that because he committed a crime over a decade ago, went to jail for it, moved states to start a new life, and then was brutally murdered, that he somehow deserved it! Or that that means the entire blm movement is in support of all the previous actions of any person who is brutalised by the police? Of course some of the people who are brutalised will have committed crimes or have somehow imperfect lives, that does not mean that extra-judicial murder is acceptable. Your logic is flawed and a transparent attempt to undermine a legitimate reaction to centuries of racism and abuse with pathetic excuses. You should spend time with yourself to consider why you're out here making excuses for police brutality.

He is so honest when he say that “That every person remembers a moment that someone reminded that you were black”. That is what happened to George Floyd, his life mattered!
@Toori Baba dont talk about him like that, regardless what he did. He did not deserve to have someone suffocate him to death, when he begged to breathe.
As a huge star wars fan I was disappointed in how his character was used, and thought he was awesome in Detroit. But as a human he is true. Willing to risk his career that could sky rocket with his profile at the moment for something much more important also potentially risk his health.
Yes risk it as racists will no longer choose to hire him. There's the issue he's screaming about right there. Say how you feel about obvious injustice and be punished over it

You mention "Because what interviewers aren't going to bring it up??" It's fine. Let them. They should. Many Black people have reached their tipping point and with all the heart in the world it took him to say what he did in front of all of those people, some movie directors and producers would still perceive his feelings as affecting their bottom line..$$$. Wasnt that what George Floyd was murdered over $? The irony. Black people are more than economic gain, risk or liability. We have been treated as such since we arrived on this continent centuries ago. Hopefully, you too, will soon acknowledge this
@@nr7920 sorry what do you mean you hope I too will acknowledge this? I don't consider anyone regardless of who or what they are as anything other than a person. I certainly don't see anyone as a commodity, risk or liability, unless proven to be a risk or liability and would never look at someone as a financial gain. And I certainly wouldn't judge an entire race on 1 possible experience I may of had.
Censoring the profanity is a bit...backwards, counterproductive, and takes you out of the moment. Is there an uncensored version anywhere? EDIT - while my comment stands, some local folks have kindly explained to me a bit of the context of the channel.

Its good to see not all celebs are the same and that there are some willing to give up their career for the greater good. John Boyega i know how hard this is for you and how much you are putting at stake, youre a hero!
As an actor, he is a complete zero, he does not care about the life of blacks for the sake of popularity, he only cares about money. His tears are fake!!!!
The speaker needs Anger management counselling. Sad to watch seems the speaker has been through a lot. No father present it sounds. BLM is sponsored by Soros by the way... He helped confiscate Jewish Property and said it was the best time of his life. What about all the black boys killed by knife crime in London. Agree with his last sentence create good families, but he can't do that with his anger. Let's hope he can work through it. He can be a good member of society and join another group with genuine interest in his well being.

"raw" fake crying without tears... I'm all for such protests, I've participated in one in my city against racism last week. But I'm against those "privileged" stooges trying to capitalize on it while pushing people to such emotional height, that they become violent and get arrested and end up paying a dear price along a marker on their lives. While this guy has all the means and the privileges (yes, he is a privileged one) to then after fancy from his domain and be proud of himself for the fact of manipulating a mob (I'm talking generally, in regards to that last"feel", I don't know what happened after in this specific case - still must have been pacific). It's "acting" like a Twitch toth... Or like someone who thinks that only black people get beaten by some police officer. I'm talking about my own social environment dynamics, not from someone who lives in USA, which is why the whole buzz about SJW attitudes imported from USA is sooo out of touch and irrelevant in my province, as we don't share the same history nor socioeconomic dynamics, not at all: the whole SJW RACIST and sexist twisted discourse is irreceivable for most of us here.. Let's not get confused, the case at stake is police violence, and its perpetrators must go to jail: equal rights for everyone when facing the law, no more segregation (they also beat up white people but it's not interesting for the SJW narrative). Also, in my country there are regulations allowing someone to sue a company that bases its choices over gender or race (employment for instance), as well as sexual harassment or psychological harassment, since a while (since at least 30-40 years). This should be the foundation of our societies, and the rest would naturally follow.
Correct in every way. Leave the dicent and rebellion for those who can't live peacefully in there own heads and stoke the hatred in there hearts. We are a human family all beautiful and all equal. The men of hate will not win nor devide us despite what the worlds media want to portray.

Imagine disliking this... smh. What a wicked speech. I won't pretend to understand what it's like, but I will stand with every black person until the day I die.
@Jooton This isn't about that. Also, crime is not a racially exclusive activity. A white person can do it, a black person can do it, a Hispanic can do it, an Asian can do it, etc. This fight for justice is about good, black people being treated like dogs. This fight is about more than even what's going on right now. Sure, I don't condone the obscene violence, but if nobody is going to listen, somebody is going to have to make them.
@Jooton And one more thing: there is a huge difference between committing a crime and turning someone in versus being wrongfully KILLED just because of the color of your skin. So forgive me, but I fail to see the validity of your argument.
@Jooton First off, how am I CONDONING racism? And second, maybe it wasn't motivated by race, that still doesn't give the right to an officer to take a man's life who isn't posing a threat. Again this isn't about black on black crimes or black on white. This is about the big picture, there's still systemic racism in America and all over the world. And if you could actually read, I did, in fact, say that I don't condone the violence. I'm all for peaceful protests which is what usually happens until the police show up and start the violence. I don't condone the looting, destruction of property, or any brawls in the streets. However, I'm fully in support of the protests and marches. These events are not just because of George Floyd. They're because of the countless inhumane acts of the past as well.

samia elmi I’ve got to point this out to reaffirm your point. When South Africa won the rugby World Cup last year there was such a big hullabaloo about the captain being black and lots of the players being black and how it was a triumph for black people and how empowering it was for black people. Then after the game the players paraded on the pitch with there families and there you saw half the black players including the black captain hero parading their trophy blonde wives around.... I bet the black female population of South Africa felt very empowered by that sight !!!!!!

@free speech is no more fascism is alive and well 2 "Black power" isn't a racist slogan. It doesn't mean "black people are better than other people". It means "black people have value and power even when society and history tells them they don't." You can't just put "white power" and "black power" next to one another and assume they're just color-inverted versions of one another. The two slogans have been used and are being used in completely different contexts, for completely different causes. They're not the same. One is a call to unite against oppression; the other is a call to oppress.

Not a member of the LBGT community, but I support them, though your attack on my statement is not germane to that point. My point is that instances of police violence against Black women don't get the same publicity. That is my only point. Your attack & assumptions are indicative of your unwillingness to question "why" one would say that.
REMEMBER “The only thing necessary for evil to prevail is
for good men to do nothing”.
Which is why people need to stand up to BLM and Antifa.
Nuggets No Glory you’ve hit the nail on the head there.
Bill Patrick Jones institutional racism is a myth. Just as anecdotal evidence of racism isn’t evidence at all. There’s racist people in the UK no doubt, but to claim the U.K. as a whole is racist is totally incorrect. There’s racism everywhere. For example Asia, in Japan they have shops which display “no foreigners” signs. And Africa with Mugabe and his encouragement of violence against whites. Your comment makes to sound slightly deluded to the reality of things tbh.

@J R6 He said "We need to take care of them, they are our hearts, they are our hearts" it is easy to mishear but it's clear if you actually listen, it's clear that he is talking about respecting black women and mutually supporting one another. I don't really think your comments deserve a response but i just wanted to clarify that.
@S Rioghal Mo Dhream So you're implying that because he committed a crime over a decade ago, went to jail for it, moved states to start a new life, and then was brutally murdered, that he somehow deserved it! Or that that means the entire blm movement is in support of all the previous actions of any person who is brutalised by the police? Of course some of the people who are brutalised will have committed crimes or have somehow imperfect lives, that does not mean that extra-judicial murder is acceptable. Your logic is flawed and a transparent attempt to undermine a legitimate reaction to centuries of racism and abuse with pathetic excuses. You should spend time with yourself to consider why you're out here making excuses for police brutality.
J R6 Go ahead do it, record yourself saying it and the result. I’m sure lots of us would want to see the outcome.

The raw emotion from him is inspiring.
"raw" fake crying without tears... I'm all for such protests, I've participated in one in my city against racism last week. But I'm against those "privileged" stooges trying to capitalize on it while pushing people to such emotional height, that they become violent and get arrested and end up paying a dear price along a marker on their lives. While this guy has all the means and the privileges (yes, he is a privileged one) to then after fancy from his domain and be proud of himself for the fact of manipulating a mob (I'm talking generally, in regards to that last"feel", I don't know what happened after in this specific case - still must have been pacific). It's "acting" like a Twitch toth... Or like someone who thinks that only black people get beaten by some police officer. I'm talking about my own social environment dynamics, not from someone who lives in USA, which is why the whole buzz about SJW attitudes imported from USA is sooo out of touch and irrelevant in my province, as we don't share the same history nor socioeconomic dynamics, not at all: the whole SJW RACIST and sexist twisted discourse is irreceivable for most of us here.. Let's not get confused, the case at stake is police violence, and its perpetrators must go to jail: equal rights for everyone when facing the law, no more segregation (they also beat up white people but it's not interesting for the SJW narrative). Also, in my country there are regulations allowing someone to sue a company that bases its choices over gender or race (employment for instance), as well as sexual harassment or psychological harassment, since a while (since at least 30-40 years). This should be the foundation of our societies, and the rest would naturally follow.

@@gamxrangxl Hating white people is not a right It is evil
@@lenny2330 who said anything about hating white people? Black Lives Matter is about black peoples wanted to be treated as equal as white people. Just like back when women had to March down the roads yelling for their right to vote.
Imagine disliking this... smh. What a wicked speech. I won't pretend to understand what it's like, but I will stand with every black person until the day I die.
@Jooton This isn't about that. Also, crime is not a racially exclusive activity. A white person can do it, a black person can do it, a Hispanic can do it, an Asian can do it, etc. This fight for justice is about good, black people being treated like dogs. This fight is about more than even what's going on right now. Sure, I don't condone the obscene violence, but if nobody is going to listen, somebody is going to have to make them.
@Jooton And one more thing: there is a huge difference between committing a crime and turning someone in versus being wrongfully KILLED just because of the color of your skin. So forgive me, but I fail to see the validity of your argument.
@Jooton First off, how am I CONDONING racism? And second, maybe it wasn't motivated by race, that still doesn't give the right to an officer to take a man's life who isn't posing a threat. Again this isn't about black on black crimes or black on white. This is about the big picture, there's still systemic racism in America and all over the world. And if you could actually read, I did, in fact, say that I don't condone the violence. I'm all for peaceful protests which is what usually happens until the police show up and start the violence. I don't condone the looting, destruction of property, or any brawls in the streets. However, I'm fully in support of the protests and marches. These events are not just because of George Floyd. They're because of the countless inhumane acts of the past as well.
If this were a movie, John would win an Oscar.
Agreed!

Now that these 4 men have been convicted and sentenced are these protests going to move into the cities and streets where black men kill black men daily? Where's the tears and anguish for those men? Where's the protesting against those men who commit murder?
Damn....kid has a lot of anger and unresolved issues lurkin' in his heart. Just the amount of COMPLETELY uncontrolled rage and sadness that passes across his face, and in such quick succession.....made me think, "dang, if this was some random dude on the street? I'd probably think he was a little unhinged."
Hope he later got to a part in his "speech" where he actually offered a selection of possible answers/solutions to the problems he so very poorly elucidated. Cuz otherwise this would largely be the equivalent of a teenager throwing a temper tantrum.

samia elmi I’ve got to point this out to reaffirm your point. When South Africa won the rugby World Cup last year there was such a big hullabaloo about the captain being black and lots of the players being black and how it was a triumph for black people and how empowering it was for black people. Then after the game the players paraded on the pitch with there families and there you saw half the black players including the black captain hero parading their trophy blonde wives around.... I bet the black female population of South Africa felt very empowered by that sight !!!!!!
How many protests have there been for the three black honest policeman that have been killed by looters , one of which was protecting a porn shop , and by his own black brothers , very sad , 🙏x

A black man who not only addresses the masses in persuit for justice but also looks into his own ranks to address faulty black men to please take responsibility for the children and mothers and women you leave economically vulnerable and weak in this society, is a man who we must respect.

Unfortunately, many of Japanese are just thinking " wow big demo is happening in America. But it's a America's probrem. I'm not concerned with this situation." I was so, too, but now is different. I knew that not only black ordinary citizens but also a big star who is known for everyone even japanese has terrible feeling for treatment of black people. I knew that this situation is concerned all people who lives in the world. I have very little black business knowledge yet, but l 'll have been studying black lives matter and tell the situation for my Japanese friends. I want black people to know that there are Japanese people who ALWAYS support you. Black lives is ALWAYS important.
Sorry for the very very long and poor sentences.
