Not everyone is ready to admit that and will hide behind their wall of it's them and not me or it's nothing to do with me. Once people can admit that there is a problem and take the steps to want to change it, then we will start to see the beginnings of change and work towards equality for all.
If you can't hear "black lives matter" without thinking you're being attacked, then you're a racist. Doesn't matter if you want to admit it or not - that's where that reaction comes from.
@@Serai3 They are not attacking you, for heaven's sake, they are simply asking to be recognized as a normal human being instead of being treated like dirt, for equality, for fairness, for justice. Anyone who thinks they are being attacked maybe needs to check their conscience.

Fallon gets more publicity than Graham, because the show Fallon hosts has been around for a very long time so people have been subscribing since UA-cam first began and when Jay Leno was the host.

And for me, people got offended because they were forced to look in a mirror at themselves/their politics/their world.
Actual events? No, it was based on a lie. Floyd could not breathe when alone in his car. He had overdosed and was already dying. The police had called an ambulance and were using normal procedures to restrain him. Would they have done anything harmful while being filmed by several people? Of course not. The Marxists have manipulated the facts to suit their agenda. BLM is a terrorist organisation.

Caught this on Graham, searched the vid on UA-cam. Goosebumps. Ashley is my new favorite superhero.
You better check out the 1960s amercan tv series THE BANNA SPLITS one of the characters called BINGO looks a lot like BANJO so you could say BINGO BANJO
Looking forward to the Sasha Johnson tribute dance 😂😂
The music is apparently “ bullet in the head” by Rage against the machine
@@DoYouHaveAnOpinion 😂😂
His interview with Jim Davidson was classic . A self entitled celeb who has no grasp on the questions he asked . I'm sorry but stick to dancing Ashley . Diplomacy and debate is way out of your league . You just came off like a fool
Stop being so sensitive MR armchair critic. Get a grip.
@@isaacjacobs3785 just stating a fact
He reminds me of Kryten
Oh wow!!!!! 😳
But ash spoke well.
“Look, I am coming soon, bringing my reward with me to repay all people according to their deeds. Rev 22:12
Your deeds determines where you spend your eternity. So where would you spend your eternity?
Surrender your life to Jesus Christ today before it is too late.

2020 has been such a terrible year. God help us all
O while I don’t blame you, please don’t do that.
Goodness. Stop being so dramatic. Back in the day (not so long ago) the world got through The Spanish Flu (killed millions) as did the 1st and 2and World Wars. As they say dig deep, grow a pair and man up. At least in 2020 we have the knowledge (which they didn't back then) to overcome and move on.
Let's see Ashley do a PC Blaicklock dance next
YES ASHLEY!❤️
It was the time and place Black lives matter
All life matters
And know they’ve literally just one a BAFTA for ‘must see moment’ for this beautiful, powerful, moving and inspiring dance👏🏾👏🏾 well deserved ❤️❤️❤️❤️
HAHAHA
@@barrychuckle5565 what’s so funny?
@@holliedavid4318 really? Hahahaha hahahaha! Absolutely stunningly hilarious tbh!
@@barrychuckle5565 whatever? I don’t get what’s so funny
@@holliedavid4318 did you not watch the 'performance' 😂😂😂
Chips chips chips and shoulders!
"It makes people uncomfortable" Yeah, that's kinda the point
And there's me thinking BGT was supposed to be light entertainment...
It was beautiful and powerful. Thanks for doing it!
So great to see your guests back in the studio!
good dance cant wait for the sasha one.........
🙂
Nice. 👍🏻
But what about... but what about.... -cry face-
Who is Ashley banjo?
Here's the link to the performance ua-cam.com/video/kzFNKFitHjw/v-deo.html
It's a powerful expression of truth and the search for healing and love.🤎❤️🧡💛🤍
It literally expressed a false narrative and you call it truth. You're a puppet.
Graham Norton has left the BBC BECAUSE he doesn't want you know how much he earns!!! #TrueFact
whats up with frank?
There are times when the good spirit in you disturbs the demon spirit in other people
Discrimination and hypocrisy are bad
But not as bad as diversity to be fair.
Stanley13 - No matter how I approach this comment, I can’t make sense of it in a way that doesn’t reflect negatively on your perspective.
@@RobVespa a bunch of low iq "pretend dancers".
Stanley13 - Huh?
But it’s OK if it’s aimed at white people, right? After all, only white people can be racist (apparently).
Already cancelled 4 tickets the summer show that I planned to take my grandchildren to see them dance, before I new their politics
It fukn boggles my heid how this performance got so much hate..i almost can't comprehend it tbh... im not black personally..in fact im so white... it bothers ma white parents.... diversity... gave us a performance that is generational... never to be seen again in anyones life..it was beautiful... be damned every hater... i dont get the hate.... but i gues its why its important.... !!!
If anyone in my class goes to the comments....heyyy
The complaints are justified
Watch Ashley Banjo's interview with GQ UK Magazine, he is a once in generation in terms of his knowledge and mannerisms especially speaking about the Black and Lives Matter movement 🔥 ✊🏾
I'll pass, thanks
that dance performance was one of the best things i've ever seen on TV so Thanks to Diversity.
@@sirbaconbutties7071 Wow racist much? if you actually did your homework instead of being an ignorant fool then you'd know Ashley and Jordan were raised with both their mother and father, there are more white kids in this country without dads than there are black kids
That performance literally gave me chills, it was awesome. I loved it
Who else is stuck in the never ending loop of The Graham Norton show 👀
I’ve been here since 2007

Wonderful response. Great attitude
Ashley banjo is one of the many black celebrity’s” causing divide in this country. The eternal millionaire victim. We all know if you call people something for long enough they might as well be that.
He and his brother are where they are now through graft,dedication and talent.so what if he made a better life,good luck to them all.Bless every single dancer who took part in that show stopping,history making,dance routine xxx
@@legallyblonde8171 so he uses his platform to divide the country, really good use of his talents.
@@dobbsy87 so it should divide the country.The racist from the non-racist, the black equality pro people vs those who want ro keep people down and not move forward.Besides the performance was so much more than about race,it was about pandemic,how we cam together as a nation and globally.Maybe if we came together like that in our everyday life,we wouldnt have the race struggles and injustices.Im a white woman by the way,before people start with their racial slurs
@@legallyblonde8171 a white woman, imagine my shock. give me one example of institutional racism? I can give you several against white people.
@@dobbsy87 Stephen Lawrence
FFS shut up about racism, you are just perpetuating it. Just stick to dancing.
I know right
AshleyHdrding ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Who the hell is Ashley Banjo?
Exactly.
It was beautiful
💩
He got what he wanted..... Attention
Three bankers together.
All them people got a silence "Plaster" on them I wonder why ?
