UnNews:Samuel Jackson rips Oscars on diversity
2 March 2011
LOS ANGELES, California—Another harsh criticism of the Academy Awards…this time from Samuel L. Jackson…who's pretty damn upset that there weren't more Melanin-excessive (African-American) actors involved in the show.
Jackson was in L.A. yesterday, where he asked a photographer, "Where were the black actors?" Then continued to exclaim, "Man, there wasn’t a single token-nigga on stage! That’s racism, mothafucka'!"
He continued, "I guess they didn't think we were able to read teleprompters…obviously President Obama can do it.”
Jackson added, "We work in town…they know who we are, they know we're available to be on that show to represent the Melanin-excessive people of color who are in the business in town…hopefully it wont happen again.
“Cause I’m tired of these mothafuckin’ shows with no mothafuckin’ bloods!” Jackson stressed.
