Hollywood’s racial reckoning

1. This "editing" that is being done is called censorship and that is illegal. What really upsets me is that people put their heart and their souls into their life's work and now that's all going to be destroyed because it's not "politically correct"?! The pendulum has certainly swung the other way. Whereas white people were the dominate race, now black people are becoming the dominate race, but anyway you look at it it is still discrimination, anytime you single someone out for their race – that's racism! This country has become nothing more than a bunch of holier-than-thou hypocrites. Maybe the people back in the old days didn't know any better or didn't think they were doing anything wrong, but to destroy their work is just as wrong. If you actually read the Bible, remember what is says: LET HE WHO HATH NOT SINNED CAST THE FIRST STONE!

2. Give me money and change the faces on the dollar bills. We dont care about movies and trivial hollywood blasphemy! Give us reperations and change the actual racism from the top down. The fact that america "voted" for Biden shows me and others that you arent ready for a real racial reckoning! Another white male??! Thats what you give us after Trump?!? Many of us arent fooled! Nice try!

3. Whats the racial reckoning!? Taking away the one black actress we had in gone with the wind? Wth

4. Ok the officers should still be charged and held accountable

5. Want to say that your ancestors were not slaves? Do you know what real racism is? This is when they spoil the film by adding an absolutely unnecessary black actor to it. And so many people watch old movies

6. Lmao I wish race was the only problem in Hollywood I think they don’t mind where little kids come from

7. Guy’s really excited like he’s really doing real journalism. Common sense people

8. All of the sudden, hmmm see a pattern here. Racial ignorance do you really believe this crap.

9. Blah blah blah you shouldn’t be on tv telling the news

10. Wow…. this is news… not for The sane

11. As a black person I don't need you to cancel everything so my feelings don't get offended

12. Our so called president said in a speech today that we should not be talking about the way are history was messed up. We are consider evil. We are evil cause we are taking the white serpremisey away.

13. What was offensive in Golden Girls? Can someone please explain that one to me? I don't remember there being blackface. Did I miss something? I remember an episode where Blanche and Rose are wearing mud masks as Dorothy's son's fiance's relatives drop by (who are black) and the timing makes it look like they're wearing blackface when it's just mud masks. But, I hardly count that as offensive.

14. Just put the disclaimer in the beginning.

15. Frankly ABC News, I don't give a damn.

16. This is like book burning. Stop erasing history even if it's ugly.

17. I knew ABC couldn't get through this piece without the word "iconic" being uttered. It's like if tv presenter, use word "iconic." And use it for anything that is older than ten years.

18. I think in 20 years everything from 2000-2020 is going to be reviewed for crazy behavior and hypersensitive attacks.

19. Racist asses are on fire. Good.

20. Jawn Murray had a lot to offer here: don't go back and try to scrub everything, provide context instead, intent matters. Very good advice. Let's not falsify the past; let's learn from it and become a better society.

21. I think the poor drawing and the addition of magical effects in cartoon Mulan is also can be considered racial stereotype, just little better than discrimination.

22. Let's stop worry about altering the past and let's change the racism of the present!

23. Fred Sanford said honckey lmaooo let’s ban it from tv land! just kidding i love that show

24. BOOK BURNING A LA NAZI.

25. A black man that thinks a simple disclaimer should be displayed before blackface is shown is not a friend of his own people.

26. Honestly I don’t care Hollywood all off them are uneducated making money acting someone else life if they wasn’t for the public they will be just like everybody else

27. How about Games of Thrones?

28. Cancel culture never works out well

32. Mr. Murray keeping things in perspective and in positivity.👍🏼

33. To erase it.from history will only.cause a.repeat

34. I dont want racial context in a movie… or any other PC material. All I want is for a movie to be entertaining and be worth the money I paid to see it.

35. We need to remove all series and movies that do not have a mostly POC cast.

36. Ha ha ha

37. What about whiteface? Why is blackface racist but whiteface is acceptable??? Hypocrites

38. Go look up Shane Dawson if you didn't already know. Abc wont ever talk about it. #FAKENEWS

39. Really? So if all the offensive content is being taken down then they should ban that movie Habit for being offensive and disrespectful to church people and even Muslims.
