Clooney also didn't mention that Hattie McDaniel wasn't allowed to eat at the same banquet where she got the award, and she was crying when she said she hoped she'd always be "a credit to my race" because she didn't want to say that but was ordered to say it by the MGM studio bosses. The trouble with Clooney's history lectures is that his audience knows more about history than he does. Not hard.
That's interesting about Hattie.
You know Clooney demonstrated his superiority complex beautifully ... when he said, he was glad he wasn't in the mainstream Oor something like that.
