Actress Jessica Chastain says shes sorry that her comments promoting non-violent protest caused trauma for some social media users. The Miss Sloan star apologized in a tearful video after engaging in a heated exchange with a Twitter user about how to combat social injustice in the wake of Charlottesville.
Im making a video because my heart is very heavy, she says in the emotional video posted on Thursday. Ive learned so much the past few days about the trauma many people are experiencing in our country. Ive had the opportunity to listen, more than to speak, and its really hard for me to express my feelings, my thoughts, in 140 characters.
I wanted you guys to know that I hear you, the actress says while holding back tears. I want you to know that Im committed to creating transformative social change, that Im committed to dismantling systems of depression. I share in the sense of what is happening in the country.
I hear you. You may never have met me, but I love you, she concluded.

Basically. She posted a classic MLK quote, and for that she offense, she must apologize to the “black communitay”. Things are really going off the rails out there.

Not sure if this is good news because a Hollywood actress has learned that she should just Shut Up And Sing, or if it’s bad news because the mob has gotten another scalp.
