So without having to wade through all the Twitter garbage - what did he say exactly?
“With a lot of blacks, there’s quite a bit of resentment along with their dissent, and possibly rightfully so,” Wayne says. “But we can’t all of a sudden get down on our knees and turn everything over to the leadership of the blacks. I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don’t believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgement to irresponsible people.” Playboy shoots back, asking him how he’s qualified to “judge which blacks are irresponsible and which of their leaders inexperienced?”
“It’s not my judgement,” Wayne says. “The academic community has developed certain test that determine whether the blacks are sufficiently equipped scholastically. But some blacks have tried to force the issue and enter college when they haven’t passed the tests and don’t have the requisite background.” He goes on to say that, as for Hollywood, he “gave blacks their proper position” in two films he directed. “I had a black slave in The Alamo, and I had a correct number of blacks in The Green Berets. If it’s supposed to be a black character, naturally I use a black actor… I think the Hollywood studios are carrying their tokenism a little too far.”
Wayne also expressed extremely homophobic views in the interview, specifically about the 1969 movie Midnight Cowboy. Playboy asks Wayne which movies he considers “perverted.” He responds, “Oh, Easy Rider, Midnight Cowboy — that kind of thing. Wouldn’t you say that the wonderful love of those two men in Midnight Cowboy, a story about two f**s, qualifies?”
