#OscarsSoWhite Strikes Back… And So Does Al Sharpton
Truth Revolt ^ | 1/14/2015 | Trey Sanchez

Posted on 01/14/2016 3:48:55 PM PST by Bon of Babble

Also stirring the pot is Al Sharpton, who just like last year, came out with a diatribe against the whiteness of the movie industry. Through his National Action Network, the reverend gives his condemnation of Hollywood and proves that his efforts with Sony didn't work:

"Hollywood is like the Rocky Mountains, the higher up you get the whiter it gets and this year's Academy Awards will be yet another Rocky Mountain Oscars."

Why doesn't Sharpton use all the millions he's saved by not paying taxes to open up his own movie studios?

Has Sharpton gone color blind?

All I ever see in movie ads nowadays are negroes.

Little Orphan Annie - black, for God's sake.
All the movies coming out star negroes. Seems to me that Star Wars movie had a negro playing a leading role...

Sharpton! Open your eyes, man! Obama boot-lickers have blackened everything we see from movies to product ads.

When I recently saw Creed, many of the preview trailers were for black movies. But the truth doesn’t matter.

Hey Al, go hire the best black actors there are and make your own move and just shut up.

What are you, in the 1800s? Why can’t you just say “black?”

What “black” movies were made last year? “Straight Out Of Compton?” Who under 30 even know those rap guys these days?

Why do they get an award just because they are black. Maybe other actors were actually better. Do they affirmative action in Hollywood too?
