John Leguizamo Buys Full Page New York Times Ad Asking Emmy Voters to Choose ‘Non-White Artists’
Breitbart ^ | 06.10.2024 | WARNER TODD HUSTON

Posted on 06/10/2024 10:38:13 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Actor John Leguizamo has taken out a full-page ad in the New York Times to urge industry insiders voting for Emmy Awards nominees to vote for “non-white artists” because there isn’t enough “inclusion” in the entertainment industry.

“America is better when it is inclusive,” the Spawn star wrote. “It is more profitable. It is more creative! Let’s not give up. I’m still woke! Are you?”

“Please let this be the year we finally embrace change,” Leguizamo’s ad began. “The year we truly find Equity, and see artists of color represented across not just one category, but ALL categories.”

I was gonna say, I’m surprised a has-been B lister like this guy could even afford a full page paper ad.

The Leftists at the New York Times would certainly give him a bargain price since he's willing to say publicly what they would hide in an "editorial".

I doubt that the NYT would print a full page ad asking to support “non-black” artists.

Baseball takes brains and patience, something devoid in a certain demographic. You can't beat people up when you get mad.

And the rest of America will yawn and really, really don’t give a rip about these micro brained mental virtue masturbators in their hollyweird cocoon.

Yep, give minorities something else that haven’t earned. That’s the ticket!

I love all this half white mofos ranting against white people. Does this idiot not realize he wouldn’t exist without white people? The so called hispanic race would not exist without white people. I think he needs to check his DNA.

Same in NCAA baseball as well.

If you watch the upcoming CWS you’ll notice there aren’t many black players.

He IS White!

"According to Leguizamo, his surname is of Basque origin and he has distant Basque roots...

Research by the genealogy show Finding Your Roots indicated that Leguizamo does not have Puerto Rican, Italian, and Lebanese ancestry, as he has sometimes stated."

Or John…and hear me out…they could hire more diverse casts and then present the ones who do the best with awards. I think you have it backwards. It comes from hiring the best people and motivating them.

You don’t just reward crap performance and expect the world not to see what you are doing?

It’s thinking like this that brought you all the lousy Disney remakes.
