Additionally, the film director spoke on discriminating Black people who speak unfavorably about his films. Tyler stated, “You’ve got this ‘highbrow Negro’ who is all up in the air with his nose up looking at everything, and then you got people like where I come from and me who are grinders who really know what it’s like…”
Following, the ‘Divorce In The Black’ writer and director stated that people “whose mothers were caregivers for White kids and were maids and housekeepers…beauticians” deserve to have their families’ narratives told.
Perry stated, “Don’t discount these people and say that their story don’t matter. Who are you to say which Black story is important or should be told.” At the end of his speech, the film director got a little heated, stating “Get out of here with that b******.” Keke was shocked at Perry’s fearlessness!
Loungers, how do you all feel about this?
