He's basically upset Black British actors are upstaging African American ones.
African Americans love to believe the black struggle is there's and ONLY there's
Go to Europe where in certain places footballers are STILL having to go through people throwing banana's at them at football matches and chanting monkey noises, go the BRAZIL, fuck go to South Africa where blacks are still higher in population but STILL being oppressed by white South Africans.
I'd expect a dummy white actor to say this, not Samuel.
Okay but african americans arent traveling to Europe to pick up roles they are coming here because this is the land of opportunity and its that way due to the free labor that established it with black americans at the helm
My belief is if your talent is really that great and you have raw grit to make it you dont have to travel overseas and perch in another country to book
cause if a black american actor and or singer did that its considered as if they cant make it here so they have to run and rely on overseas success well same principle applies to the brittans
furthermore
Racism and sexism and oppression exists everywhere
but trading out one white man for another and trying to move in on black americans while your traveling to benefit on what they have built because a nother white man says you can doesnt sit well with me or anyone who understands the sentiment
like i said they are being used to block black americans from jobs and accolades
