I kinda felt some way, but then again not because she was the ONLY person who won that they mentioned went to a prestigious conservatory for college as if that solidifies her position or talent as a black woman.

Then again it is Juilliard & they birth the best of the best, but had Kevin Spacey (also a Juilliard alum) won would that had been announced?
I get exactly what you mean. I also wondered "do they usually announce that stuff?"  :plzstop:

But I see no harm in pointing out the fact that a black woman is actually educated. If anything it only spiced up the BOOK even more.

speech reminded me of that tumblr post with different interviews of Taraj, Viola and I think Octavia Spencer complaining and not being able to find good roles even after an Oscar and then a quote from Kirsten Stewart saying all she has to do is snap her fingers to get a role and that she can't deal with the stress of being offered all these roles.

!!!

and a lot of white actresses seem so clueless about it. like this shit...



viola saying their aren't any roles for older black women and then charlize comes in with "but you're so pretty"

gorl what the fck does that have to do with what she's saying?  :uhh:

yeah that just sounded so patronizing

sdkjddddddddd

I'm screaming they swooped in quickly and made it about all woman

I bet Charlize was itching to pull that South African card.

"But I'm South African!"

yes i got that too...

ghjghg...i can only imagine the identity issues she's had growing up......being raised in south africa but being white and not being able to lump yourself in with experiences that blacks go through...

QuoteI always thought Charlize was classy but after watching this i'm left quite disappointed. She's full of herself and uses too much profanity even when it's not needed.

QuoteMichael Fassbender is out of this world, he is one of the best actors ever, super dedicated. Charlize sounds so arrogant really, keep your mouth shut you would look better...

QuoteCharlize Theron was so fucking annoying throughout the entire panel discussion. I don't think I've ever seen a more egotistical, narcississtic twat in my life!


jhkjhjhghghg they're dragging her on youtube..

people cant stand her for some reason....even in the clips were she comes off kind of likeable

QuoteThat's incredible that Charlize only started learning English at 19! You'd never know it

QuoteYeah I'm sure she's lying about that. English is a mandatory language in most (if not all) mainstream South African schools from grades one to twelve. She grew up in Benoni, which has a population of about 200 000 people. I can guarantee you she learned English in school like most of us did, she just learned another accent when she moved to the US, not an entirely different language from scratch as she implies in this video. In fact, she attended the National School of the Arts in Johannesburg, I'm sure she spoke English there. Charlize Theron is just REALLY good at making people think she grew up in this derelict little shit hole of a village with only two telephones and a single bathroom per forty-eight people.

right.   

but it's the same BS they do with people like Obama. People kept praising how articulate and "well spoken" he is/was, but I've NEVER heard them say such things about white candidates :dead: the fact that they feel the night to highlight these things, comes off a bit backhanded at times.

it is backhanded imo
Unintentional but still backhanded
Like they've never seen a black man with so much poise before :dead:
They only know black men that speak Ebonics and slur their words
That's what they're used to

AIDS!

Internalised rascim
When people don't even realise what they're saying and what kind of impact it has
