What black women is she standing up for? Last i checked, she was defending Roseanne?s racist ass who wouldn?t spit on her if she were on fire, nor send money to her when she?s clearly gonna need it. Please.

Not them doubling down on black content after the whole Monique incident
it's very curious
q

Shonda Rhimes, Lena Waithe and Ava duvernay already had nice long deals before Mo?nique even opened her loud and wrong mouth
that's 3 people. Would you be williny to compare that to the staggering number of black artists who have been offered deals just this year?
just 3!  either they?re racist or they aren?t. Mo?nique made it a gender/race issue where there wasn?t one, period. 

And she?ll remain pissed/jobless, unfortunately.
it's not black and white like that. The whole issue was that she was being undervalued, which she related to her being black and a woman. It's not about just blanketing "RACIST" over the Netflix company at all.

thats how some have interpreted it, but do you think she did a good job of making that clear on her self serving promo tour?  i personally don?t think so at all. All she did was compare herself to folks like whoopi, whilst simultaneously diminishing their contributions. Most decorated! She don?t eem DEW comedy lmao!

Girl. And her major awards didn?t have shit to do with comedy

Get 13 million or more for a netflix comedy special

3/4 of these bitches ain?t even funny but that?s not the point here

Only 2 are profitable so

Not understanding why they should shell out millions to bitches black ppl don?t even really care about like that

By addressing that low ball offer, she made Wanda Sykes feel comfortable to address the even lower wage amount she was offered.

Again, I don't understand the anger and the willingness to book Monique. Her delivery was a mess, but she wasn't all the way wrong.

You had ur lil opinion about all this before Roseanne

Monique has been the defense queen of others
Lets not forget how she stood up for janet when her mess started

Or even tiger woods

When wanda broke her story about being offered less she defended her

Blacks have always been offered deals but imo the racism doesnt lie in the offer it lies in the intergity of the content and the equality of worth given to it other wise lisa raye and unknown hip hop girls can simply secure a deal if they really want it

Ya girl viola davis admitted she gets a tenth of what shes worth and u love her mild approach but what did she do to help change what call of action did she inspire

U can hate monique for her approach but when she shined a light on it and called for a boycott

It definetly sent a message

And everyone sees the quick change they are making

Viola didnt cause that because she never threatened to use her celebrity to stop their cash flow

And the question  u forgot to ask about these black actors is is their netflix deals comparable to others with the same credentials

Its honestly time to stop accepting less simply because we are desperate and dont get many opportunities if u keep caving u will.never get ur worth

Basically what ur saying is that black female commedians arent bankable
If their shows are good and they have a following its no reason why at least one of these women cant get a multi million netflix deal

Real talk ive never even heard of amy shumer until this netflix debacle so shes not a household name

Tina fey
Ellen
Roaie o donnell

Yeah but i refuse to accept no female commedian isnt multi million dollar worthy

But there in lies the bias

I see fat unheard of unfunny white guys all the time with a special

I think Monique is in her right to speak out about Roseanne. She's really just saying that her experience with Roseanne was different that what we're seeing in her right now. And ya'll know Monique pushes for people to speak out for her and her industry issues so it's natural for her to do the same with Roseanne lol.

Outside of director deals, what's crazy is black actresses still aren't getting paid their worth, especially compared to not all but a lot of white counterparts.

But think about the fact that they are just not giving equal pay to women in men of the same level role and arguably caliper as an actor/actress. So either it's gonna be awhile til we get our just do, or they are making real progressive changes in the industry.


b7

Equal pay is absolutely necessary and i hope all the greatest actresses get what they deserve, including some of my faves like Viola, Lupita, Octavia, Janelle Monae and the gang.  Mo?nique Is one of the few that has been said to be extremely difficult even on the set of ebony magazine shoots and so on, so i doubt EVERYONE is lying just to lie. Please. 

She?ll never get what she wants being that way. Period. The plight of black women that she speaks of is accurate, but that doesn?t mean that anyone should be handing her 10?s of millions of dollars. forget it lolz

Young

So yeah I stand with Monique
