White celebrities participate in cringe "I take responsibility" video

[amiro1989]

Wouldn't it be just more active doing something for the cause? I honestly think the best way celebrities can help right now is to open their purses and drop the coins.

You’re sympathizing with a racist and agreed that some of the things she posted were funny. Goodbye. It’s been made clear I don’t belong here

Don't leave Exhale! You're one of the members I like the most!

I honestly think this is a great video... Speaking up is so important, of course along with donations and protesting... But hopefully this will help other white people be able to better empathize and understand the severity of these issues.

I never imagined I'd be watching Veronica Mars, our supreme aka Lana Banana Winters and Nigel reunited on a video. 

I wonder what Fiona and Miranda Priestly would say about this.

Not enough people in America grew up in a diverse, poor Southern town and it shows.

The message is spot on, the video is cringe af though. perhaps if it had been intercut with other races saying the unchecked moments they have experienced . . . .

This reminds me of a Seth Meyer's sketch

A PSA starring white celebrities, including Kristen Bell, Kesha, Aaron Paul, Stanley Tucci, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Debra Messing launched today. It's called #ITakeResponsibility, a partnership with the NAACP.

They read from a script, denouncing racism and declaring they won't turn a blind-eye to racial injustices. 

“I take responsibility for every unchecked moment, for every time it was easier to ignore than to call it out for what it was. Every not-so-funny joke. Every unfair stereotype. Every blatant injustice no matter how big or small. Every time I remained silent. Every time I explained away police brutality or turned a blind eye. I take responsibility. Black people are being slaughtered in the streets. Killed in their own homes. These are our brothers and sisters. Our friends. Our family. We are done watching them die. We are no longer bystanders; we will not be idle. Enough is enough.”

Though their hears are in the right place, it's a bit hard to watch. Why this public declaration? Why not take action, or donate? 

This feels like a sequel to the "Imagine" video.

Thoughts? 

 

 

I think celebrities who were proactive before all the recent events and were conscious about making a change need to be give credit. 

being active now its more of a last hope of redeeming themselves .. if they have not been active in making change before they shud not be now doing videos like that

K-Fed....where you at?

This feels contrived and self-serving. I get that they're trying to show support for BLM and other social justice movements, but I wish they wouldn't stoop to this level of cringe.

I would. I have cringed with her IG posts and pretty much the entirety of her Vegas residency in a painful manner. Ha ha ha!

Hollywood is such a joke. And there are still people who listen to these clowns. 

[RATCHET❤]
