Idris Elba the superb actor from London just said something so true it resonates within my conscience like church bells!
He does not want to be referred to as this excellent BLACK actor!
I don't remember de Niro being called a great WHITE actor!
Idris is absolutely correct. We are perpetuating racism by focussing on the skin color 😘 instead of the artistic skills!
Food for thought!
@Helveticus I've always thought about this. If you see a headline "Man robs 7-11" he's probably white. If the headline is "Florida Man...." he's definitely white. If the robber is black, it will usually say so.
@Helveticus Yes. Avoid using racial language as an adjective to label someone. Ever.
