Celebrities have been trying to “take responsibility” for racism, but fans are seeing nothing more than an empty gesture.
Hollywood actors and other white celebrities including Sarah Paulson, Aaron Paul, Kristen Bell, Kesha, Justin Theroux, Debra Messing, Julianne Moore are uniting to “take responsibility” for racism.
In partnership with the NAACP, a video was released on Thursday featuring the celebrities denouncing police brutality and checking their privilege.

But social media suggests the PSA might have missed the mark amd some people have even criticized the actors for “acting”
RT reports: The video, produced in black and white, with sombre music playing in the background, features celebrities including Kristen Bell, Justin Theroux, Sarah Paulson, Debra Messing and Julianne Moore, among others.
One by one, the actors declare that they take responsibility “for every unchecked moment,” “for every unfair stereotype,” and for every time they ignored a racist comment because it was “easier” to say nothing.
While the anti-racism message was clearly well-meaning, the execution didn’t go down well on Twitter. In fact, the video was reminiscent of a cringeworthy attempt by celebrities in March to uplift the Covid-19-struck world with a much-ridiculed recording of John Lennon’s ‘Imagine’.
“Regret to inform you the celebs are at it again,” wrote an entertainment editor for the Daily Beast, who shared the video on Twitter.
Others wondered if the stars would actually put their money where their mouths were and donate to the Black Lives Matter movement.
“No matter how well-intentioned, they always fall back on performative nonsense. They have this insatiable need to come out “good” and righteous in every situation,” another person said.
Actors will be actors, but some could not take the overly dramatic tone in which they spoke their lines, with one commenting that the “bizarre actor’s cadence” they use actually “makes the whole thing 200x more transparently performative.”
Others questioned what good the video would do for the cause, particularly since it’s unlikely to encourage support from anyone who doesn’t already support the BLM protesters.
“Oh my gosh – racism is over, thank you, actors,” one person sarcastically said.

if it were not for the wisdom of celeberties, i just would not know what to do in my life.
Haha…they are the voice of reason for sure. They’re “tho therious”.
ha ha,i even knows,those obe,not single one,i dont watch,controlled bulshit
What a bunch of pathetic losers.
It’s about income I inequality Jails are full of poor people of every colour and the homeless are the same. Drugs are a higher problem than racism because they produce bad parents who then ruin their kids lives by not caring if they go to school or have goals or ambitions let alone dreams . Drugs dont care what colour your skin is .Americas had public education for decades and Millions of African americans have been motivated to succeed and have .People have choices too ,and some people are just anti social because of bad parenting a lot of the time Alwaus theres been poor people and there always will be and to pretend otherwise is just plain stupid .
actually in Los Angeles,there ism ore white homeless,then blacks,but this events are very carefully orchestrated,by???? can’t say it,even that,due to censorship
The pedovores do prefer white meat .
They’re all Jews.
Actually they might have found the only non-jews in hollywood with this group.
Well You heard about CRYPTO JUICE???
100%
No They arent .As Kaiser Willhelm said ww1 was started by the English masons and the Spanish jesuits The English are again controlled by the Vatican and catholics allowed access ,for the first time since QE1 ,I think , into the Chapel Royal .The Monarch England was can marry a catholic now also a first for centuries .England was a Roman colony and via Catholicism is once more
.Rome ,pagan Rome used the Jews to do their banking always because they have a natural talent for it and the two are partnered from thousands of years of historical associations that they keep secret .The Jews are like the blacks in that they have been oppressed for centuries too and si got a bad name because they struggle to be free and to gave a homeland A place to put down roots Its a double edged knife for them because Rome knows they create wealth so has to keep pushing them down but pretending its other people Do they constantly subvert them to stop them rising to the top They frame them and spin lies and infiltrate with fake jews , whatever it takes.
They’re all Jews !!!!!
I was afraid to say the sacred world,they totally control Blacks and use them,for new world order( look: UNNWO.ORG)

My Grand Pappy used to say: “If BS were music, they would be a Brass Band!”
