We do too and when we do ,have mercy because we sell our brothers and sisters out to say look at me "I made*It*"😢😢😢!! Live in Alabama and experiencing*IT*!!!
The brotha is absolutely right. This is the same system that keep as black people oppressed. The system is designed for a percentage of people to become richer on the backs of people struggling to make it. These billionaires and multiple millionaires are using the talents to others to get even richer. The reason people haven't called out the system because some are hopeful in becoming one of the few.
That is so right!!!! Greed don't care rather white or brown 🟤 melanated,etc .. !!!! We needed a mind examination!!!! What will a man give or change for their souls 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽???
Darn near every time I hear Dr. Black with Prof. Hunter, he says something to make me wince, then shrug and nod . Like the elders say, “It’s tight, but it’s right!”
Thank you Karen for being so real and completely unapologetic in your truth, stand in it my siStar, and Dr. Black I love you King. Ron Perlman said MF'a with the "A" and not the "R" at the end, I'ma big fan now, I love it!!! CMK
That's just the money they made on their main job. They are also board members of other major companies and make a grip based on the profits of those companies.
Dr. Black. Show know how to put folk where they need to be expeditiously. And without hesitation or reservation, but a suggestion to a nation, that benefited from the plantation. Dr Black, I got my tamborine tonight. Gon and take us to church...please.
Our community does have a major problem identifying with our historical adversaries but this i suspect is different. This is where entertainment overlaps. We are even more obsessed with being entertained. Think NFL, think Black exploitation media. We actively look past what is being done to us in our eagerness to be entertained (distracted). Our cultural opioid.
It's crazy that people are not seeing the patterns. This is the same argument for student loans, this is the same argument for minimum wage. It's all the same. Businesses don't want to pay enough to do the job. then there's these people ....these off people that say, "Everyone should learn a skill that pays a lot. Stop being lazy etc." These are the same responses, for teachers etc. Now it's hitting actors and writers. When are we gonna rise up against these opinions? Everyone that comes online spreading these opinions should be confronted about these destructive opinions. It's destroying our world by justifying these poisonous toxic businesses to do what they are doing. So frustrating.
@Karen, I'm so glad I listened to this one, and I'm SO sorry you were screwed when you were still young and naive in the business. I bet it never happened again! And of course, the Diasporic-Facing Empire you're building now - giving everyone a chance like Toni Morrison did when she got the opportunity, plus a lot more - shows that they can't take a determined Sister out. Ase'! -- @Ms_Butler
It’s the social disassociation of when whiteness Starts to buckle under capitalism that they are reminded truly on the class level on the hierarchy that white peoples in whiteness are also being exploited against. So the fact they gaslight AA on a daily basis is harmful and insidious. Instead of getting universal changes that would help uplift everyone as a whole. I hope this just puts the conversation and spotlight back in their hands. Meanwhile black people should be talking about the working class especially on trying to get unions or join unions for employees protections especially
*@Karen, there are many BLACK talents that are metaphorically your FIRST BOOK! But here's the real gag, although Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson made a 7-figure donation to the SAG-AFTRA relief fund, which is supposed to HELP striking actors; to expect other blue chip actors to match his generosity IS NOT SUSTAINABLE nor a REALITY! Gabriel Union tried to tell you in so many words, when one is the MILLIONAIRE of the family they are looked upon to take care of the wholeeeeeeeeeeeee FAMILY.* 🎬 *Also, note how the BIG💲💰💲MONEY of an **#ACTOR** breaks down: percentages go to AGENTS, MANAGERS, LAWYERS, PUBLICISTS, and ACCOUNTANTS!*
One of the things that is kinda funny about that situation, is most of the people that are complaining about hollywood studios being woke, calling them evil....etc are ok with hollywood being really evil (crushing workers) because, you know, capitalism is cool....
When i worked as a boom op and grip, folks would be surprised at the amount of money the actors and crew are making. And mind you as a crew member, the money isn't as glamorous as folks think. Yes, the job might be fun, but when you look at the budgets and returns. Your chunk is a drop in the bucket. And in some cases, you wont receive residuals at all. The big names can command great salaries but for every big name, there are hundreds of working actors just trying to make some money to pay rent or a car note. Also, a lot don't qualify for health insurance either. Its a sad situation and I'm glad folks are waking up but i hope they see the big picture overall.
Yep -and many times you as a tech or extra have to travel to a location shoot around LA or in Cali on your own $$. "Different" work but definitely not the way I first envisioned...
@keyfield8967 I got lucky. I filmed mostly in my home state. The times I did work in Cali, I stayed with my dad's best friend. But yes, the crew has to come out of pocket for travel and accommodations. The system needs to be better all around and I hope they get what they need.
Tha by design keeps lower actor’s poor w/ pennies over and over so ever few years give more pennies again again so from .20 cents to .65 cents so the lower will never move fwd 😮….but the higher go from 100 million to 270 million dollars.
Its the same as its always been all the time...money and power rulers of the world...and pay peanuts to their minion's......not ws its Those who have and they have it all....and those who do not..
A very profound and important point by Dr. Black "Everybody who fights the master until they become the master."
Thank you 🙏🏽
It’s the same parasitic system and force that has used Black people’s energy, talents and bodies to feed itself. Dr. Black is spot on! 🔑
Professor Hunter, thanks for sharing this conversation with Dr.Daniel Black, making it clear, kudos.
We do too and when we do ,have mercy because we sell our brothers and sisters out to say look at me "I made*It*"😢😢😢!! Live in Alabama and experiencing*IT*!!!

Correct it is operating exactly as it was designed, genius but really evil. People need to stop participating in their own oppression.
That is so right!!!! Greed don't care rather white or brown 🟤 melanated,etc .. !!!! We needed a mind examination!!!! What will a man give or change for their souls 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽???
"Don't want to dismantle the system, just their part."
That Part
"..nobody expected that the wiles of white supremacy would ALSO oppress white people..." -Dr. Black. C'mon Doc!!!!!!!!💯
*ALL OF THAT!!!!* ☝🏽
It ain’t no fun when the rabbit got the gun
Yup Elmer Fudd was right 😂
Hhhhhh
Hey now
🎯🎯🎯💲💲💲
Greed is destroying our society!!!
I love this man. All hail Dr. Black
Darn near every time I hear Dr. Black with Prof. Hunter, he says something to make me wince, then shrug and nod . Like the elders say, “It’s tight, but it’s right!”
Let's support these actors and writers any way we can.
Karen is a self reflective person. Love that about the Earth! ❤💪🏾
Dr. Black, you said the thing that EVERYONE should be saying. PREACH, PREACHER 🙌🏽
Those people don't go to the grocery store!!! The " help" goes to the grocery store.
All of this! Yes! Working actors are the working poor of Hollywood along with the crew. They should make a living wage too!
I could not hit the thumb up button enough. OMG!!!!
Thank you Karen for being so real and completely unapologetic in your truth, stand in it my siStar, and Dr. Black I love you King. Ron Perlman said MF'a with the "A" and not the "R" at the end, I'ma big fan now, I love it!!! CMK

Say it!
They finally looked around and said "oh wait a minute, we are on the plantation". Stay woke! ❤
Heyyy my favorite people good day to you both. MR. Black is so correct now it trickery down no fun when the Rabbit gone gun.
Crucial convo
Thank you Dr. Black for confirming what I told my husband about WS. This was a great discussion! Hit it on the nose!
"trying to replace them with AI" ... it's the same thing in software engineering ... and many engineers don't even realize it.
Dr. Black. Show know how to put folk where they need to be expeditiously.
And without hesitation or reservation, but a suggestion to a nation, that benefited from the plantation.

I live here in LA -there might be some "new" faces out on Figueroa or Western Aves after dark - if this strike continues...

Like they want their part of it.
Where can we watch the full interview? I checked Sirius and Knubia and don't see it on demand.
💯👍🏾 on point.

Reminds me of the Native American land and banks quote from the film Hell or High Water
At what point do we all stand up? It's sad this bullchit keeps going on.
