Cannot remember ever hearing of a white actor refusing to kiss a black actor and not be accused of racism.

Well, I can’t blame the guy for doing what’s best for business, but that sounds racist as shit. Then again I guess that’s more a reflection of his “core” than him.

Imagine if any actor said he or she wouldn't kiss a black actor.  They would be thrown into a wood chipper on live TV.

It sounds like he has decided to follow the teachings of those who believe in the separation of the races.  Lucky for him he is not white and is therefor free to hold such positions without fear of persecution.

Black women in general hate the living fuck out of black men having anything romantic with white women especially, but non-black women in general.

It's a big deal.

If you see an attractive black man with a white or asian woman, you can guarantee there's black women around that guy who are 9 kinds of pissed off about it. They see it as diminishing their options.

A fair number of black men have a preference for non-black women for a number of reasons.

I totally agree with your sentiment.  But the sheer action of him doing it is racist as fuck.  You need only to reverse the roles insert names like Brad Pitt and say Halle Berry, see what kind of outcry there is.  

I like Denzel.  But what he is doing is still racist as fuck at its core.  I don't think he is racist himself at his core, but who the hell knows now?


ETA:  But if the rest of the world can get over it and allow it both ways, so can I.  Until then, sorry.

He was great in Shawshank. He’s one of my favorite actors.

Female porn stars have gotten blowback for refusing to have sex with black guys… I guess the whole “women should choose who they want to have sex with” goes out the window on that one.

when everyone exudes a behavior that it's meaning is dependent on a specific class exuding that behavior on another class

then it has no fucking meaning

so just ignore the use of it

The actor reportedly noticed multiple black women booing the kissing scene at the screening and arranged to have the scene cut from the film.

Imagine the outrage if it were white men and women who did the booing?

To be fair, throughout most of the time of his career it would have been very controversial among white viewers as well.

There would have been no win in it for him, so why do it?
