“BlackAF” creator-star Kenya Barris speaks about becoming involved in current political movements: “I want to get involved, boots on the ground. I want to say something. I want to write about it.”

I have kids, so I have to be hopeful. I also am hopeful in the moment that I’m seeing. It feels to be a much more unified moment than I’ve seen in a long time. It reminds me of the civil rights movement, where people are just like, “Enough is enough,” from all different walks of life. That means a lot to me.I think there will be lasting change. I don’t know that this moment of unity and this moment will last, but I think there will be lasting change. I do want to believe.

I think all the above. I feel like literally all the above. I want to get involved, boots on the ground. I want to say something. I want to write about it. I want to talk to my friends who I know don’t look like me, but I believe their heart is in the right place. I want to talk to people who I think their heart isn’t in the right place. I want to sort of make this a moment of clarity and of healing.

On his show BlackAF Kenya says several times how much he hates white people. He also goes on a rant how white people are genetically inferior because we don’t produce as much melanin. He is overtly racist.

LMAO.......you funny

Lots of people want to see how they can make money.

I want to make some money.

Creator-star? Hilarious

Apologize Kanye2020

He would probably make it illegal to be an atheist 😔🔫 that goes against the first amendment

Boring.

Who?

why does NBC never speak positively about white ppl? are they anti-white?

Start by explaining the phrase, 'acting WHITE.'

So the AF means black as f__k and NBC is ok with this trash

What a racist.

BoycottChina

A ' protester '.....like many others involved in politics..

He and the Blackies team do a great job educating the viewer on many of the topics that have recently been on the news.

Never heard of him

“Now this is something I care about” said absolutely no one

Nobody gives af.

These people are all the same. I’m just as tired of woke white people as I am tired of woke black people. Like damn we really don’t care. Especially those of us who grew up in a fully integrated society full of black, brown, yellow people unlike these 40-50 year olds.

So... some black people are less black than other black people? You know those that are blackAF? What makes the difference? What makes a black person BlackAF? Marxism? Democratic party sychophant?

Would rather see different people run than the same retreads. Wish more people would run or get involved.
