he deserved it. Well done spike

As one pastor said during WH Black History celebration,'Trump makes Black history.' Prison Reform Act signed; Lowest black unemployment in History; Opportunity Zones provided jobs in urban areas; 600k factory jobs vs job loss in 2016; 2x child credit - the Middle Class is back!!

How about we give credit to the actual author of the screenplay, which Spike Lee failed to do. His name is David Rabinowitz. Jordan Peele introduced David to Spike Lee, we took on the project.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Maga bigots didn’t like it . Congratulations spike 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🍾

Congrats 🎉 Mr. Lee, it was long overdue!

Congratulations Mr. Lee, this was long pass due. So happy you finally won one.

I’m glad he finally won, but I thought his acceptance speech was incomprehensible.

SpikeLee acted like a damn fool. Have a little class.

What a sore loser, not happy when not winning best picture. Good.

He is a nonsense person who thinks he is too smart and talented you want talent y remember Micheal Jackson

🖕🏾

Spike Lee should have won BestPicture for Malcolm X.

I think the ref made a bad call.

classless spikelee

And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death. --Exodus 21:16 People were kidnapped in Africa, transported to the USA, and then sold into slavery. Scriptures were twisted to justify this practice even by pastors.

Well..

I ain't seen this one yet, but honestly he should've won something awhile ago. At least as far back as 'He Got Game'.

This was a great achievement for SpikeLee but apparently it wasn't enough. He was upset that he didn't win BestPicture. He had said that whenever there's a movie with someone driving, he loses. Later he stormed out of the theater.

Good work!

Congratulations, Mr. Spike Lee for your Oscar for adaptation from a screenplay for BlacKkKsman. Let us ADOS celebrate this moment together and look forward to many more to come. Glory!

I wonder if he wrote the screenplay called “Jussie- the Attack?”

Meaningless symbolism. Hey let’s give all these black peoples awards. See we’re not white Supremacist. That con game only works with mentally defeated black people. Oscars2019Live_

Congratulations!

SM_SWFC bloods boiling

That film was really good.

Barney!

And fade to black.......who cares

am wondering why Google's search engine is giving far too much prominence to the negative reviews and controversies surrounding Green Book even though the vast majority of people who have seen the movie love it and a majority of critics reviewed it favorably.

Nice job Spike 👍
