galaxy, don’t choose to be a racist,” began the message from Disney accounts. “We are proud to welcome Moses Ingram to thefamily and excited for Reva’s story to unfold. If anyone intends to make her feel in any way unwelcome, we have only one thing to say: we resist.”
Ingram plays Reva Sevander, aka the Third Sister, who is hunting Obi-Wan Kenobi for Darth Vader in the new Disney+ series,on her Instagram stories several of the absolutely horrendous online messages aimed at her, some of which included the N-word. “There’s nothing anybody can do about this,” Ingram said in a video after sharing the spewed venom she’s endured. “There’s nothing anybody can do to stop this hate. I question my purpose in even being here in front of you saying that this is happening. I don’t really know.”
She continued, “The thing that bothers me is this feeling inside of myself, that no one has told me, but this feeling that I have to shut up and take it, that I have to grin and bear it. And I’m not built like that. So, I wanted to come on and say thank you to the people who show up for me in the comments and the places that I’m not going to put myself. And to the rest of y’all, y’all weird.”
i can't relate to the character nor the bad acting
You cannot say it’s racism when her color is not brought up in peoples complaints. Her acting is terrible, the writing is so bad, she’s a Mary Sue, a social justice warrior. The series made by liberals for their satanic polices agendas. They’ve reversed men and woman roles. God
LOL some of these 'racist' comments are by other POC ,she choose to play the race card and dis previous POC on star wars 'To me, it’s long overdue. If you’ve got talking droids and aliens, BUT NO PEOPLE OF COLOR, it doesn’t make any sense. It’s 2022, you know.' now the blowback
As a 47 year old Star Wars fan and a white dude, this is pretty embarrassing. I think she’s a great actress I think her character is pretty cool especially in comparison to let’s say, Rey lol..
And this is why Finn never became a Jedi.
I'm no expert in acting; I think she's doing fine as in for acting. But my only annoyance is why tf is she always so damn mad and is after kenobi? I need some backstory bc it's annoying how she's after Kenobi who's been in the desert this whole time minding his own business.
She's a fantastic actress, but the character is terrible. Outside of Favreau nailing Mando, Disney has no idea what they're doing with Star Wars.
I think she did a good job...
Has anyone actually seen the racist comments? Sorry but I can't find any, maybe not looking in the right place but has anyone got a screen shot?
Evidence?
We need the bad guys so we can use them as Jawa fodder
most people i’ve seen calling her bad don’t care about her race. they’re talking about how bad her acting is compared to literally anyone else
I absolutly agree that racism has no place in Star Wars. What im thinking is the most fans dont hate Moses Ingram but they just dont like the Character shes playing (Reva). But in my opinion and from what ive heard, the character Reva is written this way. Only wanted to say this
Is disliking the quality of writing, the lack of integrity, continuity and lack of respect for the original Star Wars racist? I think not. As an executive producer I expect far more from you Ewan than this trash and lame gaslighting StarWarsIsDead
What did they say? I wanna see, I have no idea whats going on
Don’t use the race card to defend a terrible character.
I found her on Instagram so I can share supportive words for her. I have no time for b.s. coming from haters. This woman is fantastic and she deserves to be told so.
I don’t know why people are upset we are two episodes in and I see nothing wrong with her performance. The story is still unraveling. Give it a rest.
I've seen what they are talking about and it was some deeply racist shit. Whoever did that shit doesn't care about however the character is written and just wants to bitch after the characters race.
She mad dope … but Star Wars CANNOT write child characters!!!!!
evilgrrl When was the last time someone's dick fell off after a black actor was cast in Star Trek?
Isn't this the series that cast Samuel L. Jackson, the blackest black man in the world, in a major role as a Jedi (20 years ago!)? No one cares that she's black. Its trolls looking for the exact response you are giving them, and then some. Star Wars is fools!
To be clear. Saying you know she is a diversity hire is absolutely racist
I choose not to be racist. It's not working. Reeva is still LAME. We couldn't get a nasty alien dude like Darth Maul as the villain? ObiWanKenobi
I’m tired of every time a Black woman takes on a pop culture megahouse like “Star Trek” and “Star Wars” it’s ALWAYS she can’t act or her character is written bad…🙄🙄😒
Are we gonna talk about the fact that she’s making this up? Her only rebuttal is she call people ‘racist’ when they complain about her SHITTY acting. She has no receipts and she’s a liar. I have no respect for her or Disney.
Bad choice by star wars, but, under KK that's not new, horrible, racist, radicalized company being endorsed by you and other crap 'news' sites that claim to hate, well, hate.
MI’s performing great in this role. Racists gonna racist.
Wait what did I miss I thought she did a good job? Are there really people attacking her becof her color or what?
OH screw off, I couldn't care less what race she is (sorry did I get the right pronoun) as long as the character is well written and acted.
Racist like shrinking a main character on a poster? Or racist like ignoring human rights violations because of Chinas market. If a character is crap they can be crap without those criticizing it being a racist. Just shut up and make good stuff.
I guess I’m doing it right because I thought she was badass in this role. Had to go to the internet to see I was wrong 😂 y’all need to ignore incel Star Wars rif raf
The shit part of social media people hide behind a screen name and just say this crap they wouldn’t say to someone’s face. Whether it’s and athlete or an actor. It just shows how cowardly these people are. Also in a world of Wookiee’s and jaba the huts this is what bothers u?
70 million US citizens voted for Donald Trump in 2019. We can quantify that nearly 1/4 of the United States is apologetically racist among their other faults as alleged human-beings. So sadly, this is not unexpected.
Y’all better leave this young lady the fuck alone.
Reva is a terrible character. Or maybe she's a really bad actress
There appears to be a problem with people of color in “ A long time ago in a galaxy, far, far away.”
I am so f*cking tired of this. I put no one on a pedestal so I think it's perfectly acceptable to tear apart a character that's poorly acted or poorly written but this is completely beyond the pale and WRONG because MosesIngram as Reva is awesome. Just the USUAL racist b.s.
Shitty acting comes in all colors or races.
Can we all just talk about how bad this character is without being labeled racist?
Does this apply to China?🤔🤦🏻♂️
No one said a anything to her lol
Racist Guns Christians in your business Illegals becoming legal Drugs Is part of America
They’ll believe a walking carpet that roars more than a black woman in space.
I don’t like her acting in the role but these attacks against her race need to stop. Shameful
I think she’s awesome and she’s right — those people are definitely weird.
Better moderate these comments too 😐
racism is the only real thing about America. everything else is fake.
