and Smith said he disagrees with people who think that the situation has gotten progressively worse.actor compared working on race relations to working on a marriage. "I've done my 10,000 hours of marriage counseling, so Jada and I have worked really hard to develop a successful relationship," said Smith. "I always look at things in terms of relationships so when I think about race relations in this country now, there's a thing that happens before things are cleaned up.
"We are talking about race in this country more clearly and openly than we have almost ever in the history of this country," said Smith. "Racism is not getting worse, it's getting filmed."Smith agreed and continued with his analogy, saying he appreciates that America's problems with systemic racism are on the table. "I view that in the same way as Jada and I had to work on things in our marriage.
"I definitely have had the itching," said Smith. "I have a lot of views and ideas, and sometimes I hear people say things on television and I just want to run against them." But, he added, "I think it's not where my greatest gifts are."
I was very upset one day by something on the news, a woman being abused My grandmother told me NOTHING YOU SEE HAPPENING IS NEW NOTHING ITS BEEN GOING ON FOREVER YOU JUST HAVE MORE WAYS TO HEAR ABOUT IT, SEE IT abuse, neglect, racism, sexism isn't new. Now people tape everything
Racism has been filmed since cameras were developed. Remember when crackers sold photos of lynchings? Remember all the racist portrayals of black people in movies? Remember the Rodney King beating? I think the difference now is that more people are caring. RIPGeorgeFloyd
Please tell me about oppression, Mr. Millionaire.
Will Smith is Right 'Racism is Not New its Just Now Being Recorded'
So true.
Has he come out yet?
RachelRoams ...and produced for the outcome they want. Just saying...
Don’t forget that these cameras also prove on many more occasions that the police did nothing wrong. Two major examples are the case in Texas where an itch claimed she was raped while in custody and the football player who lied about being brutalized by the Las Vegas PD.
