Here is why Cynthia Erivo, in particular, should not play Harriet Tubman.

TL; DR: There’s a troubling pattern of Cynthia repeatedly, deliberately, selectively *choosing* to not give respect to African-American heritage – the heritage of Harriet Tubman.

This thread is about why Cynthia Erivo should not play Harriet Tubman, “the Moses of her people” & a sacred African-American ancestor. It goes beyond Cynthia’s birthplace, accent, heritage & even her association with an ethnic bigot.

It rests on a pattern of behavior & choices.

Rare footage of George Washington Carver at Tuskegee University in 1937. He was about 73 years old. You are looking at a man who was born enslaved, and died a renowned scientist and inventor.

I’ve always drawn inspiration from what Dr. King called life’s most persistent and urgent question: "What are you doing for others?" Let’s honor his legacy by standing up for what is right in our communities and taking steps to make a positive impact on the world.

Kim K and Chrissy Teigen are having fun dragging a man for wearing fake Yeezy’s. Y’all think it’s funny. Meanwhile he’s been in these streets helping the youth of Chicago. If Melania Trump was dragging Rhymefest would y’all have this same energy? Nah, she’d be called racist.

The intersection of state and sexual violence has always been especially dangerous for Black women. We’re not safe out here. #CopsToo https://t.co/vgJjUh7pAJ via @TheRoot

[Britni Danielle @BritniDWrites]

This is a reminder that sexual violence against women by law enforcement is also police brutality.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos' wealth increases by $275 million every single day. Meanwhile, Amazon workers have to rely on food stamps and public assistance just to survive. This is what a rigged economy is all about.

Jax's sadistic parents are non-compliant regarding Jax's distended stomach. His stomach appears to be getting worse and they are schadenfreude so they are not concerned. #SAD #Disheartening #Wicked #monsters #unfitparents #scammers #LockThemUp #SocialServices #heathens
