Zone1 John Leguizamo Buys Full Page New York Times Ad Asking Emmy Voters to Choose ‘Non-White Artists’

[IM2]

How about they pick those who have done outstanding work regardless of color or wealth or hairstyle, or any other bullshit...

And how about you recognize that has never really been done? Whites have been getting awards for decades while more outstanding work by non white artists was not awarded.

 

[Failzero]

Hope he gets to see the Mass Deportations Along with “We ain’t gowin no where’s eh “ George Lopez

 

[22lcidw]

He urges people to vote for categories like “best actor” or “best director” on the basis of skin color.

He is an asshole.

He's a Pest!

I's not banning. Sorry, but it's not banning. Banning would be keeping people off of a list.

Hear that everybody?. This poster says this is NOT banning whites. All the left has on this issue is lies. Even they know this is indefensible.

 

[StatesRightsForever]

I see no problem with that. It's a closed group or people in the industry who get to vote. Their votes (I've lived in Hollywood) never affected my decisions. Not sure why you people would care.

Very funny. If an actor told the voters to vote white, you would be screaming SYSTEMIC RACISM.

It used to be that way but no more. The anti-white hatred is everywhere.

Persecute blacks = racism

Persecute whites = fighting racism.

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Nope.

That's just the kind of shit that triggers you.

Leg did not tell people HOW to vote.

Read what he actually wrote.

It may help you recover from being triggered so badly.

John didn't tell people HOW to vote.

reading and comprehension fail on your part -- again

 

[Mr. Friscus]

Activist and actor John Leguizamo took out a full-page ad in the New York Times on Sunday urging Emmy Award voters to nominate “non-white artists.”

The 63-year-old explained the move in an X post.

“I know everyone is exhausted about inclusion, but not us who are not included. So that’s why I took this ad out in the NYTimes. White peoples (sic) are only 58.9% of the population but over represented in top positions across the board. They are the decision makers in tech, banking, corporations, medicine and streamers and Hollywood!” Leguizamo wrote.

Here you have it, a "reputable" legacy media outlet printing a full page ad that says loud and proud DO NOT VOTE FOR WHITE PEOPLE

 

[Grumpyolman]

As the Washington Compost and CNN sinks further beneath the waves. These commie morons will spout garbage till the bitter end. Hope they like homelessness.

The NY Times is going to exist long after you leave this world, traitor.

 

[Mr. Friscus]

The NY Times is going to exist long after you leave this world, traitor.

Why should anyone take the NYT seriously when they cry racism around every corner yet print ads that say "DON'T GIVE EMMY AWARDS TO WHITE PEOPLE"

???

 

[BackAgain]

The racism and antisemitism coming from the Left is chilling.

It truly is.

Like all libs, the NYT says anti-white racism is not racism. It's how we fight racism.

LIBERALS ARE INSANE.

How about this:

View attachment 960309

How about addressing "and..." meaning wtf is the OP really about and what is wrong with it?

John is asking his 'peers' to "consider" not asking them to choose nonwhites over whites.

...

It's sad that you think so little of "artists of color" that you believe they need extra help to achieve anything.

Racist.

 

[DudleySmith]

Apparently white people are supposed to focus on brown people sniveling and babbling about brown 'cultures' or something instead of their own.

Here's a clue, Juan; south of the Rio Grande is a huge continent and hundreds of millions of hispanics you can sell your crap to. You just don't stand out here as a talent. You and George Lopez can get married and take a bus tour or something.Shakira does great on 3 continents, people pay to see Jennifer Lopez do pretty much nothing but strike poses for cameras, etc., and many others with major talent do great. It's you who sucks, not white people.

 

[Mac-7]

I's not banning. Sorry, but it's not banning. Banning would be keeping people off of a list.

Either way its lib insanity

Inclusion by exclusion?

Only in lib la la land

 

[StatesRightsForever]

Why do we even give awards to entertainers, whatever their race.? Entertainers are completely useless people with jobs of no social value. Like praising people for having a great baseball card collection. We should honor great engineers and inventors.

 

[Anathema]

If I had a vote, (which obviously I don’t,) and I saw an ad like that I’d never vote for another minority actor or actress for any award; even if I felt they were the best candidate.

So far as I’m concerned that type of politicking for awards should be beneath those people who are actually worthy of the awards.
