Did she just ask him to apologize for a rape he was acquitted for?

[Westie]

Their is a difference between rape and being taken advantage of this white bitch got taken advantage of

So it's not rape then if the woman's unconscious right? Like passed out and someone fucks her because that's along the same lines. Because you can't say no and someone took advantage of her unconscious body.

 

[Brother_Five]

Fuck out of here

U don't give ppl an opportunity to apologize for some shit they said they didn't do

If u did that in real life it would be a fucking problem

These folks got y'all all twisted and confused

Find the word apologize in my post.

Don't try to play word games or do mental gymnastics with me fam

Why the fuck should he feel empathy for someone who (in his eyes) tried to ruin his life?

Why should he take the opportunity to be remorseful for some shot that you all imagined?

Also, the fact that u hold unrepentant convicted lunatic Charles Manson in higher regard than this dude shows how easily manipulated the population is

Fuck out of here

Hold up though, I get him not wanting to apologize due to the legalities and maybe he feels like he wasn't wrong in the treatment of this woman, but why is he implying regret here?

I’m trying to absorb a lot of information. I watched The Hunting Ground. I read Roxane Gay’s open letter, I read Maiysha Kai’s open letter, I read Demetria D’Oyley. Just to really…what do I need to learn about the situation? If I’m really down…if I’m really serious about changing my attitude, if I’m really serious that those comments are wrong, then what do I need to be feeling? And how do I get to that place that there’s an assault against women?

So I sat my daughter down and I talked about this specific situation, it wasn’t the first time because when she became a certain age I talked about it to her anyway. But I said you know, I gotta look at the situation as an opportunity to grow and become more empathetic and more sensitive to issues to that are outside of my everyday, and I don’t want to send you to college and say, “Be careful and watch out.” I said that, for one, when you’re in a relationship with someone you have to be in control of that relationship and you have to be as open as you can about everything, straight up, out the gate. We have a very unique relationship because I don’t ever want her to feel like she can’t come to me, so I allow her to talk to me about everything, which is hard. Being a woman in 2016 if very different, imagine being a woman 20 years ago, and when we talk about consent, maybe 20 years from now we’ll know things about consent and examine it from a different perspective than we are now.

I’ll say this, this whole situation I’m approaching from a standpoint of humility. I’m sorry for all the women who are survivors who felt hurt by my words because they were insensitive and they were nonchalant.

EBONY.com: I think the thing that could have perhaps handled this differently is if you came off more contrite from the jump. Like you said, if you had more empathy from the beginning, or if it wasn’t as self-focused…

Nate Parker: But you know what, I was…

EBONY.com: So why did you give those two interviews first? Because I feel like I had read some articles [about the rape case], but it wasn’t like this thing, until…

Nate Parker: This is hard; I’ve been trying to figure out how to say this. Not everyone has the best intentions. I thought I was giving the interview, at the time of those two interviews–and one really just bit off the other–I didn’t know the status of the women. I didn’t know. I was acting as if I was the victim, and that’s wrong. I was acting as if I was the victim because I felt like, my only thought was I’m innocent and everyone needs to know. I didn’t even think for a second about her, not even for a second.

You asked me why I wasn’t empathetic? Why didn’t it come off more empathetic? Because I wasn’t being empathetic. Why didn’t it come off more contrite? Because I wasn’t being contrite. Maybe I was being even arrogant. And learning about her passing shook me, it really did. It really shook me.

Damned if he do, damned if he don't huh?

Huh?

Take responsibility for your actions she shouldn't have put herself in that situation. If I pass out drunk and wake up with my wallet missing I have to chalk it up to poor decision making on my part

That nigga should of asked that bitch what about black on black crime

Having your wallet missing and your body forcibly entered into are two different things. That is fucking ridiculous. So a woman needs to take responsibility for passing out and leaving her vagina unattended but the nigga who

forced himself into that vagina shouldn't?

Addressing that you had poor judgment in a situation is better, and it would put him in a more favorable light than being an arrogant prick, which he is.

 

[Chi Snow]

She's a liar

He ain't wrong for not giving attention to a liar

 

[gns]

First off my nigga u r arguing with me

Second stop trying to make this about you and your specific word choices

Robins line of questioning is meant to make Nate look worse

There is nothing wrong with his responses if he believes he is innocent

He has addressed the issue numerous times so my questions are valid

Why are u ppl expecting contrition and empathy when he has stated numerous times that he is innocent?

What the fuck could he possibly say about this shit to make the fake outrage go away?

The outrage is fake

The expectations are fake

And it's sad how black ppl just fall in line with the dumb shit

Well I can think of a dozen or so famous men who have been accused of rape who I do not find repulsive and whose work I can still indulge. Outrage is over the top. I just have no interest in looking at him for 2 hours.

Thats cause u r part of the herd aka sheep and the media hasnt told u to dislike those guys yet so u cool with em....for now at least

 

[blacktux]

You two black women have a problem with black men being black men.

Dude is an arrogant prick because he wont show symapathy for a chick that tried to get him locked up for some shit he didnt do?

Well damn.

But why yall jumping on the man who DIDN'T force himself on her?

Nate Parker was found NOT GUILTY!!!

The outrage is fake as shit because the co-writer of the movie was found guilty at first yet cause he not a star or even a known name nobody gives a fuck. But since Nate Parker has a name and is somewhat famous lets all just bash and vilify him even though he was found not guilty.

This shit is very sad. Even worse its not surprising.

Hence why I said "found guilty at first"

They going hard as shit at the man who found not guilty from the very beginning but nothing at all to say to or about the man who was at one time found guilty.

 

[5th Letter]

If they couldn't charge a black man for raping a white woman in America then there's a chance he didn't do it. Niggas been locked up and/or killed based on accusations.

All black men are like him?? All black men are arrogant pricks? Is that what you're saying?

Nah what im saying is you have a problem with black masculinity if you call what we all saw in that interview an "arrogant prick"

Black men SHOULD be able to handle themselves like that brother. But they let women like you, obfresh, the interviewer and others shame them making them SOFT.

Then yall asking where the real men at next month. Cycle continues.

 

[Westie]

You know what's funn, I aint ever seen white women cape for actual black rape victims the way I seen black women cape for this one fake ass white bitch.

You remember white women caping for the black striper who accused the duke players of rape? Nope

What about that half white half asian cop who raped 13 women? White women cape for black women and crucify this nigga? Nope.

But you can put BW on a platform and she'll do what she's been doing for the past 30 years, shit all over niggas. It aint even about the white girl, not the fake ass rape victim anyway.

BW will take the issues they have with BM in real life and use them to tank a movie that EVERY black person been waiting to see for ever and a day.

Fuck these hoes they stay on some double agent shit.

Black women are tanking his movie? And projecting..... double agents... You're extremely dramatic.

I'm not even talking about that interview, I'm talking about in general.

I don't understand why this is all coming down to black women vs black men, because there's a black interviewer? Like there aren't any black women on his side? Some of yall are so quick to blame all black women for everything.

 

[manofmorehouse]

I don't excuse rape at all. Rapists deserve to be castrated. That said, it's a lot of situations women put themselves in that are dumb as fuck. Going to a niggas house after 11 and not assuming the nigga is trying to fuck is stupid. Smoking and drinking with a group of niggas and u the only chicks is stupid. I was born and raised in la. I can get shot on any day and it'll be a sad story. I increase my chances of getting shot by stepping out in all blue or all red.

But the re al issue at hand that no one wants to address and that proves a point I've been saying on here for years is women need to stop assuming that straight men and straight women can be platonic friends. That's where yall get shit fucked up. All these situations involve chick's chilling with niggas they thought were friends. I have a dick. U have a pussy. Not saying I'm raping anything because that's not my get down, but I'm not out here trying to be your friend. Understand that shit and don't put yourself in compromising situations
