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

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Im sorry if that offended you, Queen. And Im sorry that insult offended you more than a so called black reporter acting as a white supremacist mouthpiece did.

She didn't act as a white supremacist anything. What she did was present him with an opportunity. She asked him to speak to those people who are struggling with the idea of supporting his film because of what they perceive as a lack of empathy on his part. That is the essence of his responses. Guilty or not, he is missing an opportunity to gain a plethora of support just by speaking out about rape, taking responsibility for engaging in risky behavior and having empathy for contributing to an environment that resulted in awful consequences for those involved.

He doesn't have to do any of this. And people don't have to watch his movie. In a vacuum, that sounds all well and good. But he DOES want people to see his film and those people want to hear certain things. That's where it gets complex. Unfortunately, he's not doing a good job of selling the film. He's smug and insufferable. At this point, I would rather watch Charlie Manson play Mandela.

Like i said, blk women been showing out they asses this year..

The Powers That Be must of added a microchip into their weaves. They under mind control.

I already said I'm still supporting the movie. What else you want? I have to enjoy looking at him? People don't have a right to be bothered by how he's approached these interviews? He has every right to not say anything. He was found Not Guilty. But he's choosing to speak and it has rubbed some people the wrong way.

How so?

Nah @"Will Munny" is right. Its was always black guys running bustos in HS. If white boys do it they keep it on the low.

You're being ridiculous. Dont u wanna see how the revolt went down?

 

[dallas' 4 eva]

Just because he was acquitted doesn't mean he was completely blameless for the way that he acted.

Bruh.....

 

[BedStuy]

He handled this ALMOST as well as this could be handled. I would have answered her questions very directly and not skirt around them shits at all.

ROBIN: Some people feel like you aren't showing any remorse.

NATE: Remorse means showing guilt or regret for doing something wrong. I didn't do anything wrong. I was falsely accused. I was acquitted. I'm sorry that the young lady took her own life, but I'm sorry to the same extent that I would be for ANY person who takes their life. But 'remorse'? That's not something I feel because I don't feel I did anything wrong.

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

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.

Yaaaaawwwwnnn

I always knew that bullshit Vibe article pandering to liberal whts, and blk feminist was gonna come back to bite Nate in the ass.Trying to empathise WILL NEVER WORK, WHEN THE OUTRAGE IS FAKE.

Y'all tried to pull the same FAKE OUTRAGE, on Micheal B Jordan just last year.

The only difference is, Micheal B. didn't have rape charges looming over him..

From 1999...

Where was this outrage when "Beyond The Lights Came Out???", The fake victim killed herself in 2012, Y'all rushed to see "Beyond The Lights" in 2014...

What i find funny is, y'all always fail to bring up the fact that, the fake victim falsely accused her own sister,

and her brother-in-law of kidnapping...

the fake victim was arrested, and put in rehab. after the fake victim came out of rehab, her family wasn't fucking with her like that, so she killed herself.

Hey, they did the same thing to Tyson. Sent that man to jail without letting the jury hear that his accuser had already made a false rape allegation against an ex-boyfriend because she was afraid what her dad would say when he found out she was having sex.

Receipt ... 4 all those who ask

Jennifer’s psychosis took on a violent streak and she even accused Sharon and her husband of kidnapping her after Jennifer was admitted to a mental institution.

“We worried, all of us, that she might kidnap her son one day,” Sharon said. “She was in such a condition.”

Eventually, Jennifer was placed in a halfway house in Quakertown, Pennsylvania, by the Women’s Law Project (the same group that brought the civil lawsuit settlement against Penn State on her behalf). At that point, her family feared for her life, and their own lives.

“I had to shut my blinds my curtains—we didn’t know if she was going to just show up and we didn’t know what she was going to do,” Sharon said.

On April 15, 2012—more than 10 years after she faced Parker and Celestin in court—Jennifer swallowed 199 Rite Aid sleeping pills and, according to her coroner’s report, died that morning. She wasn’t discovered until the evening.

But But Nate....

 

[Peace_79]

Niggas is getting these jokes off about OB's Uber driving habits. But shiiiiiiid, I can unequivocally say that I wouldn't even dream of considering thinking about being a fucking uber driver in Chicago. Almost don't even matter who you pick up. Fuck around and catch a stray sitting at a stop light with a 60-year old accountant sitting in the back.

This nigga said he unequivocally ... wouldnt even dream ... of considering ... thinking about ...

doing that shit....

He used the whole English language to articulate his point.

Nigga was UBER - aversed to that shit ...

 

[Westie]

I don't want this to be a gender issue or an opportunity to bash black women specifically

Many black women are going to support the movie and don't feel the need to bash Nate

OB already said she gonna support the flick but just don't like dude face

@westie just hate black men

Yo how's your nubian value having white queen doing?

I think between you, nate parker, and I, only one of us dates black people so....

@Brother_Five

 

[deadeye]

Im sorry if that offended you, Queen. And Im sorry that insult offended you more than a so called black reporter acting as a white supremacist mouthpiece did.

She didn't act as a white supremacist anything. What she did was present him with an opportunity. She asked him to speak to those people who are struggling with the idea of supporting his film because of what they perceive as a lack of empathy on his part.

What does he need to feel empathy for?

He was falsely accused of rape........along with his roommate..........and both of them were acquitted in a court of law.

Considering those circumstances, he's shown tremendous restraint.

In my opinion, he should be commended for not losing his composure because most people would have a difficult time being sympathetic to someone who falsely accused them of rape.

 

[Westie]

This thread shows the difference between men and women. Logic vs y'all females arguing with emotion. If he is innocent and felt that he was lied on no need to show any empathy

exactly. how do you argue sound logical points with "I can't stand to see his face for 2 hours?" Lmao, dead...

@obnoxiouslyfresh and @Westie probably saw nothing wrong with OJ having to pay millions in Civil Court for "wrongful death" of that dead Coke whore, (trashy insult) Nicole despite being acquitted of murder

Seriously, I'd like to know how niggas are acting like I villainize all black men?? That's actually extremely insulting.

Y'all tried to pull the same FAKE OUTRAGE, on Micheal B Jordan just last year.

The only difference is, Micheal B. didn't have rape charges looming over him..

From 1999...

Where was this outrage when "Beyond The Lights Came Out???", The fake victim killed herself in 2012, Y'all rushed to see "Beyond The Lights" in 2014...

What i find funny is, y'all always fail to bring up the fact that, the fake victim falsely accused her own sister,

and her brother-in-law of kidnapping...

the fake victim was arrested, and put in rehab. after the fake victim came out of rehab, her family wasn't fucking with her like that, so she killed herself.

Don't "yall " me. I don't even know wtf you're talking about with Michael b Jordan.

I'm not outraged in the LEAST BIT. I'm sick of you niggas putting words in my fucking mouth.

Im sorry if that offended you, Queen. And Im sorry that insult offended you more than a so called black reporter acting as a white supremacist mouthpiece did.

She didn't act as a white supremacist anything. What she did was present him with an opportunity. She asked him to speak to those people who are struggling with the idea of supporting his film because of what they perceive as a lack of empathy on his part.

What does he need to feel empathy for?

He was falsely accused of rape........along with his roommate..........and both of them were acquitted in a court of law.

Considering those circumstances, he's shown tremendous restraint.

In my opinion, he should be commended for not losing his composure because most people would have a difficult time being sympathetic to someone who falsely accused them of rape.

Isn't this the same mule face bitch that made Breezy throw a chair through a window??

I digress

I don't want this to be a gender issue or an opportunity to bash black women specifically

Many black women are going to support the movie and don't feel the need to bash Nate

OB already said she gonna support the flick but just don't like dude face

@westie just hate black men

Yo how's your nubian value having white queen doing?

I think between you, nate parker, and I, only one of us dates black people so....

@Brother_Five

Go fuck yourself, sir
