Some dudes just need to smoke on that I don't give a fuck herbals and calm the fuck down. Who gives a fuck? Some people say cucumbers taste better pickled.
 
I think people are missing the point of the video tho..... here is one of his responses about the video

Nia Long doesn't have white men banging at her door. She had to ASK them to add a white man to that cast. And it's not like Eddie Cibrian is some major actor. Let's just keep it real. I'll give you something to think about Sanaa Lathan did that movie "Something New". After that she has had NOTHING noteworthy until now. Now the white guy from "Something New" has had his own tv show "The Mentalist" running for YEARS now. Black folks, and especially females, keep boosting people who do NOTHING for them. - Jason Black
 
I don't think it had anything to do with 'boosting someone else' tho. I thought it had something to do with making her character seem more genuine. Like she said, the reality is that black women date white men. I honestly think that people may be reaching with this conversation.
 
I think he feels she took a job from a black actor based on his comments:

Black women spend too much time deflecting. When the subject is Black women they ALWAYS try to point the finger at Black men, white women, white men, ANYTHING to AVOID having to take accountability. This has come pathological at this point and it's just sad now.

Taye Diggs was not campaigning the director of the movie to TAKE a role from a Black woman and GIVE it to a white woman. THAT is the difference. - Jason Black
 
" It's real that the black make actors in that film have white wives. Depictions of romantic relationships aside, the reality is far removed"

Not really the point. Those actors have all caught flack at one point or another for their choices, and they knew they were going to ahead of time. Meanwhile she gets to sit up here on an interview and explain away her suggesting replacing a black actor with a Caucasian one as "it's 2013, get with the program. Everyone is marrying everyone" which really isn't true looking at the numbers. As TBA said (from 10:00 to 10:40) one of the male actors pulling this same stunt would not be met with the friendly interview atmosphere here. Google Taye Diggs name and what's the first thing that you see? - Jason Black

 
True ^^

Plus how many white actors/actresses in the hundreds of flicks demand black men/women as love interest... but you have a black person campaigning to be with a white in the one of the few black films
