“The problem with that is, black people have different views,” Crews said on the CBS show The Talk. “When you’re white, you can be Republican, Libertarian, Democrat. You can be anything. But if you’re black, you have to be one thing. Even Joe Biden said, ‘Hey man, if you don’t vote for me, you ain’t black.'”

The actor warned against “gatekeepers” of blackness.

“Blackness is always judged,” he explained. “It’s always put up against this thing, and I’m going, ‘Wait a minute: That right there is a supremacist move. You have now put yourself above other black people.'”

“We have people who have decided who is going to be black and who’s not,” Crews explained. “And I simply — because I have a mixed-race wife [Rebecca King-Crews] — have been discounted from the conversation a lot of the time, by very, very militant movements, the Black power movement. I’ve been called all kinds of things — like an Uncle Tom — simply because I’m successful, simply because I’ve worked my way out of Flint, Michigan.”

Crews became notorious for tweeting, “Defeating White supremacy without White people creates Black supremacy. Equality is the truth. Like it or not, we are all in this together.”

I respect his opinion.

It's disgraceful that in 2020 we still have people saying things like "you're not black enough" or "you're not really black." It's the new liberal, "progressive" racism and it's become more endemic than any classic form of racism where people use the n word or something.

He actually makes sense.

He's right. Gatekeepers is true. Sort of like 'tow the line'.

As Trump said, what the hell have you got to lose? Dems haven't really advance black people.

If you look at the stats, Latinos rise out of poverty via generational improvements and blacks don't. That's attributed to stronger family structure, good work ethic, and desire to do better than your parents generation.

Dare I say, less victim mentality.
