specifically black women...it was a wrap. He ain't have to lose them imho because we want to support this film.

Like think about how many extra black cool points he had for making a Nat Turner movie! Now imagine how many he had to have lost to get us here, lol

if he made it about her, said something about raising our men right(less cosby poundcake, more boho black family), said that no matter what happened that night he doesn't want to raise 5 girls in a world where no doesn't mean no or if you're a too drunk its a man's right to take advantage..etc

The thing is Nate was never going to get white people to like him. But he fucked up by not realizing who he was really trying to apologize to; black women.

All the op eds that hit my time feed were by black woman, hell OKP had one on the front page.

*Although I wonder if he could have crossed over into white audiences if Hollywood decided the Nat Turner movie was going to be their token movie of the year
