"Michelle Rodriguez "minorities should stop stealing white superhero role..."


  

          

Reporter: "Are you going to be the Green Lantern?"

Michelle Rodriguez: "Hahaha! That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard!"

http://www.tmz.com/videos/0_fq1116yl/

Michelle Rodriguez: "I think it's so stupid for like, everybody because of this, like you know, whole 'Minorities in Hollywood' thing."

Reporter: "Well it's been all over the internet..."

Michelle Rodriguez: "But it's so stupid. It's like, stop stealing, you know, all the white people's superheroes. Like, make up your own, you know what I'm saying? What's up with that?"




See, if she act like she knew there's been a black GL since the 70s, you'd think she actually cares about superheroes, but she's really just promoting white hegemony in mass media. This is just a crabs in a barrel mentality. She don't want to let Donald Glover be great.
