“It’s hard when you don’t fit the traditional view of beauty. I’ve gotten letters from people that say if I’d just get my nose done or if I wasn’t so dark, I’d be OK-looking. That’s why I love this Cinderella, because Brandy is a beautiful, everyday-looking black girl.” -Whoopi Goldberg

Jayme Lawson, co-star of Sinners alongside Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo, spoke @hollywoodreporter at the NAACP Image Awards following the racist slur incident that occurred during the BAFTAs ceremony.

Lawson addressed the situation with clarity and composure.

In her words:

“That man’s disability got exploited that night.”

“That’s not inclusivity. That’s exploitation.”

“You censored one Black man and failed to protect two others.”

Jayme Lawson criticised the handling of the moment by both BAFTAs and the BBC broadcast, arguing that proper care and protection were not exercised for the Black actors involved.

She also shared why spaces like the NAACP Image Awards feel different, noting that they are environments where dignity, safety, and humanity are prioritised.
