The way some people disregard the words of the cast and crew of The Color Purple, painting them, mainly the black actresses on set, as being dramatic and denying them and their needs any dignity is atrocious. Seeing people calling Taraji "dramatic" for, rightfully so, complaining about her and her costars not being provided Ubers or just anyone else to drive them, having to either drive themselves or use their own money when she is giving valid points at the staggering treatment she and her cast mates are receiving. Do some actors necessarily mind driving themselves? No, some are probably fine with it. But wouldn't it make sense to also provide them the option if they want to be chauffeured? Especially taking into consideration the risk to their safety that could pose given the long hours that they work. Reactions to this is especially sinister when you have people, when seeing black and brown women talk about their struggles and poor treatment, immediately go "oh they're just being dramatic" and then acting like they know anything about their wealth when literally 1.) The Strike provided many examples of how pay actually works for these actors and 2.) Taraji has stated many times that throughout her long career she has not been paid what she deserves and often has to stand up for herself to get it. Don't even get me started on one of the actresses, Danielle Brookes, saying during a panel that they weren't given their own dressing rooms or food until Oprah stepped in. Those conditions were not fair toward the cast and crew.

Reseña | 'Peacemaker', Ep. 7: 'No Arrastres mi Corazón, Dragón'

A este punto de 'Peacemaker', cualquier cosa puede pasar.

Lo dije, lo afirmé y estaba en lo correcto, el séptimo episodio de Peacemaker es aún mejor que los anteriores. Esta primera parte de la recta final de la serie es brillante por la tensión que se crea al elevar los riesgos al máximo, a este punto de la trama cualquier cosa puede suceder y no todos los personajes salen salvos y sanos. Nos han hecho encariñarnos tanto con ellos que al verlos en lo…
