[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] I think you put it very well. It IS weird and tone deaf for Damon to explain diversity to Effie Brown. It just illustrates how even liberals and well-meaning white people can be biased without even realizing it.[/quote] [quote]+1 For sure.[/quote] Let's get one thing straight about diversity. Diversity DOESN'T exclude whites. In fact, it INCLUDES all people and emphasizes an appreciation of differences. A school that's 95% African American (excluding those from African nations) is NOT diverse. What Matt is saying is something anti-Affirmative Action folks have been saying for a long time - that we hire THE BEST person for the job. Now, that doesn't mean that we shut out minorities. In fact, in a truly diverse environment, we take time to learn about different perspectives. Sadly, this will never come to be until people feel free about expressing their true beliefs in a constructive way. But now that everything is so PC, what's said on the outside is not what's necessarily truly believed in the heart.[/quote] Actually what Matt seemed to be saying was that you achieve diversity in this film by hiring black people for the black parts. Pro tip: That's not really how you achieve diversity.[/quote] Pro tip, my ass Many SMART Libs are the WORST racists out there. You want the truth? Back them into a corner and see how they'll react. It's all a cover, and I say this as a white female. You can't cure cancer w/o finding its origin. Stop being dense, Amateur Tip.[/quote] I wanted to respond to this, but I honestly can't understand what the hell you're saying. In response to my comment that Matt Damon is wrong in thinking that you can make a good film representing minority viewpoints just by hiring black actors for the black parts rather than having minorities involved in every step of the process, YOU said . . . that smart, liberal white people are the worst racists of all plus how to cure cancer. Uh, that's not in any way a response to anything I said. Whatev.[/quote]
