- James Earl Jones Was BANNED From Every Talk Show After This Happened
Jones has one of the biggest movie repertoires I’ve ever seen. He made his acting debut on stage at the iconic Ramsdelle Theater in Manistee, Michigan, playing the titular character Othello. His acting was so magical that it won him a spot on the ABC anthology series Theater Five. He then made his Broadway debut in 1957, playing Edward the Butler in Dore Schary’s Sunrise at Campobello.

Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, and Samuel L. Jackson weren't the only high-profile Black actors out there. There's Danny Glover, Forest Whitaker, Lawrence Fishburne, Wesley Snipes, John Amos, and Louis Gossett Jr to name others.
Did they audition?
I’m so glad I was raised during such a time of Black empowerment, literature and self love.
That must have been righteous.
Self-righteous.
@@ezra3776 no not self righteous but a period of time when righteousness was at the the forefront of mankind's consciousness. Before the war on drugs, the crack epidemic, the decline in literacy, the disdain for your original self. It's important to know these things have existed, because you can go back and regain or gather this information. It's important to know from whence you came and what people did to resist the status quo. It's a template to grow from. I'm no better than anyone I have a sincere desire to improve and to share knowledge and wisdom.
💖✨ I LOVED James Earl Jones in "Claudine."
To me, it was his-- dare I say-- ''BEST WORK.''
This was also Diahann Carroll's best work, too.
James said all of that while sitting next to his Caucasian girlfriend
Just like they do now, nothing has changed.
@@fah232It was more prevalent today than back then. Back then if you were a high-profile black man and only dated white women you were seen as an uncle Tom. Today you can date out with little repercussions.

@@fah232who are "they"?
You.@@daxterclark5092
I never knew he had said those things,I respect his talent and acting skills.
I'm still stuck on Quinn being viewed as white.🤣
Wasn't Quinn Irish and Mexican?
@@VeeFoster Mexican
Mexican is a nationality, not necessarily a color or race. Some Mexicans are classified and identify as white
Quinn was White.
Irish and Mexican
I respect him as a talented actor and voice in the Arts.
Samuel Jackson didn't start acting until his 40's.... wasn't acting back then.
SJ started acting in 1972 at around 24 years old.
He was acting. He got his big break in Jungle Fever.
@@dshooter6391 he got his break in "Coming to America"... McDonald's shot gun scene.
I have a dream… that one day, black ppl will learn to ‘do no harm’ to each other in public.
He spoke his truth
Actor Anthony Quinn was half white. His father was Irish American, but his mother was Mexican. So he was biracial.
Never met the man but anyone who can claim White in Mexico will be White.
Truth is functioning as the lighter version of self has always been more advantageous.
Truth is truth brothers and sisters, it ain't easy walking in this Black skin I wear.
WE DONT CARE
And she skipped over the Bingo Long movie with Billy Dee Williams.
James Earl Jones definitely is a talented actor, but when he said black women are militant I disagree with him on that statement. The way I see any woman can be militant it's not about her skin color. Us as black people we really do hate ourselves and each other. We need to stop this nonsense and start loving ourselves and one another.
You are right it is not person on this earth is going to make me feel bad because i am black rich or poor famous or the every day person social media is full of it and people love it and agree with everything they say about black people not me
Stop 🛑 it! You can't speak for me, I don't hate myself, I love me some me.
Historically through the present, black women have had more to be militant about. White women too, again due to invidious gender discrimination, but less so than women of color. James Earl Jones simply as a giant of a man has (after conquering his childhood stutter) relatively strolled through life making easy victories, alone for his height, brawn, baritone and geniality being the admiree of all shorter men, and attractive to women.
True "any woman can be militant" but ours stay at the constant ready my brother.
The dysfunctionality of our Black unit dates way back to events put into motion, by a gentleman named Lynch.
We need to make concerted efforts to combat this deep imbedded bug. My daughter is the most militant Black woman I know, I can't get her to zip it for a second to share a point.
Ivy League education has convinced her she knows all.
White Supremacy/racism in full effect...as usual the problem
A Family Thing 1996. Eventually we will see the continued destruction.
Luke I'm am your Father
* I'm your
@@JudgeJulieLit bro who cares
Mr. Jones do what you have to do because the best actor gets the best role.
The best doesn't always get the nod in life, the connected does!
SELF HATER
Informative. I have always liked JEJ for the work he had done being a 70s baby. I didn't like how this video lumped his achievements in comparison with Sam Jackson and Morgan Freeman. These actors were not yet in the game (at the least, Hollywood). There were other black actors like Harry Belafonte, Louis Gossett Jr. and Clarence Williams III around struggling during this era.
Welllll , he’s not w…..nvm 😂
Although James Earl Jones was indeed an very great Actor, he was still relegated to portraying not the best of movie roles he starred in which were very few despite the long period of time he has been in this Business, the average African American Man has always DESIRED Caucasian Women on some level or other 😒, Sidney Poitier stayed Married to the SAME CAUCASIAN WOMAN for over 50yrs. Black Athletes have chosen these Women OVER African American Women for many years, the recently Deceased Actor Richard Rountree married several Caucasian Women throughout his Life, Fred Williamson also, even at 80+yrs. Of age Morgan Freeman has these type of Women in his Life as well!!!
Less drama with other nationalities, our sisters are serious maintenance. I been married to one for over 40 years, at 64 I figure why start over again,,,.
@@user-qu4ey5yy3fwell,damn!! Oh,shit!! 😆
Ummm, not every black man...
@user-qu4ey5yy3f That narrative is old and has long been debunked. Look at all the high profile black men that are getting dragged or have been dragged for filth by non black women... Johnathan Majors, Jeezy, Michael Strahan, Dr. Dre, Tiger Woods just to name a few. You guys are always quiet when your preferences are even worse than the women your disparaging
so ???? your point being what ????? black ppl do not OWN each other .... the sooner we get out of that mindset the better !!!!
Wow this totally caught me off guard even though I disagree with his views on black women he is a talented actor.
Takes deep introspection to see his point but see it we must, if we are to change the trajectory of our future generations.
70% of Black households are single parent units,
WE'VE GOT A SERIOUS PROBLEM, sister Johnson.
We don’t know if he said it!!! He did Speak some Truth if he made that Statement!!
I agree with James Earl Jones depiction of BW.
But James Earl Jones did not don white face to play King Lear (which he did, magnificently) in the NY Shakespeare Festival in 1974. Nor did Denzel Washington there in the 1990s when he played King Richard 3.
Are you truly serious with your ending comments?!?. How are you to say since one group is ok with him now that the other should follow suit!?
I have no issue with James Earl Jones, however, you can’t make a blanket statement that someone should just be OK because someone else is OK. Somewhere OK with slavery so everybody needs to just get over it and be OK??? That just seems to be very presumptuous.
Man i think my skin got light the way i clicked so damn fast i know i skid marked my skin screenburn out dis mutha🤔 "SAYWHAAA"!!!!
Although James Earl is a great actor, I care nothing for him because of his anti Black comments.
like you love all black people ........
@@paul4cager0 I never said that I did.
James likely paid his dues in life, let him date who he prefers
So the Bio Pic on Henri Christophe never materialized 🤔😡
I'm a proud middle-aged Haitian American man originally from Flatbush, Brooklyn and my heroes are Toussaint Louverture, Jean-Jacques Dessalines, Henri Christophe, and PaPa Doc Duvalier.
I highly doubt that I will ever see a quality film about the Haitian Revolution in my lifetime because the European establishment hates us for it!
And I'm glad that Quinn never portrayed Christophe because it would have been a fucking joke!
@@zroy9263 I really don't understand that you compare the dictator Francois Duvalier who was a monster, who killed more than 100,000 Haitians and who destroyed Haiti to revolutionaries like Jean Jacques Dessalines, Henry Christophe and Toussaint Louverture!
I think when people ask to only play roles that are equal to their views their color or sex or their culture limits them .. and type casts them real quick .. know one talked about Manuel ..I forgot his surname playing Alexander Graham bell .. a Latin playing a white colonists.. ACTING is acting ..so long as they play the role with respect to the character ..I see nothing wrong with it
Am I the only one who Thought they should’ve did a better job with her choice of wording
I don't agree with you trying control a person's opinion. This is JEJ opinion of black women. BW sure does have an opinion about him. You can't put everybody into this young generation's philosophy. JEJ is from the old school his philosophy isn't going to fit into what ppl are talking about today.
The snubbing of Jones by the media seems to be more of a leftist-liberal establishment snub than a "black" community snub. Jones is one of my all-time favorite actors and in my mentions of him with people across the board he is always held in the highest esteem and reverence. It seems to me that most people are almost completely unaware of any of the controversies associated with him.
I understand why JEJ said what he said, but he never should have said that. I'm a black woman. I know. many feminine black women. JEJ is a great actor. He could be Beethoven.
In a makeup to make him lighter. Anthony Quinn is an old favorite of mine. I could see him playing a Haitian Emperor with a little dark makeup. Peace ✌🏾
Beethoven was bi-racal but they to keep that hushed up
That's okay Earl, no black woman wants to be with you either.
I doubt that.
Exactly dollydagger4306. No one wants a weak, self-hating. whyte loving bm.
Well that's yr fantasy.
…also Jones’ understanding of History, Black History is imperfect and incomplete. He pays too little attention to how economics and culture❤ intersect oh well. Just sayn’…
Excellent actor his presence and voice dominate the screen and stage never seen a play or movie I didn't enjoy. James Earl Jones never having met him appears to be someone you would like and be comfortable around. I adore him.
James Earl Jones used to and maybe still attends 'Diddy-like parties'...
🌽y
a lot of black men who run after white women are not really attracted to women
😅😅😅
The lies.
I love❤James Earl Jones regardless to who he choose to love. Im a black woman. He is a great legendary black actor .
Every man just isn't built physically or mentally for a Black woman, and they know that.
I'm not mad at JEJ. He seemed to be very uptight imho. He was an average actor in my circle and hardly no mention of him. Don't even know if he's still alive. I guess I missed that part.
Every black woman who are all up in arms because of what he said about black women proved his point
James spoke our truth as Blacks, sisters demand to wear their pants and yours too. We are so off balance as Black folks.
@@user-qu4ey5yy3f There's A REASON For That. The AGENDA Of White Supremacy Is To DESTROY Black People As A Race,Like The Great Mother/Teacher Ancestor Dr. Frances Cress Welsing Warned They Want Black Men to Become Like Women And Black Women To Become Like Men,And It's Coming To Pass. We Should EMBRACE Each Other As Black Men And Women the Gender WAR Is PLOT To DIVIDE And CONQUER!!!
Yep and Black men wear the panties...in prison, for drugs, or non-payment of child support...all kinds of crimes, they can't even follow police orders when stopped because they know they're dirty and cry innocent. They can have you!!!! Nothing special.
💯💯
Not true James Earl Jones is beloved of the black community
Truth be told James Earl Jones.🙏🏿💙🙏🏿
Younger people because they look over everything, people that came up during his time didn't. The black community used to stand for something..
@@fah232Exactly!
Who in the black like this guy and why does he condem Anthony quin when he has those views on black women I am fed up of these men like jones
I agree with his assessment of black women but it's how the system has treated them and how black men treated them in respect to how black people have been treated in this country period .. black people had to become more hard and aggressive to earn a semblance of respect that other cultures have been treated.. but times have changed it will only benefit to be a little more soft ..a feet I thing our culture has accomplished
Lynch purposely destabilized our Black women in the process rendering our Black evolution very difficult. Our biggest battle is among ourselves (black men/ woman).
We seldom behave as allies but adversaries.
Jones a great legendary actor! He is not fragmented he is blatantly honest! There is nothing wrong with dating women out of your race! It's a choice of flavor! No one should be condemned for out of race dating! Most black women are not on a Real Black Man's intellectual and Fiscal level! Face it! Jones is a Great Performer and Intellect! Have admired all his movies and performances! Get real racism exist! Jones is a realist! Black women are dominant and head strong, which makes them unattractive! Some of them are Bone Heads. This is very true about most black women! I have not dated black women for 36 years. Out of race dating and relationships have been more successful! Each to their own and different strokes for different folks. Different people and folk speak despicable blatant truth! Jones is Remarkable!
Lol. You must be a comedian or just pathetic. 😅😂
Why are you telling us about your proble. S
This is bull str8! Just something to try to keep us divided. My question is, who can walk in his shoes 👞??
Black men making better choices. Why would he want a low value/ high body count demon Democratic feminist?
When he could get a white one with all that was previously mentioned only encased in white skin
True 😁
But everything expressed is totally accepted by Black men if the woman is non Black. Weight body count children not his own etc
@@sharrigarvin3348 Then level up creature! 😂
Next
@DrizzleBeaches Level up to what you would accept in a non Black?
Pass
Yo, check this out to a degree James earl Jones was right when you compare what he said to today's black woman. No disrespect towards my black queen
Yeah, to self-haters...
Thank you, my brother, I was thinking the same and reading the comments to see if anyone else felt this way.
@@fah232 We are and have been "self haters" can we overcome this, it's the question??
Are enough of us recognizing this flaw in our assigned nature??
@@user-qu4ey5yy3f Good question, some of us do recognize it but a lot are still in denial. I think at some point most of us will get it and make the necessary changes.
You didn't have to add that last sentence, I mean technically you can it was your comment but they're not Queens, like tf
He told truth and yall dont like it. Get over it 😡
