Nola Darling struggles to stay true to herself and her dreams while juggling three lovers in this Spike Lee series based on his breakout film. - Zábava
Wow.. I can't stop thinking how STUNNING all these women are... Hollywood needs to wake up lol
Agreed
We need longer conversations please make this an actual show on Netflix as your consumer and subscriber I will watch this! Tap into your base!
TheWonderGirl23 I definitely agree! ✊🏾
Shout out to the Jamaicans👏👏👏
🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
I’m a black 16 year old woman aspiring to be an actress for film and television and this had been such an expositions insight into the industry. I still want nothing more than to achieve the accomplishments that they have, but sometimes it feels absolutely impossible. Thank you for this conversation, it needs to be said, acknowledged and improved.
Cool
You can do it!! I have faith in you, Nicole! Let these women inspire you, then take it to the next level. xoxo
You can do it!!! Don’t give up
Same girl
Very deep conversation THKS NETFLIX.
Chyna giving me such TLC creep vibes. I love it
Is there a part 2 to this conversation?
NK Rose fuck I HOPE NOT
Great question! I'd love it too!
on facebook!
There needs to be more people like Spike Lee representing black and brown culture giving us amazing stories
Great video!! Despite all the negative comments, BLACK people get the struggle!! This is real for us!
This show is truly art in motion, I found myself so inspired while watching. What exquisite beauty these women have I am here for it every episode ever season ❤️🌺🌎
Love this! A beautiful, relevant conversation with four Queens!👑
I wish this was longer. This was a great convo!
I really appreciate these lovely talented ladies going there, having this discussion of diversity in having an identity in the black community by telling our stories and truths! 💯❤👏🏾
Thank you for being strong pioneers & sharing your experiences.
We’re still becoming “the 1sts” for simple things & its 2019!
💯👏🏽👏🏽
I love this, these conversations are so important for the culture. Please give us more!!!
This is a great conversation! Love it!
Lotta weird comments.... but shout out 2 Netflix for giving these lovely young melanin rich women speak about their experiences. Please (Netflix) announce Season 3 ASAP
Agreed 💯💯👏🏽👏🏽
Great conversation!
You can't wait on Hollywood to give you roles, it's just that plain and simple. Look at Tyler perry , look at issa raye
ruddiato we have to create roles and stories and narratives
Then how do they get the role if it doesn't exist? If you're minority in Hollywood, it's very hard to get anything made. It has gotten better but Hollywood still prefers white any thing.
@@bettyg9707 true, that's why you have to hustle and get the money, learn how to produce your own content, observe what the other ppl are doing.
Good point
@@Tan87ful yuup! I think our big problem is that us as black ppl are not stepping up our content, we're not stepping up on how we film our stuff, we're not stepping up our acting skills , we're not stepping up our scripts and most importantly we're not contributing enough money to make better content
These conversations are important!
I absolutely loved this show. I hope season 3 comes out this year.
This was interesting to watch
Joan went to therapy on Girlfriends, but it still wasn't common.
Diva Chronicles Toni too
@@HarajukuBarbie504 Yep, I remember. Joan felt a way about her going to the same therapist as her. Whitley went to therapy on A Different World, not sure if that counts as it wasn't a serious scene. #relaxrelaterelease
Alexis yeah but on the same show
You've never seen a Black woman in therapy on TV before??? Someone doesn't know about Girlfriends, Martin, Fresh Prince, and Frasier lol
HTGAWM!!
@@afeleymaduro9765 A Different World! Lol
Living Single!!! Khadijah went to therapy
@@jasminehill6312 oh yeah!
Yes yes yes!!! Thank you Netflix for putting this out.
He is married to a black woman 💟
I'm excited for this segment to grow
Now these are the subjects that I like to hear women talk about..
ive never seen anything more vibrant and inspirational in my life this movie just has awoken me
In this comment section a lot of this is going over people's heads
Nae West my head hurts and I reported hella racist comments 😂🤦🏽♀️. It’s not even for them
Agreed 💯💯👏🏽👏🏽 Especially the non black folks
So hypocritical it's that funny...
So we just going ignore the mix girl high key put out the narrative of “ black girls didn’t like me” 🙄🙄 and that black ppl didn’t accept her. But in the same breath fill the spaces for black women as a mixed woman.
Oh you caught that too?!?! Lol Funny thing is I never assumed she was mixed. She looks just as black [referring to her features] as Dewanda Wisa to me only she's light skin. 🤷🏾♀️😉
Mordan325 EXACTLY!! I just thought she was light skin. I find it hard that most ppl think she was mixed especially black women. She “othered” herself but at the same time wants to be fully accepted but also wants to be different like okay sis.
Love these sisters!!! 🙌🏾
Love this
A room full of beauty is always a sight, and 0% ratchetness too just to top it off
Love this show 🕵🏾♀️💞
Look @ all these intelligent beautiful BLACK women
Much Gratitude .
Dewanda is so beautiful
i love how diverse our world is with these beautiful women and I am not even black! different shades, languages, cultures, ethnicity, food, hair, etc. Blackness is so vast and never ending source of inspirations and strength! Please gimme more!
I think a big part of this conversation that they missed is colorism in the industry
Shiiiitttttt any black complexion is A BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION!!!
FN FACTS, BRUH....
SEASON 3!!!
I see you Netflix! 👀
Loved it.
DeWanda Wise 😍😍😍
Nice
Love yal!
This was an amazing talk
159 haters. This is so wonderful.
Why?
Chyna played that role in precious really well
I enjoyed this series till i watched season 2, especially the last episode, i was like wtf then i deleted the entire thing
Allison Wick agreed! It was wacky...waited all that time and no care went into it
Yea it was all over the place.. honestly.. it could've had one season if that was the second installment
I agree unfortunately for the show. 2nd season had no direction or foundation. Suggestions: more Black women writers & directors, less Spike (sorry), better character development, less ham-fisted polemics.
@@reimourrpower9357 they also tried to cram too much in at once.. nothing was cohesive... I'm really surprised spike Lee directed that. Amd yiure right he does need more women writers
@@msatutude17 Truth. But myself as a self-descibed Spike-stan, I'm only a little surprised at how this came out. Spike Lee is one of the greatest film directors of the last 50 years, unquestionable. And the best can often let their egos and track record get ahead of their better judgement and core artistry as he did here.
He's using this show as bully pulpit to voice all his frustrations with politics and pop culture and lost much his ability to sythesize those into a good story as he did with JUNGLE FEVER, MO' BETTA BLUES, HE GOT GAME, etc. Those & most others didn't make the plot and characters suffer to make blatant unsubtle points; i.e. crack addiction in JF as opposed to British actors in Ho'wood in s2 of SHE'S. He' using the show as his twitter, ha.
Spike may have run a bit dry of subjects to write on as shown by his last films. He didn't write SHE HATE ME, BLACK KKKLANSMAN was aiight only cowritten by him, etc. He may need better partners likewhomever he worked with on 25th HOUR or falling bac and letting the original script and characters speak like with SUMMER OF SAM.
SHE'S GOTTA HAVE IT the tv show will continue to suffer a slow awkward death if he does not get fresh, younger BLACK WOMEN creatives in the writing room and director chair. He almost headed that way with the first season but he has to get back on track, please baby please.
Glad we had 2 seasons of SGHI, at least
Love that blue on Chyna Lane🔥🔥🔥
Netflix bring back this show for a season 3 & more
Saison 3 please
i need season 3 :(
Woulda been nice
I hate that I love this show. Representation matters and there is something that brings out the 5 year old JAMAICAN girl in me watching a cast of people I can personally identify with i.e. that look like me. Take a minute to think about that...
The show makes me uncomfortable and that’s a good thing. If you’re a Black Woman in America thinking about watching it. Do it. If it makes you uncomfortable. Do it, anyway. There is a story being told other than the obvious one that needs to be heard. Thank you ladies. Thank you Spike Lee. Bless ups.
is Margot related to Monique Bingham?
Any Jamaican here?
JUST remember if it wasn't for African americans the world could not give 2shits about u
Yes ma'am!
That's nonsense.. There is no such thing as African American or African Australian or whatever... We are all Africans point blank.... I can't believe this.... And y'all Americans are so proud of nothing 😂.. Your president is white and is trying his very best to ship you all to Africa... And you're up here talking about other black people around the world is nothing without "African Americans" ,that's so dumb.. And Jamaica is something without "African Americans" You didn't make us we made ourselves. We are the home of land, wood and water.. And is also the home of the fastest man alive. And the first James Bond movie was filmed IN JAMAICA. So please think before you talk.🙄..
Queen Indiana okay Indiana. Your American too
@@smilealwaysnatasha3423 I am not an American
Saison 3
Took me about 5mins to realize those are pajamas.
yasglas lol😂😂
Ilfenesh Hadera is so smart and beautiful. Very awesome in Godfather of Harlem
💪🏾💪🏾
Wishing them all much success. And Spike & Tonya Lee: please get mo' better writers and directors. This 2nd season looked great (cinematography, wardrobe, art direction, etc. superb) but the material was lacking and underdeveloped. Hire more Black women to your staff; signed a Black man fan.
Hi Netflix. you are my only and favourite streaming service. DC Swamp Thing got cancel after one season, can u save it Please :)
More like after one episode. Literally after one episode.
man, this could have been longer and more in depth than 10 min worth
This is not long enough
It’s crazy to me that people in the industry are so damn ignorant
Netflix
Is
Amazing
🤗😳
Subbed for things to watch, stayed for The Office.
Ohh N.I.A.
I really hate how we categorize mix people as a different group of black people . As a person who is Louisiana French creole, I understand that is black Americans can have different mixtures of cultures or races and still be African-American. African genes are more dominant and African-Americans ( black peoples who are decedents of the slave trade ), are not even 90-100% black to tell “mixed” black people they aren’t black . Just my sentiments 🙃
Black Goddesses
I so feel the people telling me what my ethnicity is
Exactly 👏🏽👏🏽💯💯
Being black in Beaverly Hills must be really hard.
Original Soundtrack sarcasm
Not for African americans cuz we to speical
They get special treatment
Tell that to all sucessfull black actors and actress you dumb ass. Stop the black and white thing please. Everyone is the same no matter the color of their skin.
What’s it like being black in the UK, though?
You don't get shot by the police
Black, white. It doesn't matter. The reason there is racism is because of stupid questions like this.
Everyones soooo brave...and an inspiration these days its sickening,you gotta hustle wherever you are,what ever you are, to get what you want, smh.
Exactly
@@Tan87ful mm are u being sarcastic?
kumaranan pudukottai Huh? No, I wasn’t being sarcastic. I was agreeing with you that you have to hustle and play the game to get what you want with the hand you are dealt in life. I hope the women in this video will keep hustling so that one day they can play any type of roles that they want because no actor should be put in a box,
Must be really tough!
Anybody have any cheese?
Being Black-ish in Hollywood. 😏
They only way we are getting rid of racism if we stop talking about it, making shows about race makes it fucking worse
sheperd 897 That’s not true. Not talking about the issue actually makes it worse which is why it needs to be discussed. Do you speak as a black person?
Omoze Idehenre yes i am a black person.
Patois is a dialect and it's not understandable to a person who speaks english
You mean to someone who speaks a different dialect of English. Because Jamaican patois is a English dialect.
You can pick up some words but not all therefore it's not totally mutually unintelligible.
She speaks with high level prior terms
Upload the second trailer of stranger things
The women with the all blue and the lady with the Lime green are the most humble the rest are humbling bragging 😔😑
At the very least they're reinforcing the same stereotypes that they're complaining about. I get the impression that they don't feel suited to be cast as the ghetto mom but to get the role that they feel is right for them they have to project more "whiteness".
OMG I want to see these women on TV and Netflix give them all a show each and one all together can we get rid of the house wives of Atlanta show ,those embarrassments are holding back the world ok not just black women , how can those black women do a show like that and not see how stupid they look I love seeing these women here they are an encouragement to my little niece who is 9 now .
Keeping it real the two mixed women aren't black and they will be accepted more easily get full black chicks let's keep it real
Exactly, they are so tone deaf
Virtue signals detected
Lobe how so ?
Tom London because Hollywood is fucking hard... you think a fat guy can get a lead role in a romantic comedy? You think a white guy can star in a African themed filmed? Don’t tell me your shit sandwich tastes worse than mine.
Jack Black in Shallow Hal (not "fat" enough?!). DiCaprio in Blood Diamond (literally African themed).
The human experience is a journey for each of us. I certainly did not hear their discussion once mention your "shit sandwich" Lobe. Just theirs.
Mr. Don Ivy a film that’s 18 years old and one that’s 13 years old... a lot has changed since then. All this talk about race is asinine. the races cast in movies is very similar to the American demographics. All I hear is a bunch of people complaining about how hard it is to make it in one of the most competitive businesses in the world. In the words of the late great Biggie Smalls “don’t be mad UPS is hiring”
@@kieran6417 , Lobe... women are half the population and have 18% representation on screen. A study from 2017 had blacks(for lack of a better term) at 5% representation when they are 13% in U.S. But I'm glad you finally responded.
P.S. I know all white people don't benefit from white privileges. Yet seeing something from another p.o.v. takes energy. Maybe you don't have it(?!). The energy that is.
28th to like
DWANDA IS SUPERBAD.
First
Lol, fuck Netflix
First on mah screen
Sure they are -_-
I'll stick with the original 1986 moive👍🏽
@@2ndround415 what you mean?
@@2ndround415 oh ok👀😧👍🏽
@@BatmanPops I deleted. Btw..luv your Avi. Have u watched that movie recently? I loved it soo much but am afraid if I watch it now I won't 😳
@@2ndround415 yeah it's still a classic 🙂
Damn, if this show was about 'strong white leads' then there would be a drastically different social reaction.
Go away.
You want white people to be oppressed SOOOO badly. Lol
It's so ridiculous how simple it is to understand but whit people can't stand anything that doesn't center them
I.e. a copycat show like Friends? The copy of a show featuring Black characters, Living Single...
Where Strong White Leads
Cinyx GP they’re everywhere already, idiot.
They are everywhere. All you have to do is look at the MCU, DCEU Star Wars, Star Trek, and basically any other mainstream show or blockbuster movie.
Every where.
Black people can't ave anything without white people centering themselves when they've been the default of everything since the beginning of time
Cinyx GP everywhere on tv . Let black people this 2% of space 🙄.
As they all talk about not talking about their feelings what a joke. You're a woman right, you all talk about your feelings every day of every second while claiming your strong woman.
Are we going to see Strong White Lead?
David Croft we see that every day, on everything, idiot.
Might I kindly redirect you to MCU, DC, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, and literally everything else in the media?
Ethan C exactly. This guy sounds like the people who say All Lives Matter or preach about Straight Pride. Smh
This isin't even a Strong Black Lead video dummy
Actors roundtable sounds like a show you should watch then. Instead of coming to complain go out and look, if need be CREATE, what you want. It's exhausting seeing dumbasses like you coming onto specifically targeted videos saying "wheres X groups video"
STOP THE RACISM NETFLIX. PLEASE, EVERYONE IS THE SAME, I WON'T EVEN WATCH THE LAST MOVIE YOU RELEASES CUZ I KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING. Have a nice day
Jhonatan Ramirez How is this racist? Everyone isn’t treated the same which is why these discussions are happening.
@@omozeidehenre239 Every released content is somehow talking about inequality. Honestly, since I was born I've always seen everyone the same and that's how I was raised, and it makes me mad that instead of talking about how the majority of people are not damn racist, only the negative comes out and the media doesn't help, not just netflix. The more you promote something, the more people start thinking like it and that's why I don't watch content like that.
@@jhonatanramirez6368 or the more you ignore something the longer you're ignorant.
@@jhonatanramirez6368 A lot of us experience discrimination in the worst ways. We have a right to discuss this. This is not a matter of think positively and it will go away. Because people before us discussed it openly (many died doing so) many of us (including you) have benefited. What is your majority to someone's form of the majority? Also, who said everyone is racist? Whiteness has mainly been promoted as a result, people tend to focus on whiteness. So, I guess in this regard you are correct. This is an issue. Which is why we are talking about the issues of race in America and particularly in the entertainment sector. Being "nice" and not "talking" about race and white supremacy in this country and around the world isn't going to make things go away.
I'm waiting more for strong white lead
Literally tune in on any channel and you'll most likely see a white lead. Not everything needs to pander to white people jeez.
@@IlikepurpleXP what about strong yellow lead?
@@Loczex23 I agree that there very much needs to be more asian representation. Though I highly doubt you actually care about that since your reply just sounded like a weak rebuttal.
@@IlikepurpleXP ok ok but what about strong red lead?
Kuba Voyaga every single place you go you will find that.
So being rich and famous is hard?! Hahahaaa!!!!!! How about APPRECIATE what you have....instead of complain and DIVIDE!!!!!!!! Always divide and differences ....
r/woosh
You clearly don’t understand what’s going on and shouldn’t even comment. You don’t get to have an opinion on what WE go through.
@@atribecalledness5201 go through? Go through been rich? Fuck me all you go on about how it's racist ... but yet you're the only one that is taking about colour like what the fuck are you on about. Delusional little racist bubble.
@@atribecalledness5201 Hmmmhmmmm.....go on...ZzzzzzZZZzzzzzZZZZzzzzZZZ....Divide...blah blah divide blh blah rich but oppressed....Yaaaa, I knowwwwwwwwwwwwwww, Ive heard it alllllllllllllll....you want "go through" just be broke, any color, lol!!!!! Fuck these broads, and any RICH asshole that complains from their million dollar houses, with the lights ALWAYS ON, FULLY stocked cabinets, etc etc etc,,,,the only one making it racist is the assholes that buy into this shit and ALLOW themselves to be divided by it. ;)
@@naewest502 r/original
Being black in Hollywood. .. if you don't get your way shout racism and get what you want
Well if you are only given roles where you play a slave, a maid, a criminal, or the best friend/side kick to the white main character, then that’s a problem. Films like Black Panther and Overlord are relatively new so things are slowly getting better. I remember Men in Black and Shaft being top favorites back in the day among my family and black friends so more of those types of films are needed in 2019. They didn’t need to do reboots of those films. They need to create more stories of science fiction and fantasy and they can have people of color as the leads. White actors don’t have to worry about this. All you have to do is look at the popular blockbuster film franchises like the MCU, DCEU, and Star Wars and see the main roles that white actors play. Hollywood can do whatever they want but they shouldn’t complain if not enough people are going to see the films they put out. Idk exactly who they are referring to when they say that but I bet that black people and just people of color in general.
Racist white troll.
Getting real sick of all this black pandering from Netflix lately
Unsubscribe then.
You can literally turn everywhere else and see white pandering then. Learn to accept that not everything in media will cater directly to you just like black people have been forced to accept this for all this time.
So what.
The racists really jump out when threatened by white people not being the center of attention
I love how you call it black pandering, instead of people having an opportunity to openly talk about their experiences. I’ve found that those who are upset by this kind of dialogue, even though it isn’t offensive in anyway, have an issue with black people in general.
