Watch the full speech to see why Samuel L. Jackson called it worthy of one of the great civil rights speeches of the 1960s.

^ smh. there will always be people who try to diminish the message or belittle it to fit their narrow worldview. did you even listen to what he said? or you just saw a person of colour on a stage at an award show celebrating black talent and your ears interpreted that as the bullshit you wanted to hear. because rather than actually listen, you wanna twist the message to something simple enough for you to understand. rather than see outside the blinds, you wanna stay in the dark.
If the president of the fucking United States of America is black than I can safely say that we no longer deal with oppression
