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.

#the color purple #the color purple (2023)#taraji p. henson #danielle brookes #it makes no sense how there was a literal strike in demands that actors & co are treated fairly and this happens #and it's very telling how quick people are to disregard the needs of these black women and call them dramatic #but you know fully well that if they were any other production things would have been different #like imagine not even feeding your workers and having them have to beg for it. that is wild #and how taraji had to be the one to speak up for herself and her coworkers #how it wasn't until oprah came into the picture that they were treated better #all of these examples of unjust treatment being given and yet you still have people denying it #it's giving....a vibe and if you know you know #(racism)
