The star of the Disney+ show “Acolyte” released a song calling critics propagandists and racists, claiming that he was oppressed and still feels the effects of slavery.
Amandla Stenberg, who has been acting since at least the age of 13, adamantly rejects the idea of joining the discourse over this viral music video.
“Happy June 19th,” she wrote on her Instagram page, accompanying the video. “And to all those who crush me with their unbearable racism. It took me 72 hours on my laptop to make this song and video so you guys have 72 hours to respond. I expect choreography too!!” she said. Added.
The song, supposedly titled “Discourse,” begins with a reference to a recently recirculated video of Stenberg’s 2018 interview with the host. Trevor NoahA widely shared video of Stenberg saying her goal for a recent performance was to “make white people cry.”
“I ran from city to city talking about the police killing of a black boy. My people cried in theaters being liberated, and white people cried that they could see us as human beings,” Stenberg says in the song.
“I’m tired of suppressing my anger. I’ve taken their drivel with distinction for 400 years, just like my ancestors were caged.”
After a chorus of “We’re so bored, stop interfering with your discourse,” Stenberg complained about the misuse of the word “woke.”
“They are distorting, falsifying and appropriating wokeness. Last I remember, wokeness is something we created, speak truth to power and watch out you stupid racists.”
“Now they use it to describe anything that they feel is intimidating. It was a word for people to recognize prejudice and the power of community, not just clickbait,” she continued.
Stenberg’s Star Wars show has been heavily criticized as one of the most extreme and unwatchable in the franchise’s history, not only redefining the series’ canon but also making it an increasingly overtly activist show.
The show intentionally casts more diverse female characters, including lesbian witches, nonsense characters, and additional Gay love interests For the protagonist.
The final verse of Stenberg’s progressive rap song speaks to the repressed feelings she has as a result of slavery.
“I’m tired of suppressing my anger. I’ve taken their drivel with distinction for 400 years, just like my ancestors were caged.”
“If we don’t face our pain, it will manifest as addiction, disease and hatred. I have seen the infection that oppression can cause. I don’t want to be the next person to die prematurely,” she concluded.
The former child actor is the perfect embodiment of progressivism, posing as someone from a position of supreme privilege yet faking oppression in order to gain social respectability.
Fans on Stenberg’s Instagram page were somewhat more forgiving, praising her lyrics and courage.
“Wow Amandla. I absolutely love this character,” a fan wrote.
However, it seems viewers weren’t so kind to the various versions of X, leading the actress to limit who could view her account.
One viewer said her father White.
“She’s literally a billionaire. How repressed,” said another viewer. I have written.
“Acolyte” received a shockingly low fan rating of 14%. Rotten TomatoesIs it possible that Stenberg is off the mark as to why audiences responded badly to her?
