Terry Crews: “Don’t Let Black Lives Matter Become Black Lives Better”

Terry Crews is really out here creating issues that just don’t exist. As the majority of us fight for equality, justice, and basic human rights, Crews is concerned that Black folks may be asking for far too much.

We’re not sure how we got here, but it’s been heading in this direction for a while. Just a few weeks ago, Terry tried to convince folks that “Black supremacy” was a real thing and that we should all pump our brakes before we go begin to oppress the oppressors. Yes, instead of worrying about the fight against police brutality, he wants to make sure we remember to center whiteness and make their feelings our main focus.

And now, here we are — the “White Chicks” actor has once again opened his mouth with some ridiculous concern and folks are baffled.

If you are a child of God, you are my brother and sister. I have family of every race, creed and ideology.

We must ensure #blacklivesmatter doesn’t morph into #blacklivesbetter

Like, what? Terry really thinks he’s dropping some gems and really he’s out here tap dancing and bending over backwards to appease his white fans (and family). We get it, your wife is bi-racial and you have white people at your family reunions, but what your missing is that no one is asking for BETTER treatment, we would just like EQUAL treatment. And, if you can’t get on board with that, than that’s the real problem.

Of course, folks on Twitter had some words for Crews, as well…

Black people: We’re starving!

Terry Crews: But what about those who have more than enough food? We must ensure their bellies remain full!

Say what you will about @terrycrews but you have to admire his dedication to centering whiteness.

Ok… Maybe you don’t HAVE TO. https://t.co/5goyvuDreH

Terry Crews used Black people for suppprt after he alleged a white man assaulted him. Now we’re the villains for asking to be supported against racism. Malcolm X never lied about these type of folks.

All we asking for is equal, humane and dignified treatment and Terry Crews is breaking his ankles tap dancing trying to appease white people. Nobody is asking for Black Supremacy.

Terry Crews is really acting like black people are asking to be treated better than others. We're asking for EQUALITY at a bare minimum. I know he got some strong calf muscles because the tap dancing is nonstop.

Did terry crews take a class on how best to gain a racist following? All of his tweets are either him insulting other black people or hoping they fail in some way. Decided to block him instead of quoting his tweet. Tired of seeing his crazy. Done.
