Stacey Dash is doubling and tripling down on her comments calling for the elimination of Black History Month and the BET Network.
Now she’s saying she wants an apology from her critics . And why is that, you ask? Because in a blog post entitled, “Twitter Haters, When Do I Get My Apology for Agreeing with Morgan Freeman about #BlackHistoryMonth?,” Dash claims the award winning actor has expressed similar views.
“When I spoke out on Fox News and on my blog about the need to get rid of BET and Black History Month, all the same usual Twitter haters came out of the woodwork to troll me and say all sorts of disgusting things about me,” Dash, 49, wrote. “Well, if you’re going to call me ignorant, stupid, and an Uncle Tom, you need to be intellectually honest and also call out Morgan Freeman.”
“What’s that you say? You didn’t realize that Morgan Freeman agrees with me that having a Black History Month is actually racist and a part of the problem in healing race relations in America?”
In the post, Dash included a video clip from 60 Minutes of Freeman’s comments regarding Black History Month. (Note: This video was aired in 2006. Morgan Freeman has not commented on the recent Oscar boycott.)
