Erika Alexander On New Film 'American Fiction', Black Men Supporting Black Women, Neo Noir + More 

I was just thinking the same thing. I bet if Katt Williams was on there it would have over 1 mil views by now.

Right! Should have WAY more views!

They will if we share.

@@altovisemiller9900 Katt made a lot of good points as well. But he is not the only person that has gotten over 1 million views.

@@filmadcamp1512there were not enough good points in there to mention ahead of the drama and hyperbole.

There is much value in being multi-lingual. Americans are near the top, in people living in developed countries, who don't speak multiple languages. That wouldn't be such a problem, if we were self sufficient as a group, but we are not that. We don't have enough schools to educate ourselves, nor can we independently provide the necessities of life for ourselves. The words Queen and King are from the oppressor's language, African people had words for their leadership, yet even Afrocentric/Pan-Africanist Black people use these terms. Even the word African, is not our word, but the world accepts it, even Africans. But Africans know who they are in their own words, as well. Their focus is more narrow than the entire continent. Their ethnicity is there primary focus. The word Africa is less a problem than is the use of the terms KING and Queen. The average Black person who hear those terms think of someone like Elizabeth of England and Ferdinand of Spain. What do they mean for people of Africa and the Black African Diaspora, if not colonization and worst? Black people have not employed critical thinking nearly enough, in our struggles. It is far more fundamental and thus valuable to our struggle than is Critical Race Theory. Not all of us need to understand CRT, but all of us need to be able to apply critical thinking in all we do.

Basically

Wow, if you think america is this “systematic racist opressed” country then leave.

Yet she was married to a WM Gtfoh

Thank-you, very truthfully and wisely said.@@siriuslyspeaking9720

I honestly almost shed a tear, very powerful.

All this "woke" pro-black talk and she's married to a white man.

My bag! I approve of your comment! Fingers moving to quickly without seeing!

Yup! She’s totally focused and super clear about her views.

Well said she makes me proud to be a black woman 👩🏾 👏🏾 🙌🏾 ❤️ 🖤

💯

I just saw the movie this morning. Up late ,so I nodded out and missed the love scene lol ! Overall, I am happy she cleared up some underlying issues so eloquently. She fit the role quite well. Gonna see it again!

I couldn't agree more.

I agree but *should

Definitely!!! They could have done a spin-off show focusing on her!

Absolutely agree such an amazing interview

Erika Alexander is brilliant! You guys need to bring her on your program more often. She's a great actress.

I love your channel! ❤

Love your Channel, @ReelBlack keep up the good work ❣️🥰🤗💞

RESPECTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT RB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Mike, *it* sure is! I *luv* #Erika! And *you* too! I miss our mornings w/music with *You!* Your channel is a necessary Channel! Gratitude! 💜💟💜

​@@CrownedxKay I ❤your channel

🔥🔥🔥🔥

All this "woke" pro-black talk and she's married to a white man.

YES!!!!❤

DJ Evy and Charlemagne shined the and Erica reflected back 10X. I LOVRD this session. Thank you

Exactly. I go to Michelin star restaurants and the majority of the time, the music being played overhead is exclusively R&B. We need to recognize our influence and capitalize on it and stop talking about being sellouts. Someone is selling it and making money from it, and if we are the creators, then it should be us ho are the main beneficiaries. Our music, our slang, our street style, our art, our idealism. We are influential and influence is power if it is harnessed correctly.

The sad thing is, all that revenue, The lage part of the cake still goes to the white power structre smh

All this "woke" pro-black talk and she's married to a white man.

@H20Sniperthere’s always one like you….ready to comment & tear down someone’s (a black woman’s) character.

All this "woke" pro-black talk and she's married to a white man.

Her husband whyytee

It was hearing part of Erika Alexander’s interview 5years ago on the radio that brought me down the rabbit hole of Breakfast Club interviews on RU-vid. Love to hear her speak!

That sounds like fiction

what force?

They already hating

☝Get rid of RELIGION (religion itself divides ALL PEOPLE), get rid of CAPITALISM, 4get COLONIAL white-washing (teaching African American, Hattians, & other Caribbean's that they AREN'T AFRICAN) 🤔 and then , MAYBE THERE;s A CHANCE

They would be so scared if we all came together but remember the love to divide and conquer....they are afraid of what they done to us because we would do it to them...if only...

Faccccctssss

All this "woke" pro-black talk and she's married to a white man.

@Lakers In 5 What it do my G?! 🗣👋🏻

​@@jayskicksnfits9372stuck inside, too icy out to make a move. 🙏 for 🌞

Just said this in my head 😅

Innocent guilty🎶🎶🎶

She is too militant and pro black for white Hollywood. Thus interview explain why we haven't seen her in more mainstream movies and TV show. Her comments will make white people nervous and uncomfortable.

Yo better believe it ❤

All this "woke" pro-black talk and she's married to a white man.

I saw it this past weekend. Didn't live the ending but I agree with every point you just made

I saw American Fiction 2 Fridays ago. It was well written, satirically funny and a very good thinking movie. Definitely will see it a 2nd time. Jeffrey Wright has moved from Supporting Actor to Leading Man and it's well earned. 👏🏽👏🏽

LOL to the menopause comment, 😅 in solidarity Sis! ❤️💚🖤🙏🏾

^^^ This comment right here! 😅

@26:35

@12:35

Yes, she's very knowledgeable!!

She's so beautiful n the last of a real black women

@bigmattic65 lmao oh you one of those huh? All ima say is her character in Living Single, Max , the one she said that white folks claimed was "too strong"....she may not shake her ass but she loved sleeping with men and treating them like conquest. Something I'm sure you'd say about a modern women. So I doubt you really know what she represents frfr

I still watch Living Single as well…. Erica Alexander is a phenomenal, intelligent and talented woman! I’m definitely a fan.

@@thepyt1 You might want to reread my comment.

No I read it correctly. The panda was meant for charlamagne

@@TheCloveart i actually agreed with you

@@thepyt1 My bad, thanks.
