Tyler Perry's speech was such a heartfelt and needed speech during these times of division. What a great person and inspiration for us all to help out our fellow man and woman.
The was by far the best speech of the Oscars. Meet in the middle. Enough division. Who’d have thought the middle would become the new radical? Very happy to meet you in the middle Tyler Perry.
But isn’t it what your average joe/Julie does. The media are framing most of us as the problem when it’s the few who are creating it. And you notice they keep pointing out new non problems as problems with out any solution just you’re wrong because you’re a man, you you’re white, you your talking, you shut up. It’s just today’s money maker we’re all talking about it, and others get paid big bucks they move on move house we’re left with the crap
Surely no Oscar acceptance speech tonight will be more meaningful or needed in the U.S. than Tyler Perry's. Who can pledge to heal America, beginning by eliminating the word "hate" in our vocabularies, then meeting for dialogue, and thus accept Perry's Humanitarian Award with him, as he invited us?
Now that is what a Humanitarian looks like and sounds like. Congratulations to Mr. Tyler Perry so well deserved. Now let’s all meet him in the middle. 🙏🏼🙏🏼👏👏👏🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Notice how when he talks bout cops no clapping they Don t care bout police because they are rich in live in 100 million dollar gated homes and got security just like lebron james much respect to Tyler
Well congratulations to Tyler Perry because both House of pain and assisted living on BET pulled in 2 million viewers this week and in the top 20 as the most watched shows on cable. I'm so happy for Tyler Perry success
That was absolutely beautiful! Now if that message can get out to those who propagate hatred based on differences, so much of what is happening in the world today would be the beginning of the end.
You are in your calling..let nothing turn you around ..its so many want too be you ..speak freely..the world has a heart because of you.....again thank you...
When you become aware of the hate you carry then you are on the right path to finding the middle. I refuse to judge or hate. #meetinthemiddle What a humble, caring role model.
I've known about Tyler Perry for a long time and watched some of his comedy through the years but as a white man, never really listened to him. His Emory commencement speech just came up on my youtube and I was blown away by it and now searching for his other speeches I found this. I'm blown away by him, he is a national treasure, an amazing man, and a wonderful human being. We are truly blessed, as he is one of the greatest speakers and humans to have ever lived and he is alive and well in our world today.
Now that ladies and gentlemen is what you call a human being we all are human beings when we start to all realize that, this nation will come together like it should
When I was watching Oscars yesterday, I almost fell asleep of some people’s speech, but when I heard his speech, I felt like he’s one of the nicest person in the world. One of the most legendary speech of all time!!!!!!!
"Refuse to hate" Absolutely moving. I refuse to believe the world is broken, i choose to believe more people will stand up and advocate "refuse to hate".
You are a class act Tyler. This is what needs to come out of EVERY celebrities' mouths. Te to start using your influence for good instead of standing on your high horse.
Tyler Perry might as well be Frodo Baggins because he just cast the one ring into the fires of Mount Doom. Everyone needs to share this because so many have been mislead.
A speech so needed in this country. It is such a shame that this speech is not coming from our leaders. But rather an actor. An actor who is not responsible for bringing us together. But yet these words could do just that. Huge message of appreciation to Mr. Perry. I hope we see more of you soon. To others out there including myself.... we could all learn from this speech. And the media? And politicians..? just listen to this. Act on it.
Tyler Perry, I will meet you in the middle. God is right there with us. I refuse to hate. God Bless you Sir. You sure you're not a Preacher. My goodness if that's not a Preached word. I felt that in my belly!
Well congrats to Tyler Perry because both House of Payne assisted living in The Oval are the most watched shows on cable pulling in 2 million views from each of them. All three are the trending topic of shows in the top 20 in the U.S. he is just winning all around and is winning audiences over love it with his shows and his words of wisdom.
I respect and admire this man so very much. I just HOPE AND PRAY his enormous platform does not get used in anyway to use the hateful word RACISM as his friends Opray Winfrey Gayle King and the African American lady on The Talk do.
I'm a Japanese woman, while travelling in Europe , people did contempt me , for Example they call me Chinese, yellow monkey, and laughed at me for the reason of Asian , but I'll forgive them because I don't want to hate anybody.
Much respect to Tyler! No one is prefect in this world and if we were then we wouldn't need cop. I refuse to hate anyone as well because of the color of their skin. Thank you Tyler Perry!!
I too live in Louisiana and been sent home from school cuz of bomb threats..I was young child and felt the hate! I’ll never forget my friend, Leonard he was of color, I never saw that, but others notice our friendship and treated me very poorly. That was in the 70s, I never forgot my friend, he was the best artist, he drew pictures for me. I’m white and 58, never forgot his kindness to me....I’m with you dear sir, my parents never us to taught hate, we need to pay it forward.....the Love of Jesus 🙏🏻
Great speech! Amazing! IV always loved TP. Buuuut I'm not going to act like lady at the end knees didn't give out. Lol she was like ouch! Lmao. I be having that saaame problem!
