Idris Elba showed that after he was criticized for posting a photo of himself on Juneteenth.
It appears that Elba was acknowledging some of the things that were appropriated from Black people throughout history while at the same time making a statement about Blacks being killed by people from other communities.
The overall response was that he shouldn’t be OK with anything being pillaged from Black people, whether it’s music, fashion choices, or life itself.
“Not Idris Elba choosing Juneteenth to be the day he disappoints us, these celebs know no bounds,” someone tweeted after seeing the shirt.
After becoming aware of the backlash, Elba decided to take a lighthearted approach in his response.
