Terry Crews clarified his “Black supremacy” tweet addressing racism in America in the wake of George Floyd’s death.
The Brooklyn Nine-Nine star and America’s Got Talent host appeared on Monday’s Late Night With Seth Meyers and was given a chance to address the backlash over his weekend Twitter post addressing racism in America in the wake of George Floyd’s death.
He continued: “What I was trying to say is: I, as a member of the black community, there have been so-called gatekeepers who decide who’s black and who’s not. In this effort to really push equality and to end white supremacy and systemic racism, there are certain black people who have determined that what I’m doing has no bearing. I have been rendered moot because I’m ‘successful.’ My point is just the fact that we need all of us.

We are bigger than that. And that is the point I was trying to make, but people held on to the ‘black supremacy’ concept and, again, it’s Twitter and taken out of context, anybody can roll with anything.”
Crews said he thinks the current events will eventually play out onscreen on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, the police procedural comedy he has starred in since 2013.
