'I betrayed myself, and my people, because I was in a movie that wasn't ready to [tell the whole truth].'
"Not a lot of narratives are also invested in our humanity," Davis went on to say."They're invested in the idea of what it means to be Black, but…it's catering to the white audience. The white audience at the most can sit and get an academic lesson into how we are. Then they leave the movie theater and they talk about what it meant. They're not moved by who we were.
And though the actress was also quick to add that she has nothing but"love" for the cast and director-writer Tate Taylor, she also touched on the very important topic of how the movie was reflective of Hollywood's complacency when it came to skirting around the truth — something that can be attributed tobeing"created in the filter and the cesspool of systemic racism," much like many other films.Davis said.
