Beyonce Defended After Haters Take Issue With White Butler in 'Black Is King' Movie
Beyonce is being furiously defended by her fans on social media after haters took issue with a [...]
All I have to say is that if it was a predominatly white movie and they used a black person as the butler, the white community would have accepted it because, in their eyes, black people should be handmaidens, servants, cleaners, butlers and any type of subservient job.

prevnextQueen Bey always takes risks & recieves backlash to reveal elements of society, which ultimately starts conversations like this one. Beyoncé, we support you, we're proud of you.
Beyoncé will go down in history not only for her music but for the causes that she stood for.

Aren't butlers white to begin with??? I mean Alfred & any other movie with butlers would agree that it's a white man

prevnextThe butler just happens to be white. Just like their excuse when the roles are reversed. I’m very sure Beyoncé didn’t deliberately do this shes not that sort of person butlers just tend to be old white men in popular movies/tropes so I don’t see an issue... leave Beyoncé alone!

All these white men portrayed butlers who served white people. But because it’s a white man serving black women, it’s a problem??? pic.twitter.com/uuxQ7x1Tuh
