Brooklyn Nine-Nine star and America’s Got Talent host Terry Crews is facing backlash online after a recent tweet commenting on the Black Lives Matter movement and suggesting that black lives should not be exalted over all other lives.
In addition to Brooklyn Nine-Nine and America’s Got Talent, Crews’ credits includes TV’s Everyone Hates Chris and the films The Expendables, Idiocracy and White Chicks.
“I can’t speak for sexism because I’m not a woman, but I can speak on any racism comments,” Crews said at the time.
This marks the second time in 2020 that Crews has faced criticism concerning the issue of race.
