The actress wrote a new post on her blog titled “Twitter Haters, When Do I Get My Apology For Agreeing With Morgan Freeman About #BlackHistoryMonth” referring to Freeman’s statement about not wanting a Black History Month because black history is American history. This comes after another blog post called “How BET Lies To Black People.” Well, she really knows how to write a headline, huh?

Stirring the pot is Gabrielle Union who told the following to the Associated Press:”If you don’t see yourself reflected in mainstream awards, you tend to create your own.Until there is no longer a need for that, I celebrate the ALMAs, the same way I celebrate the Country Music Awards, and the same way I celebrate the BET Awards and the Image Awards, which we’ll all be at in a couple of weeks. The more that we focus on inclusion and a true representation of this country, I think that crazy lady will have less to say.”

Well. Now we know how she feels about that.
