Jamie Foxx is outrageous on Fast and Furious actor Tyrese Gibson on his controversial tweet on racism.
Gibson had taken it to Twitter to share his two cents on the ongoing mayhem because of racial discrimination in the US.
His perspective, however, has left his fans disturbed as he shared several pictures calling it ‘a flip side’. The pictures show a Black man as the owner of white slaves, a couple of white women giving manicure services to Asian ladies, and a White woman breastfeeding a Black child while the Black mother stands aside freely.
The post had hurt a lot of fans and they responded immediately asking him what his motives are for sharing such a picture in the peak time of #BlackLivesMatter movement. One fan asked him if he is backing up #AllLivesMatter against #BlackLives Matter but the actor chose to remain silent.
Instead of apologizing to his hurtful remarks, Gibson further shared another Tweet pressing his point. It was a montage of Black actors and celebrities including Morgan Freeman showing his fans the flip side of the coin of racism.

He asked the Fast and Furious legend if he is aware of what the community is going through right now and what the families of victims of racism are feeling. Foxx made a point in the perspective of George Floyd who was brutally murdered by a White police officer for crimes that are still unknown.
Tyrese Gibson recorded a long video in response to people criticizing his Tweet but he deleted the response and all the previous Tweets. The fans, however, are not happy with this as they want an apology from the actor instead of deleting his Tweets.
