Academy Award-winning actor Morgan Freeman is one of the most prominent liberals in Hollywood.
But the woke mob is not going to be happy with Freeman after they heard what he had to say.
And Morgan Freeman had one surprising word he called Black History Month.
Freeman became a household name in America by starring in Hollywood hits like “Driving Miss Daisy,” “The Shawshank Redemption,” “Seven,” “Deep Impact,” “Bruce Almighty,” and the “Dark Knight” Batman film trilogy.
Over the course of his career Freeman’s always been an outspoken liberal.
In a 2012 interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan, Freeman smeared the Tea Party as a racist movement falsely claiming the Tea Party’s “stated policy, publicly stated, is to do whatever it takes to see to it that Obama only serves one term. What… underlines that? Screw the country. We’re going to do whatever we do to get this black man…outta here.”
In 2017 Freeman appeared in a video for the Committee to Investigate Russia spreading the hoax that Russia helped Donald Trump win the 2016 election.
Freeman told Trump that “during this past election, we came under attack by the Russian government” and that America was now at war with Russia.
But Freeman also speaks out against the left’s desire to divide America by forcing the nation to view every issue through the prism of race.
In an interview with London’s Sunday Times, Freeman blasted the concept of Black History Month as an “insult.”
“Two things I can say publicly that I do not like,” Freeman began. “Black History Month is an insult,” he continued, before adding that “you’re going to relegate my history to a month?”
Freeman also ripped the left for their woke language saying the term “African American” is also insulting.
“Also, ‘African American’ is an insult,” Freeman added. “I don’t subscribe to that title.” Freeman continued explaining that “black people have had different titles all the way back to the N-word and I do not know how these things get such a grip, but everyone uses ‘African American.’”
“What does it really mean?” Freeman exclaimed. Freeman stated that “most black people in this part of the world are mongrels, and you say Africa as if it’s a country when it’s a continent, like Europe.”
This was not the first time Freeman spoke out against the left using race to divide America.
In a 2005 interview with “60 Minutes” Freeman declared, “I don’t want a Black History Month.”
Freeman told interviewer Mike Wallace that he was done with seeing everyone purely on the basis of skin color.
“I am going to stop calling you a white man and I’m going to ask you to stop calling me a black man,” Freeman added.
This dumbfounded Wallace who, like all media liberals, thinks the only way to eradicate the scourge of racism from America is to talk about it constantly and accuse everyone and every institution of racism.
“How are we going to get rid of racism?” Wallace wondered.
“Stop talking about it,” Freeman shot back.
