Static always had the heart of so many young black boys because he looked like them & they could see themselves in him. Here are my top picks for this role depending on how old he’ll be in the movie. Feel free to add yours.https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👌🏾" title="Ok hand (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Ok hand (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👌🏾" title="Ok hand (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Ok hand (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)"> https://twitter.com/ign/status/1297288953683378178">https://twitter.com/ign/statu...
It has been brought to my attention by some black men that I should have included some dark skinned actors. Come on, fellas. Let’s not be divisive and colorist.

Some of the reactions to my innocent tweet are quite alarming. Especially coming from black men. Are you saying that these actors aren’t black enough? There’s not one way to look black. Race is a social construct. Let’s not do eugenics-style blood quantum. We’re all blackhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏾" title="Erhobene Faust (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏿" title="Erhobene Faust (dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (dunkler Hautton)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏽" title="Erhobene Faust (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (mittlerer Hautton)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏻" title="Erhobene Faust (heller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (heller Hautton)">
