@JustEggsBro @Darron801 This is a (hilarious) joke. Not one insult about his condition. It made light of a painful situation and showed him and Black ppl love in the process. If you’re not familiar with the nuances of Black comedy and Black expression, don’t speak on it.

@Darron801 Nobody said that. Everybody acknowledged the disability. The lack of a public apology is the issue.

@Lizzurr No n-word? Was it cut? He’s been telling that same story a long time. If he were truly sincere he would’ve apologized. If a leg tic causes you to accidentally kick a child, a decent human would apologize. John Davidson is so racist he refused to do the minimum which is apologize.

Salute to the NAACP Image Awards for respectfully hosting Michael B Jordan, Delroy Lindo, Ryan Coogler & Regina Hall while condemning BBC & BAFTA & the racist UK, especially Scotland. Now, the BBC & BAFTA and John Davidson will be known as anti-Black racists & white supremacists.

America The Ghetto
America The Ghetto@Lizzurr·
When John Davidson was 16 years old he talked about killing himself because he felt humiliated by his disability and frustrated by the harm it caused. To have the NAACP Awards openly mocking him for his disability is evil, mean spirited, calloused and ableist.
America The Ghetto@Lizzurr

In the 1988, documentary, John’s Not Mad, John Davidson at 16 years old talked about how he wanted to kill himself due to the damage Tourette’s has caused. The BBC & BAFTA know how destructive this condition has been for him socially and should’ve protected everyone involved.

So you’re telling me the paint HAD to be black in order for the context of this scene to work? No other color? Yeah, ok.
Neil Andrews@crazyhorsefc

@EchoDoesRadio Two lads mucking about with paint is now racist, eh? If you'd watched the full scene, which you clearly haven't, you'd have a better idea of what was going on it.

@J82Anderson @Imani_Barbarin The issues isn’t Tourette’s. The issue is the words. You and others seem incapable of parceling that out. Having a disability doesn’t excuse harmful behavior.

No, this is an ignorant take. Apologising for harm caused is NOT apologising for a disability. Oh my goodness. Tourettes does not divest him of his knowledge that the N-word is racist. He knows that. Stop acting like Tourettes strips him of an ability to apologise when harm is caused or that does who bear the brunt of the harm should not expect an apology for the harm. No one in their right mind expects him to apologise for his disability nor should he.

This has to be the Whitest Non-Apology from John Davidson. It's exactly how racist white people don't take responsibility. Can we talk about it or is that ableist? He shouldn't be apologising for his disability so why is 'sorry' the hardest thing to say for impact of his words? Is that the Tourettes syndrome too? #Bafta
