MO'NIQUE I'M SUING NETFLIX FOR DISCRIMINATION

Image result for monique

 3:19 PM PT -- Netflix tells TMZ, "We care deeply about inclusion, equity, and diversity and take any accusations of discrimination very seriously. We believe our opening offer to Mo'Nique was fair -- which is why we will be fighting this lawsuit.”
Additionally, a source with direct knowledge tells us the executive Mo'Nique claims used the n-word during a meeting was fired over the incident.
Mo'Nique is finally taking her accusations against Netflix for discrimination to a court of law ... she's filed a lawsuit.
In the suit, the Oscar-winning actress and comedian accuses Netflix of race-based discrimination for how it negotiated a comedy special with her. She says Netflix offered Amy Schumer $11 million for an hour-long stand-up special (she eventually got $13 mil), but only offered Mo'Nique $500,000 for her stand-up special.
Mo'Nique never accepted their offer, and went on a public campaign ... which included coming on "TMZ Live" and calling for a boycott against the company.
According to the suit, she claims Netflix has a severe lack of diversity, which contributes to their discriminatory practices. Specifically, she claims one Netflix exec. -- the Chief Communications Officer -- used the n-word in a meeting with 60 people in 2018. Mo'Nique was not present for that meeting.
She also claims Netflix allowed Kevin Spacey to use the n-word while on the set of "House of Cards" without any consequence. In the suit, she alleges Spacey complained to his personal security guards, "I don't want [n-words] on my set anymore." She's not suing Spacey.
Mo'Nique also used a major pay gap on the Netflix hit, "The Crown," to illustrate alleged discrimination. She says the actress who plays Queen Elizabeth II was paid $14k per episode less than the actor who played Prince Philip -- and it only righted the wrong after there was a public outcry about it.
She's suing Netflix for unspecified damages, and for an injunction forcing the company to change its discriminatory policies.
We've reached out to Netflix and Kevin Spacey for comment.

"Black" People In America; You Must Get Out Of The Racial Conundrum!

Image
I have gravelled over whether or not to write this blog, because I know many of my own people — “Black” people — may scoff at my thoughts. My concern is that they might assume I believe Black people are divinely cursed. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, I believe that Black people are the people of God — His chosen. That is power! Not power given by men, but power established by the will of GOD HIMSELF. Yet this power is only fully realized when we walk in the perfect will of GOD. Until we return to HIM fully, we will continue to be hoodwinked, bamboozled, and run amok. But the truth of who we are remains unchanged: GOD’s covenant still stands.   The Covenant People: Rediscovering Our Identity and Power in God Part 1 – The Proof of Who We Are This is not a claim based on emotion or pride. It is written in the Scriptures. Genesis 22:18 – “And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.” GOD made a covenant with A...

America Should Be Asshamed!

Image
America Has Been Socially Engineered! Let's get it straight! Let's stay focused, America! If you follow me you know that I have always come from the perspective that both parties are full of sh*t! The loss of life should not be a race, religious, or political tinderbox! It should be an American thing one of compassion, empathy, understanding, and sorrow! Especially in this polarizing political climate! The oligarchs on both sides are anarchist, they are racists, atheist, and, demonic! They believe out of total chaos comes perfect order. (Nietzsche a ancient atheist philosopher) They are atheist and all they want is global domination! In order to have it they must get rid of the faith, family and our GOD given constitutional freedoms! They know that if America goes; there goes the world! This American experiment is divinely inspired not perfect but the best among nations! Therefore, contrary to popular opinion only GOD gives true freedom for every man to try his own soul, and on...

It’s Not Partisan Bickering — It’s Treason and Betrayal

Image
T he political establishment — from pundits and media to Congress itself — has long dismissed the escalating actions of both Democrats and Republicans as mere partisan bickering. But let’s be honest: what we’re witnessing goes far beyond petty disagreements. It’s betrayal. It’s corruption. And in some cases, it borders on treason. Hell,  Let’s stop calling it “bipartisan bickering.” What we’re witnessing is not politics as usual — it’s treason. trea·son /ˈtrēzən/ noun the crime of  betraying  one's country, especially by attempting to kill the  sovereign  or  overthrow  the government.  When elected officials sell out the interests of the American people, violate the Constitution, abuse power, and protect each other from justice, that’s not democracy — that’s betrayal. Politicians should be held to higher standards than the people they serve, not lower. Yet, when the Clintons managed to sidestep a litany of serious allegations, a dangerous prece...
