Civil rights icon Reverend Al Sharpton is pulling through in the best way. The respected high-profile activist has come forward to show support for comedian Mo’Nique‘s publicized Netflix boycott over gender bias.
Sharpton went to Instagram this week and told his 79,200 followers to stay woke and acknowledge Mo’s real issues.
This week, social media exploded with memes poking fun at Mo’s Netflix war.

This week, Hollywood superstar Jada Pinkett Smith came to Mo’s defense amid boycott backlash.
You don’t have to like Mo’Nique’s approach. You don’t have to agree with her boycott but don’t allow all of that to make you blind to the fact that non-white women and impoverished white women are underpaid, underrepresented and undervalued EVERYWHERE by EVERYONE.

As a community, we should be supporting the light she is shining on this truth.
