Octavia's and Jessica's characters had the sweetest story in The Help.

@mgeek1 3 жыл бұрын

The irony of the story is, OCTAVIA SPENCER HAS AN OSCAR and Chastain doesn't. So, let that be a lesson that an Academy Award doesn't mean that you can instantly command more money.

I don't know how this video only has 13.000 views. It's just an inspiration, a powerful speech. Octavia it's such as amazing woman, and Jessica... I have no words for her. This is what white privilege means: ask to better payment - not just for her, but for her black sister - and be heard. Keep fighting girls! I love what you're doing. All the best from your brazilian fans.

Thank god for Jessica. She sometimes falls into the "white feminist" trap but I truly believe it's just out of ignorance. But she tries, and she sure does a lot more than other Hollywood feminists than simply talk big. At the very least she tries her best to help others whenever possible.

What is "white feminist trap"?? Racism even in calling out ppl's activism that u don't agree with?

Just keeping financial talks private is a way to keep this discrimination going. All bosses know this. We need more women of all colors and cultures in power positions. Virtually everything on the planet improves with the empowerment of women and girls.

Ive watched the help yesterday and dang..such a masterpiece!!!! Its awful thats the life those strong women had at that time. Sooo unfortunate. Talkin of octavia: its disgusting that payment depends on race!!! Our black queens need to be appreciated more n more!!! Im glad this movie made the amount it made..what bout: giving payment to talent instead of race.

I think Octavia may have also been referring to Hispanic women (brown). Black and brown folks are paid much less than white people, so sometimes people refer to us as people of color just to be more inclusive, we're both fighting the same fight and there's power in unity.

Fred Pearson you sound like a damn fool. This was TWO years ago, lol and she’s carried a few movies since. Keep up with the times, you authoritarian loving dinosaur.

Imagine... to be paid so little that in order to bring the base pay to equal footing with another white female actress... you have to multiple that by 5X. An Oscar winner no less! It's appalling!!! It goes to show that women of color need to stand together and need more allyship with our white counterparts to move that needle. Much respect to Jessica Chastain for walking that walking and to Octavia Spencer for discussing this openly!

Octavia create your own KZfaq chanel their is no contract with your christian name signed to it stating you yourself cant share your thoughts ideas and self with the multi-verse. I know the permission slip that you signed id meant to make you believe they only have the right to share your image with the Universe and only them. Become weary of Silver Tongues.

Believe it or not there are many good people who want there to be equality for all!!! Why do we have to color code every thing?? Things aren't always what they seem..Just like Humans are more than the color of their skin..

What you get paid is more about bankability. Denzel gets paid what he's worth, as does Samuel L. Julia Roberts gets paid the night bucks because she fills the seats. Mark Whalberg gets paid. Nothing to do with quality of the acting or sex.
