The Motn Picture Amy fac a new public relatns crisis over s choice of Kev Hart as this year's Osrs host as old tweets have surfaced which Hart exprsed anti-gay sentiments and ed homophobic termology and slurs. * kevin hart stop thats gay *
Nick Cannon ma a pot to repost homophobic tweets prevly ma by whe edians such as Amy Schumer, Sarah Silverman, and Chelsea Handler. On the other end of the spectm, I wnsed a sea of whe gay men such as edian Billy Eichner celebrate the ocsn wh lls for one of their own wh the muny to host the show.
Even more tratg is that the suatn further rerced the stereotype of black homophobia — a myth that suggts black people are more herently homophobic given their cultural exchang hip-hop and relign. Such stigma was perpetuated by people like whe gay activist and wrer Dan Savage, who, back 2008, blamed the black muny’s lacklter support of same-sex marriage the passg of Proposn 8. And while there were a high number of blacks who supported this particular anti-LGBTQ policy, let’s keep md the majory of whe people who routely vote for Republin ndidat, the party known for champng homophobic legislatn across the board, pared to the black muny.
Even though homophobia is jt as proment across other racial groups, societal stereotyp of black hypermasculy often magnify the dispary of LGBTQ people wh the black muny.
KEV HART IS DELETG OLD ANTI-GAY TWEETS AFTER BEG ANNOUNCED AS OSRS HOST
Hart’s homophobia, like that of men om other rac, is a byproduct of toxic masculy and unfair expectatns of genr performance. This is evint the excln of people of lor wh the LGBTQ anizatns that are supposed to reprent all: The leadg natnal LGBTQ publitns, such as the Advote, Out, and Attu, faced backlash after the hashtag #GayMediaSoWhe lled them out for their lack of diversy. For s, the LGBTQ muny has been domated media, learship, and visibily by whe gay men who have not worked hard enough to fairly share power.
Which is why ’s so tratg to see the chos of whe crics like Eichner, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Tyler Oakley g for Hart, pecially when feels like a double standard is employed for whe people who make homophobic ments.
Depictns of LGBTQ people popular culture also promote misleadg narrativ of how homophobia is alt wh black and whe muni. While whe homophobia is often rolved films or televisn shows that tell “g out” stori, homophobia is often picted as a relentls force the liv of black LGBTQ people.

For example, recent films such as Love Simon, Alex Strangelove, and Call Me by Your Name, whe lead characters overe homophobia through love and passn. But other LGBTQ films such as Pariah, Blackbird, and Moonlight pict black characters as enunterg homophobic parents who are more vlent, cel, and unfivg. It is the dispari that I believe misplaced fear and rentment stems om: Black straight people have been ndned to view homophobia solely as a whe person’s opprsn.

For example, rather than black straight people tryg to fe what is or is not homophobic regard to Hart’s behavr, they should allow LGBTQ people our own muny to take the lead such nversatns.
