It's important and necsary for black actors to be st rol wrten for black people, but gay rol should be up for grabs? Here’s the thg about Idris Elba sayg Whehall as a landmark gay don’t matter. at some pot the media and people should not pretend that one opprsed mory n speak for anotherjt like most gay whe men don't really know that much about the opprsn of black gays, cis-het men like Idris Elba don't get to pretend to be the expert on gay men— Monjula Ray (@queerBengali) Augt 29, 2018.
