Feinstein: You’re a big, powerful man. Why didn’t you [gestures pushing motion]?
Crews: Senator, as a black man in America [sigh]…
Feinstein: Say it as it is. I think it’s important.
Crews: …you only have a few shots at success. You only have a few chances to make yourself a viable member of the community. I’m from Flint, Michigan. I have seen many many young black men who were provoked into violence, and they were imprisoned, or they were killed, and they’re not here. My wife for years prepared me. She said, “If you ever get goaded, if you ever get prodded, if you ever have anyone try to push you into any kind of situation, don’t do it. Don’t be violent.” And she trained me. I’ll be honest with you it was the strength of my wife who trained me and told me, “If this situation happens, let’s leave.” And the training worked because I did not go into my first reaction, I grabbed her hand, we left, but the next day I went right to the agency. I have texts, I have phone conversations, and I said, “This is unacceptable!” And I told them how -you know- I almost got violent, but I didn’t. And I said, “What are you going to do about this predator that you have roaming your hallways?” And -you know- I was told, “We are going to do everything in our power. We are going to handle this Terry. You’re right. It is unacceptable.” And then they disappeared. Nothing happened.
Look at the faces of the black men behind him it says it all.
This is real fucking infuriating. This shit isn’t funny. Fuck them and anyone who makes fun of Terry Crews speaking out and taking a stand.
We got fed up of seeing “Chuck Norris is a bad ass” memes, since he’s a homophobic, gun-toting bigot. So after Jessy and I decided Terry Crews was a better role model, Tobi and I set to work making some appropriate memes. Please feel free to share, and post whenever you see any Chuck Nonsense.
This is the kind of shit we need; grown-ass celebrity men who are out there making fanart and showing vulnerability and putting themselves out there and destroying toxic masculinity and replacing it with emotionally intelligent, self-aware, secure masculinity.
Terry Crews is on another level y’all
He also sketched Okoye! His instagram is a blessing!
He’s been so outspoken about toxic masculinity and it just gives me so much hope
Terry Crews is everything good and right with our world.
This was the moment I knew I would always love Terry Crews. Because he is shown a picture of himself with his clutch, and he says, “Women have the best ideas.” He does not go into a sloppy explanation about he’s “manly enough” to carry a purse. There’s no “I am a real man” horseshit dropped here. What he says is “Women have the best ideas.” And the rest of the story is basically, “I want to carry my own shit, and my wife always carries a purse with her own shit, so I got a purse for mine.”
Like, this is equality 101. You want to carry your own shit, grab a purse. There should be no judgement for carrying your own shit.
Terry Crews does not need our protection, but we must protect Terry Crews at all costs.
This is BULLSHIT, Dwayne Johnson is jacked as fuck and I FULLY FUCKING BELIEVE he is one of the most LOVING MEN IN THE ENTIRE WORLD
I was on board with the first part until I read that and honestly you’re right nobody has more love in their heart than The Rock

I’d like to add genuine sunshine boy Chris Evans to the mix, who seems to spend his days hugging his dog, growing his beard and schooling Nazis on twitter.
