Stacey Dash recently added her two cents in on the growing controversy surrounding this year’s Academy Awards. Following reports that actors Jada Pinkett-Smith and Spike Lee have called for a boycott of the awards, Dash spoke out saying she does not agree with the boycott.
Hit the jump for more.
While Stacey Dash could admit that the selection of Academy voters who decide on the nominees needs to be more diverse she argued;
“Either we want to have segregation or integration, and if we don’t want segregation then we need to get rid of channels like B.E.T., and the B.E.T. Awards and the Image Awards where you’re only awarded if you’re Black. If it were the other way around we would be up in arms – it’s a double standard.”
She even went as far to say, “There shouldn’t be a Black History Month.” adding, “You know, we’re Americans. Period. That’s it.”
