I just came across this interesting piece and I’ve decided to share….Our African actors are working extra hard to make it to Hollywood, but is Hollywood even ready to give them a warm welcome?

The question being asked out here is; Is Hollywood replacing African-American actors with African actors?

According to Madamnoire;

Producer and screenwriter Gary Hardwick, who is best known for writing on the films’ Deliver Us from Eva and The Brothers as well as being the executive producer of the popular 90s television show “In the House,” has created a thought provoking meme about the African-invasion into Hollywood.

As you can see from the picture above, the meme is a board of two rows of six faces: the top row has pictures of blacks actors and actresses with African names and the bottom row is comprised of black folks with…well you know how creative us American blacks can be. (But it’s from the Bible though!) Anyway, the collage’s caption reads as follows:

Musician Kojo Antwi eulogized late broadcaster Komla Dumor who died last Saturday 19^th Jan, 2014, disclosing that the latter’s death is as painful as that of Bob Marley, Nelson Mandela and other legends.

Kojo Antwi made those remarks in an interview with Myjoyonline.com on Tuesday 22^nd Jan, 2014 after signing the book of condolence opened at Joy 99.7 fm in honour of the former Super Moring Show host on Joy 99.7 fm.

On today, 24^th Jan, 2014 edition of Adom 106.6 fm’s morning show – Dwaso Nsem, ace Journalist Kwasi Pratt spit venom at those who seem to be passing hyperbolized remarks at the late Komla Dumor; all in the name of solidarity.

“How can you liken Komla Dumor to Nelson Mandela? How can you compare the two? What do they have in common? Comments like these bring up needless wrangles! You say Komla Dumor is like Nelson Mandela and then another person comes to refute it. At the end of the day, we end up digging into their personality ‘work sheets.’

Mr. Pratt also took a swipe at Deputy Minister of Tourism, Dzifa Gomashie. “Komla Dumor is bigger than Ghana! How could the Deputy Minister of Tourism say that? How can any person be bigger than his or her country? Nobody is bigger than Ghana! Kwame Nkrumah, Komfo Anokye, Asaboamanfi, Aggrey, and others were all not bigger than Ghana!”
