I
wonder what was on Denzel Washington’s mind when he took the role in the film
Flight. He played an alcoholic and drug addict that treated everyone badly.
Washington’s character could not shake his addiction no matter who tried to
help him. The character only gets his mind together in prison. Washington
should know better than to promote slavery. The law that freed dark people in
the United States enslaved them again with the prison system. A large part of
our existence is spent trying to stay out of prisons. Washington is not a
stupid man, so he had to know what he was doing. We all make mistakes so maybe
Washington will think again before taking these kinds of roles.
