Profiles in Courage: Hollywood Men to Wear All Black Tuxedos to Protest Harvey Weinstein, or Something

After decades of ignoring, embracing and enabling rampant sexual abuse in Hollywood, some of its biggest male (and female) stars plan to wear black at Sunday's Golden Globe awards as a protest against Harvey Weinstein and those like him.

    Male actors have decided to join forces with their female peers who will protest sexual harassment by wearing black to the 2018 Golden Globes.

    A number of high profile actors including Dwayne Johnson, Tom Hiddleston and Armie Hammer will sport black on the Globes red carpet according to their stylist Ilaria Urbinanti.

    After receiving many questions on the matter, Urbinanti took to Instagram to confirm the fashion news.

    “YES the men WILL be standing in solidarity with women on this wearing all-black movement to protest against gender inequality at this year’s Golden Globes. At least ALL MY GUYS will be,” celebrity stylist Ilaria Urbinanti wrote last week on Instagram.

Are they going to give speeches telling why they all knew what was happening and ignored, or encouraged it?

So a group of self proclaimed “woke” male actors will wear an extremely common suit color to show solidarity with female actresses they knew were being sexually exploited by a man these same male actors still chose to associate with. ‘Scuse the grammar, mama’s drinking tonigh  :beer:

You got it.  They were co-conspirators, and now they're play acting as though they care.

They are what Trump would grab a woman by, and they are now hiding behind clothing color.
