Black Excellence within the Black Experience of TV and Film
Jonathan Majors faced the consequences of his actions—to some. To others, he’s on a premature redemption tour with Meagan Good, while Magazine Dreams, a shelved film with Oscar potential, finally gets released. I love him as an actor, but abuse—physical, emotional, or otherwise—makes redemption hard especially when we’re just over a year removed from the […]
