i do not have an opinion no matter what you know i do not have an opinion and i why not we're sorry but you get people on twitter that will say shut up and act or shut up i'm saying shut up and dance and i would say no we are people too and i think the more that people in front of the camera really understand that they have a voice also. and people often get quite jealous of those i have a platform without realizing they were very hard for that platform i worked very hard to hang on to be sitting here today i work very hard at that why. some actors might have no thoughts on the matter some might have thoughts. they're very infantilized and you get used to being coddled and told what to do where to sit how to look what to be. i don't cotton to that kind of. direction and he well it's clearly. how big his will have to be before he gets the freedom natalie

portman recently said she was supporting gaza robert redford has always been a big name and always talked about the military industrial complex warren beatty you have to be really concerned you have read that big to really have any kind of freedom or even they have strictures a place i think. well i mean. i'm sure that the men get a lot more leeway susan sarandon i think. by hollywood standards was kind of branded you know kind of kooky that's what they like to do if you have a personality or you have a specific point of view you're a kook or you're kind of unhinged. when it's ok to just be a person and have have a point of view it doesn't have to be anybody else's but it can be yours. and i think if you're young and you're up and coming and you're making noise about gaza all of people above you will get very nervous because then you're going to get put

in celebrity time. so what you're saying is that you're in the corner at lincoln so absurd is really a magazine celebrity i mean i mean you get your like a little kid you get your face in the corner until you get better it's the proverbial time out it's it's quite asinine to tell you the truth so my friends are for two people you mention in the book if we if we get away from the level of things maybe disappointed to know that robert rodriguez going to terra to you know seen as independent filmmaker is not that much different really to the corporate film because. you know there are there are men with power. and in fact. i would think the corporate ones might have more oversight but. their oversight committee was harvey weinstein. too which of course there was the powerful will say well justice was eventually people often have to
8:03 am
just wait quietly. i know they had a hand in. quentin even said they all know you know he knew about me he said it in an interview. you know they say the complicity machine is huge they're. going to talk about an industrial complex is one of complicity. and it's one of continually protecting people that aren't even that great in the first place so they're not. just clean out the crap so great things can come just cut off the head the rot and let other things flora show because we know it's all there we've all worked in those places where it would be so great if it weren't for that one person get rid of that one person. the attitude comes from the top down and the attitude of permissiveness imagine if your boss is a known rapist where you get to get away with. pretty much everything right it is
8:04 am
something of the malcolm x. in this targeting of the talk because obviously you talk about hollywood functioning as propaganda the billions of people going to the movies when you were promoting them on that level people arguably feel that they can't do as much but it is at the top that things have to change yes it is at the top. fundamentally biting ankles of power does not work so i wanted to show people that you could go for that but of course some people saying that they're there quite a few people still still there other definitely are for legal reasons regardless should any of the people i mean how would you see how the law serves them as well in terms of media being able to cover stories like this well i mean if you look at harvey weinstein got to turn himself in on a friday afternoon to be arrested on a long weekend that means his story won't be running all week in the news you know
8:05 am
already be old news by the time the next week rolls around after the bank holiday you know that's all orchestrated that's all orchestrated in the media by not covering it in the weeks following necessarily falls into that week on a quest save the police acted like a cd or promotional system of staggering events in his case he has people high up. on his side which is a sad side to be on and you see it is symptomatic all of this probably again to the people you seem to preempt the criticism in the book towards the end saying people will think i should i only would rather than all he would is me for what element of it is don't. you know i think i get to say to you no i don't know hollywood anything. now why i don't see many people that do you know people like me the ones that are marketed as sex symbols they don't and i talk about this in the
8:06 am
book they don't generally get out of there alive or they're kind of driven crazy and live off in the desert somewhere and they don't come out the other side it's very hard to come out the other side. an interviewer asked me if i was person and non-grata in hollywood and i said no the persona non-grata was me i get to say i got to say to my count and in terms of trying to change things you talk about emailing tweeting social media because she will boycotting it isn't there well to me it is to do with mass action and i suppose that the meta you were was a big degree of mass action whether it be through writing or trade unions they will decline in the united states is that the way forward because presumably even you think this is just one success you haven't been totally successful well i think it has changed a lot i've heard of that they're receiving a scene right now on something i know about a project i've heard of where it was to sexualized
8:07 am
a rape so they're taking it out entirely people are starting to see things with different lenses it's whether they fully understand it or not. who knows but they understand that it's bad and that's a start you know i was sent a script a while ago and every single time a female character appeared she had a laundry basket for no apparent reason and she never did the laundry she just liked her laundry basket. is that kind of stuff i want people to start seeing these movies and and the television and picking apart what they're telling you pick apart like what message are you sending me with this female character with this male character with a toxic masculinity this is not just about how women are represented it's men and of course of his men running something they're going to be defined men by it in a way that i think puts a trap on a lot of men and also i feel like little boys you see it so young with them when they get to know your so brave you don't cry my heart breaks for them cry it hurt you'll be done in
8:08 am
a minute it's cool you're ok but people are so quick to stick you in the box aren't that at that kills me people think they do i do everything for women. i think i'm more of a humanist now i want to get out of these rigid structures because they're killing us i mean if you look at the state of the world i think arguably could say it's having some troubles toxic masculinity can only bring you so far and then it will cave in on itself but i think it i hope it caves into freedom for everybody because i want everybody to be out of these rigid structures are in because they're just not necessary you know i've been lucky enough in a lot of ways to live a fairly free life even while in different cults at least the life of the mind and i got mine back close i kept i kept older i got that but i didn't break and i see that so many men i see them like kind of. not knowing
8:09 am
or being taught a process or or just and there's so much you know violence was women and it stems from it stems from this idea of ownership for one thing of women and the other part i think is not being able to process emotion i mean there are people that are socially sick there's that but what about the. you know the main and and that's where like i know it sounds really weird but my heart almost breaks par for the month. resident and that's it for the show will be back on monday keep in touch with us by social media till then we'll see your mother forty six years to the day of the acquittal of george is a but a kidnapping and conspiracy of the american communist angela davis nabby activist professor angela davis of university of california.
