What u just said is a bucket of bullshit. When you enter into an arrangement with any company to promote a product that is beneficial to both parties, you must live up to what is expected. Monique is no different from any actor in hollywood, just because you got an oscar, just because your name had now been whispered at the top tier does not mean you all of a sudden have enough bargaining power to rock the fucking boat. There are still black men and women who a re trying to make it in the industry, struggling and paying their dues. Monique was just greedy and arrogant because of the people in her ear. The playing field is not the same for black actors in hollywood as it is for white, and she failed to realise that! She did not break the motherfucking mold, she just chipped it. It has taken years for us to reach this level and it will take years again before we can rewrite the black narrative. Play the game and win, not play the game and lose and Monique lost. Oprah is self made, she sacrificed, scraped and crawled until she was able to place herself in a position to show that being black is not a limitation, our route to success may be different from the whites but its a route we have to travel. Oprah and Tyler Perry will never be forgotten, Monique already has. So please dont try to speak for us, "Everybody feels that way" thats all you and probably the 10 or 12%, but the majority still see her as what we aspire to achieve.
