Terry Crews is continuing to stir controversy on Twitter by tweeting an acronym for a racist term, tweeting that it stands for "Conquer Our Own Negativity."
Crews followed up the tweet by responding to a follower who said that the word is "an outdated Term used to tear each other down." He responded by writing, "But I've learned to catch the lemons thrown at you, Make lemonade. Then make lemon bars. Make a lemon scented hand sanitizer, sell the rinds in the spice aisle for bbq lemon pepper wings then take the seeds and grow more lemon trees."
This comes after tweeting, "Defeating White supremacy without White people creates Black supremacy. Equality is the truth. Like it or not, we are all in this together." Godfrey called out Terry on both Twitter and in an interview with VladTV.
Terry stood behind his tweet during an interview with The View, stating, "We have people who have decided who is going to be Black and who’s not. And I simply — because I have a mixed-race wife (Rebecca King-Crews) — have been discounted from the conversation a lot of the time, by very, very militant movements, the Black power movement. I’ve been called all kinds of things — like an Uncle Tom — simply because I’m successful, simply because I’ve worked my way out of Flint, Michigan."
