Morgan Freeman, the legendary Hollywood actor, has never been one to shy away from expressing his views, even when they go against popular narratives. Known for his deep, commanding voice and a career spanning several decades, Freeman has also made headlines for his candid opinions on race and social issues.

Way back in 2005, he sent shockwaves through the media by rejecting the liberal narrative about black Americans.

Well, many years have passed. Perhaps Freeman has mellowed out and swallowed the blue pill? During a recent interview, a reporter asked him about his views on this beloved liberal idea — and it looks like his views haven’t changed at all. He dumped cold water on the left’s precious “month.”

From The Post Millennial:
Actor Morgan Freeman has reiterated his spite for Black History Month as he did in an old clip that has floated around the internet for years. “I detest it,” he told a reporter last week.

Freeman, who has long been a critic of Black History Month, told Variety in an interview about the subject, “I detest it. The mere idea of it.”

“You are going to give me the shortest month in a year? And you are going to celebrate ‘my’ history? This whole idea makes my teeth itch. It’s not right,” he told the outlet.  “My history is American history. It’s the one thing in this world I am interested in, beyond making money, having a good time and getting enough sleep,” he added.

Many Americans are likely to agree with that sentiment, and so much more. The famed actor said he “detests” Black History Month; he even hates the “mere idea of it.” But he wasn’t done there. Freeman went on to explain how insulting it was that politicians designated the “shortest month” in the year to black Americans.

He further rebuked the idea that black Americans have a separate history from everyone else. The actor proudly proclaimed, “My history is American history.” In fact, he said that was the one thing in the world he was interested in, beyond making money, “having a good time,” and getting sleep.

Freeman is not the first actor in recent years to buck liberal Hollywood, as it seems some older actors are no longer afraid to speak out against the far left’s agenda. Beloved actor Dennis Quaid applauded Donald Trump and even said he’d vote for him.

Others have criticized Los Angeles’ decline due to woke politics. Still other entertainers, especially stand-up comedians, are using their platforms to blast Joe Biden and Democrats’ failed policies.

Key Takeaways:

• Morgan Freeman revealed in a recent interview that he still detests “Black History Month.”
• The famed actor said his history was “American history.” He first blasted BHM in 2005.
• This comes as more actors are coming out criticizing liberal ideas and agendas.
