It appears as if Mr. Freeman's viewpoint is evolving, since that 60 Minutes interview 14 years ago.

Morgan Freeman wants to hear from ordinary people in Black Lives Matter campaign – HITC


"Hollywood star Morgan Freeman wants to hear from ordinary people in a social media campaign to support Black Lives Matter.

The death of George Floyd on May 25th has sparked the biggest wave of protests we’ve seen in a generation.

Not only have demonstrations been seen across the US but the wider world has followed suit to send the message that black lives matter.

And while thousands of people on the street is a hugely inspiring sight, you can’t find anyone much better to spread the Black Lives Matter message than God himself.

Or least God in the Bruce Almighty and Evan Almighty films.

That’s right, Morgan Freeman has joined the Black Lives Matter movement and the Hollywood star wants to hear from you as part of his social media campaign."

Why would someone revere BLM when anyone with an internet connection, and a modicum of curiosity, can quickly figure out it's a revolutionary Marxist organization at heart.??

There's only two explanations I can think of: 1) agreement with the end goal or 2) lack of knowledge. Maybe there are others ...

That's a false premise and accusation. A better question would be, "why are there so many who support Fascism and are so strongly against a movement whose goal is to provide equality for everyone, regardless of their skin color?"

There's really only two explanations, that I can think of: 1) Racism and bigotry. 2) A lack of knowledge or education.

"support fascism.' ....what a joke. This mantra has become an emotional spasm by some on the left who equate opposition to an insurrection to fascism. Ooo scary talk about "fascists" yadda. Bad people. etc

I've got black folk in my family tree and I don't need to hear about skin color from guilty white liberals although it is amusing.
