I did watch that night, and my parents were the type that were all in for her from the start; my parents were indirectly involved in a group supporting the Wounded Knee protest (it was probably my mothers favorite Oscar moment of all time).
I think there has been some Public shaming, growing on Twitter since the Will Smith incident, as the story about Wayne Having to be restrained from physically attacking her got traction. Still, I agree it was a good idea to do this while she is still alive to appreciate it. On Tue, 16 Aug 2022 at 11:29 AM Tom Wolper <[email protected]> wrote: > I was really touched by this story.
