    Well, stop the fricking world lol.

    So, the self-appointed and self-righteous overseers of all things cultural, they get to decide for everyone else what’s culturally acceptable and what isn’t.

    How about we start saying ‘go F* yourselves’? Anyone agree with me that we’re past that point?

    I am going guess that the bottom line here is that he was a big time financial contributor to the school, and there ain’t a whole lot in his films to celebrate

    Are you trolling? He’s arguably the most famous Trojan ever and a worldwide icon and you’re asking why there’s a statue of him in the cinema school?

    If this is really about film icons, George Lucas is a USC alumni, and he did more for American film than Wayne ever did. Lucas certainly rates a statue in the USC film school ahead of Wayne.

    Obama did not support gay marriage before he did.

    Should all his portraits and his name on streets be removed, any schools with his name?

    SMDH. Lucas donated $175 million in 2006 to 'SC, the University's largest donation ever at that point in time, to build a new home for the film school. Such narrow minded thinking to believe a school can only celebrate one person. For those who went to college was their only one name on the various buildings/schools on your campus?

    John Wayne was a very outspoken man. But, just like in Donald Trump's case, you still have to be careful what you say, as you never know when someone is going to quote you.

    John Wayne made a lot of Racist Remarks to a lot of people. Most of which are dead now, but he was known for making racist remarks about Blacks and Indians in particular. These are just a few that he made all in one interview with Playboy Magazine:

    In discussing the revocation of activist Angela Davis' teaching credentials, Wayne said, "We can't all of a sudden get down on our knees and turn everything over to the leadership of the blacks. I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don't believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people."

    Asked about Native Americans playing subordinate roles in his movies, he replied, "I don't feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from them, if that's what you're asking. Our so-called stealing of this country from them was just a matter of survival. There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves."

    When the interviewer requests an example of movies he finds perverted, Wayne singles out Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight's characters in "Midnight Cowboy," which won three Oscars: "Wouldn't you say that the wonderful love of those two men in 'Midnight Cowboy,' a story about two f*gs, qualifies? But don't get me wrong. As far as a man and a woman is concerned, I'm awfully happy there's a thing called sex."

    On the matter of education in the African American community, he said, "Some blacks have tried to force the issue and enter college when they haven't passed the tests and don't have the requisite background. ... I don't know why people insist that blacks have been forbidden their right to go to school. They were allowed in public schools wherever I've been."

    Again on education, he said, "I don't feel guilty about the fact that five or 10 generations ago these people were slaves. Now, I'm not condoning slavery. It's just a fact of life, like the kid who gets infantile paralysis and has to wear braces so he can't play football with the rest of us. I will say this, though: I think any black who can compete with a white today can get a better break than a white man."

    On casting Black actors, Wayne opined, "If it's supposed to be a black character, naturally I use a black actor, but I don't go so far as hunting for positions for them. I think the Hollywood studios are carrying their tokenism a little too far. There's no doubt that 10 percent of the population is black, or colored, or whatever they want to call themselves; they certainly aren't Caucasian. Anyway, I suppose there should be the same percentage of the colored race in films as in society, but it can't always be that way."
    Fuck me rigid, how many times does some prick trot out that Playboy interview rhinking they've found the motherlode?

    I literally know zero people under the age of 70 who watch John Wayne movies. The vast majority of films he was in are utterly forgettable B-list Hollywood mediocrity.

    George Lucas, another USC alumnus, actually directed or produced ground breaking films, and made lasting contributions to the film industry which makes Wayne's contributions look virtually inconsequential.

    Not me, I actually liked John Wayne. But John Wayne and Donald Trump must have thought a lot of Playboy magazine as they went there for interviews to discuss their racist views on things.

    Are you Black? If so you are a discredit to your race! It is easy to call people names on the internet you coward! You are still a slave if you vote democrat, they simply moved the plantation, and give you just enough to keep you voting or them! No significant changes have occurred while they have your vote every election cycle, by riling you up with some supposed injustice, quit being a victim!
