Actor Matt Damon has come under fire for comments he made about racial diversity in Hollywood during an episode of his reality competition series ?Project Greenlight.? The most recent episode of the behind-the-scenes series, featured the ?Bourne Identity? star sitting down with Ben Affleck, the Farrelly brothers and ?Dear White People? producer Effie Brown to discuss the finalists to direct a comedy in which the sole black character was a prostitute.During the debate, Brown stressed the importance of selecting a director who would bring diversity to the project, titled ?Not Another Pretty Woman,? and suggested they pick Leo Angelos, and Asian man, and Kristen Brancaccio, a Caucasian woman.
Damon felt Angelos and Brancaccio were not the best choices because they had failed to voice potential issues with the character, saying, ?So on the surface they (Angelos and Brancaccio) look like one thing, but they might end up giving us something we don?t want.
Viewers have since taken aim at Damon for his comments on social media, attacking him by writing, ? Matt Damon speaking over the only black person in the room so he can explain diversity to her is SO WHITE it hurts,? while another adds, ?You see, successful black woman, diversity is whatever white, straight, men say it is.?
