Samuel L. Jackson said Saturday at a press conference in L.A for Quentin Tarantino?s new movie ?Hatful Eight?,
?We have to be these very nice kinds of Negroes so that we feel safe walking around. Because if you present yourself as any other thing, then people call people on you.?
Tarantino?s violent new Western touched frequently on America?s lingering race problems, only hree days after U.S. citizen Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife Tashfeen Malik killed 14 people and injured 21 others in a deadly terrorist attack in San Bernardino.
Jackson expressed sympathy for those who will be subjected to heightened scrutiny and racial profiling over their religious beliefs or the color of their skin.
The actor said that he feels sorry for everybody who looks Middle Eastern right now because that?s going to happen.
The Hateful Eight marks Jackson?s sixth film for Tarantino, and on the heels of QT?s Oscar-winning Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained, completes the filmmaker?s trilogy of historical pulp sagas that tap into harsh lessons from our collective past as much as they offer visceral doses of his signature cool factor.
