Chris Rock shouted out “Black Lives Matter” “BET” and “Brooklyn” at the Oscars. Y’all better never call that man a sellout.

There are still “real things to protest,” @chrisrock. Like, police violence. And the #FlintWaterCrisis. #Oscars

Chris Rock’s monologue was, I’d venture, uncomfortable for most of us to watch. And perhaps that was the point. #Oscars

Great observations made by Chris Rock. Put a lot of things in perspective. I mean things we already knew but was good to hear them said.
