Barr is one of the few women in Hollywood who beat the system on her own terms never compromising her values and staying true to herself with NO inside connections or help from anyone. She actually lives her beliefs and is the same person you see in interviews is who she is in real life. She is not a fake person like so many others in Hollywood. She is a real working class hero to have accomplished everything she did, it is truly amazing. Now because of one tweet when she did not know Valerie Jarret was black in a career over three decades she is being thrown under the bus. Barr spoke out about Cosby, Louis CK and others LONG BEFORE ANYONE ELSE DID and as usual stuck her neck out without regards to the consequences she might face. Barr fought the studio system for a decade to portray blacks, gays, women and WORKING CLASS PEOPLE WITH DIGNITY & they continually vilified her despite all making millions off her talent.. Not to mentioned all the opportunites and careers she gave to others. Sara Gilbert has thrown Roseanne under the bus because of one tweet when Sara knows how hard Roseanne fought for all her workers against the studio and she knows damn well Roseanne is NOT A RACIST. Gilbert is trash & she personifies how fake many people in hollywood are to be more concerned for her career, image and corporate ass kissing than supporting a woman she has known for decades over ONE DAMN TWEET. People should listen to an interview Barr did years ago on her radio show with Leonard Rowe about racism in Hollywood.because no other celeb of her stature would ever put that kind of content out or even talk about it and I guess everyone has forgotten Barr also was supporting spike lee on twitter after Treyvon Martin was killed and Barr re-tweeted out Zimmermans info. Zimmerman's family then sued Barr. Roseanne then fought them in court because she felt she had to- to do the right thing & she won.. Roseanne did it due to her ethics & THAT IS WHY the Corporate System in Hollywood REALLY AXED HER; BECAUSE BARR LIVES HER BELIEFS & ETHICS, HAS A BACKBONE & she will not compromise, It is about control and they have never been able to control Roseanne or shut her up and they never will.

Im in love, what a cool lady that Roseanne

[@garrettdodson6110]

What’s makes me so mad is Sandra Bernard. She claimed to be Roseanne’s best friend forever. Then she completely abandoned and stand Roseanne in the back over her tweet. Sandra Bernhardt has said way worse things about people In her career. Roseanne I’m sorry how many people Just abandoned you and tried to destroy and you.

[@yallnwahsdontevendrinkskoo4092]

I disagree with her on a lot of shit, but you can not deny the fact she doesn't give a fuck, and that's why I like her. She tells you what she believes to be the truth and she doesn't apologize for it. Makes her okay in my book.

[@raritydivine7578]

I adore Roseanne!

[@TiberiusStorm]

Poor Roseanne is being skewered now!

[@tdata545]

Patrice was so fucking worldly for how young he was. Was one of the rare black people who could openly criticize his race and accurately critique others.

[@sweetcrosby]

3:50 ten seconds. That's all it took for me to want this woman as president more than hillary.

[@GritsnBeans]

Brandon Crosby Hmmm, what say you now?

[@aizen111]

noice

[@erins.5420]

I don't have hope I have faith!

[@AB-bt9eb]

First, I love Roseanne. She's beyond brilliant. I understand where she's coming from. However, you need hope and faith to be optimistic, to go far in life, deal with obstacles, be content etc. Everyone has faith in something, it just depends on what you have faith in. Hope and faith are a part of reality. I see a lot of people saying things like this and they're either miserable or on antidepressants or something else to numb reality.
