The Girls Have A Difference Of Opinion While Talking About Race | Season 1 Ep. 7 | STAR

[@rhyaweeks]

Alex has a point, Star has been brought up in the streets buuutttt she's still white in America. that's just the sad truth of this nation and star is just focused on the spotlight

[@Dimitribray1999]

Yaya G'baby I agree cause I bet a white person who from the hood can have a better opportunity than a black educated person who is upper class, that shows you there's is a thing called white privilege I don't think Alex was trying to throw a dig on her but white people need to acknowledge their privileges in america and then they get offended by it.

[@rhyaweeks]

Dimitri Bray yup "white privilege." Alex could be rich as an Arabian prince but she's still black and will be treated as such.

Alex has a valid point

[@zynasiahamilton8651]

courtney ford yea

[@RyanWilliamMac]

so does Star. Alex may be black, but she comes from Privilege. Star has seen more of the streets then both of the girls put together.

[@98tam]

Ryan William that's not the point.

[@courtneynoelle1761]

the point is that outside of her background, SHE IS STILL A BLACK WOMAN IN AMERICA. STAR IS WHITE

[@scottyb9778]

Tammy Lewis You right that's not the point but I see excatly where he is coming from. That's like us gay people saying straight women or even straight men can't protest or fight for our rights because they are heterosexual and not homosexual. No as long as you fighting for the right thing and in your heart you truly feel that way then so be it. Idgaf if she was Yellow if she want to stand up for our rights because it's the right thing to do then let her dammit!

[@kylam22]

I agree with Alex 100%. I can relate to this first hand. Even though I grew up in predominately “white neighborhoods” I’m still BLACK where ever I go. I am still that black girl that can’t be too loud and get outcasted sometimes. I agree with Simone too because although she’s half white, people are still gonna look at her blackness. Trust me, I’ve seen it firsthand.

[@kavontaylor2485]

@tyrez moss, this is true. It doesn't matter if she is rich. Its her skin color. She'll be treated the same as a poor or wealthy one so star needs to stop with that "I wasn't born with a sliver spoon".

[@xs_eli8349]

Star may be a self-centered and arrogant. Alex may had silver spoon up her but, Star has to realize the difference of "privilege" and "white privilege" Yes, Alex is a black girl raise in the city and Star is white girl raised on the streets and she feels like she understands how if it feels to be black and she doesn't realize the what kind of privilege she has as a white woman. Comparing a white girl and a black girl both raised in streets. The white girl would have way more privileges. I honestly don't think Star isn't thinking about the race of this situation. Star thinks just because, she raised in the hood that she understands how it feels to be black. Alex in the other hand, is saying that no matter where she comes from, uptown or downtown, she is Black Wherever She Goes and what I always say "It's what you say, It's how you say it." And Alex I agree with every word that Alex said. But, How she said it was little harsh. Well, because this topic is a very serious matter and she's still upset about what Star did on the previous episode.(I would pissed as well) that's why Star stormed off. (I'm standing up for Star) I'm just giving my opinions.

[@princessrocroyal]

I see your point but I don't think that she thinks her life is the same as a black person I think what she means is she's everyday poor ppl that had to struggle for what they have but again I see your point with everything else she doesn't have the best understanding between privilege and white privilege

[@pocketrocket1995]

Very racist of you to think

[@brittanymckinney7835]

I see both sides. Wish times were different.

Star is always thinking about herself, Alex and Simone are still hurt for what Star did, but Star has a point and Alex too.

But star wasn’t wrong this time - normally star is wrong most of the time but this time you could tell that she actually understood everyone . Alex had a point . But star did too ... this a both sided argument .

[@angelfairy6676]

@@londonnkimorii3015 Star is arrogant she only thinks about her sister and Alex when its convenient for her and then wants to wonder they dont want her to be apart of it. As far as Alex and Simone see Star thinks about herself and the spotlight , of course they wouldn't think she would actually care.

[@tanayjagaskins9448]

What did Star mean by the that when she said Half Black nobody cares simone is still black💯

[@aly6876]

Tanayja Gaskins mixed people have more privatizes too, in facts Simone never got any discrimination on the show so she shouldn’t be complaining

[@RyanWilliamMac]

This episode is going to be a loaded one. I can just feel it. This scene alone goes to show the intensity of this topic. Both, Alex and Star, raise very extremely valid points. I just hope Star takes this as the chance to truly wake up. For a girl who's seen more hardship, and "the streets," then both Simone and Alex put together, she's still got so much to learn.

[@98tam]

Ryan William nah Simone had it worst. she was raped and became addicted to drugs.

[@natashastewart3319]

[@jamilahhudgins1746]

Alex is completely right. Star cannot relate to the problems of black people no matter how poor she is/was. Hell the reason their group is doing well is because of Star's privilege.

[@ashleyesper4090]

Nah idgaf they did Star dirty. Yeah, she cares about f me but she should still be able to care about the black community as much as they do.

[@angelfairy6676]

Why would they think star would care? She gives them every reason to doubt her. She thinks of them as a team but only thinks about herself. She only thinks about them when its convenient for her. And shows she only cares about the spotlight and fame and herself.

[@londonnkimorii3015]

See I don’t like that they refused to see that star actually cared that time , despite that Alex had a VERY valid point , star did also ... this was one of the most petty arguments they ever had ..

[@cwi9261]

Ever since the song "Man" I felt the oncoming animosity or disagreement that was SURE TO COME between Alex and Star. HOWEVER...Simone shocked the ever living heck out of me when she said that sentence though. Uff. I got winded.

[@mylifeasrenee4750]

Star is right just because she is white doesn’t mean that she can’t relate to some things because yes being black is really important but they were acting like just because they are black or half Black they can’t see that star has gone through some things other than Alex she is born with fame money and opportunity other than star who is white and was poor with No money no parents nothing so they both have good sides but I think star has more of a valid point I am black but at the end of the day it can’t always be about race because everyone has gone through things

[@lenisewilliams3269]

True black people go through more things than white

[@whywhywhy8117]

Black people go through more racist things than white people by a long shot, but to say that Black people go through life harder than all and any white people is just not true. Which is what I’m getting from your comment

[@clenishaterrell4687]

Lmfaoo you guys know they just acting right..? No need for names 😂😂

[@marilynanye470]

In my opinion Star is treated unfairly but that doesn't mean Alex and Simone don't have a point. When you're black it is hard to walk on the streets because you know people will give you weird looks and be talking behind your back. But then again they're basically saying that Star is like the rest of the white people that is basically sterotyping. Not all whites are racist you know. Although Star is acting like she knows how it feels like when really she doesn't. She's talking about how hard it is to be poor and on the streets but they're not talking about that. So I get both points of the story so I'm not picking sides.

[@zi1458]

I feel like star just tries to take all the fame even though she's in a group😡 Alex and Simone are so beautiful tho star is just annoying

[@nydrayahhadayah]

They sort of did box her in with racist white people. I'm usually not really ever on stars side, but I can understand how she feels this time. Even though Alex is 'black where ever she goes' she hasn't actually gon' through half of what star or Simone had went through, so she shouldn't really say anything to neither of them tbh (not saying that she did).

[@kaylahmosley790]

Nana Smith How??? Sweetheart it's a difference between privilege and WHITE privilege... Alex is right no matter how rich you are you will always be black and a threat and you could be white and poor and you still get privilege just from being white...Because even a broke white person wouldnt want to switch places with a rich black person... Sorry but it is what it is...Alex's rich girl privilege is NOTHING to Star's WHITE privilege...

[@alaasusername]

They were alll out of line here. They both made good points but there never should have been so much generalizing

[@kavontaylor2485]

no, its the opposite. Star hasnt gone what they been through, SHE HAS A PRIVILEGE- she gets it easier hun. Ppl sees simone as a black women, even if shes mixed. Doesn't matter poor or not alex & simone r black & dont get it easier.

[@jaymak_16]

i do feel bad for star here but those 2 were just saying Gods honest truth! y'll this wasn't about money or who had a tougher upbringing, it was about standing up against policy brutality when it comes to black people. so you know what Alex IS black and you all saw the episode she got arrested really roughly for no reason. that's what this was about, don't come here and say oh Star understands. whether you are black or white you can't tell me white people really understand this.yes they may feel bad or be against it but until you can't enroll in a school because you are black, or go certain places without people looking at you like you are out of place or in some cases even telling you as much, or not being considered for a swim team because black people "cant" swim or have the oh how did you manage to get here look 🙉 then you really don't understand, you MAY GET it but YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!! e.g if star understood then she would have understood when Alex got moved from the middle and had her face powdered so many times because she wasn't light enough. star was too obnoxious to see it. Hell EVEN Simone knew what was and still is going on that's why she is on Alex's side.

[@pocketrocket1995]

Star has a good point…. So valid

[@kaykayw347]

[@landonpalmer4165]

I agree with Alex and Simone it’s just there saying it to her like she’s one of the white people who are attacking them

[@ariyananicole9064]

Honestly, the more I watch this ...the more I hate the character star because she's self centered and always thinking of herself. No one else matters and she's willing to do anything and everything even if it hurts people that's she is surrounded to get what she wants. If there isn't a character development with her then I may stop watching, only reason I watch this show is due to the fact Ryan Destiny, Quincy Jones , Queen Latifa and the other characters are relatable and more.... I'm sure the actual actress that plays Star is bomb, it's just her character is making it hard for me to enjoy the show.

[@mimilook4347]

Actually it does matter what family you're born into. Race matters too of course, but when you're a kid living in a poor family it doesn't matter what colour you are you're going to be the butt of the joke to more privileged kids. After you grow up and if you ever make your own money you can have a better life and better friends, but no one can give you your childhood back. No one can give me my childhood back either. And the world will never change unfortunately, people will always find a reason to hate you, make fun of you, discriminate you.

[@jacobrudolph8384]

I’m black and I know I’m only 14 but don’t really put up race with anything tbh cuz I feel like it’s no point everyone goes through hard times black,white,mixed or whatever so I just feel like if star wanted to help then let her help and if she didn’t then so be it

Not sure why your acting rude. She does wear her makeup to dark. In pictures look at her neck and arms compared to face, its pale white skin. Her brother also looks like your everday white boy. Anyway, she is white. I've seen pictures of her parents and family members. You may want her to be "mixed" but she isn't. There are white hispanics if your weren't aware😒Even if they are slightly light tan in color (which only her father appeared) a lot would still be mostly...white. Reproducing with white person=white person. You have a seat...getting a attitude over someone you don't know.😂

[@mkwhite5054]

How does that make sense? This entire conversation is about them wanting to make sure Star wouldn’t make things about her AND SHE LITERALLY DID THAT. They were talking about issues black people face and Star made it into “but I’m a good white” which was exactly the point but judging by your profile pic, you have the same mentality as Star in this moment.

shataysia nelson she has a better understanding of the streets and struggling, not race. They are two completely different things. Star would still have better opportunities than Alex any day just because she's white. She has privilege systematically and in society, money doesn't mean anything. Backgrounds don't matter, a white person will still have privilege over a black person in America and that's what she needs to understand.
