Jodie Turner-Smith Says She Won't Be Raising Her Kids In The U.S. Because, White Supremacy

 Jodie Turner-Smith has starred in several short films and a few TV series, but she was placed on everyone’s radar when killed her lead role in Queen & Slim, alongside Daniel Kaluuya. 
The British babe got a ring from her beau Joshua Jackson reportedly. She’s about seven months along now.
The Queen & Slim actress will be welcoming her first child with Joshua. There had been reports she and the 41-year-old married in 2018 after they were spotted getting a marriage license. However, she still hasn’t confirmed or denied. And maybe she won’t since she received so much backlash when fans found out her partner was Caucasian.
"There was this wave of people who were upset that I was possibly married to a white man," she said. "In America, interracial dating or marriage is not something that is as accepted."
"Certain people feel strongly against it, in both communities," she continued. "I felt it from the black community. It is so complicated. I don’t want to give it too much energy. The horrific things that people were saying, it makes you … I’m learning there are certain things I have to really keep for myself.”



“I haven’t said to anybody, ‘Yeah, we got married.’ People are assuming whatever they want, but when people tell me ‘Congratulations’, I say ‘Thank you,'” she told The Sunday Times.


She was spotted bumping along in London in a pink Gucci dress and Gucci glasses to do press for Queen & Slim:







The 33-year-old actress is not sure she wants to raise her future children in the United States. The reason? White supremacy and race relations.
“The racial dynamics over here are fraught,” she said. “White supremacy is overt. It’s the reason I don’t want to raise my kids here,” she revealed.
She’s concerned with America’s gun policies:
”I don’t want my kids to grow up doing active shooter drills at school,” she said.
Since she said “England has gone off the rails,” she and her partner Joshua are considering to move to Canada.
When Jodie first came to America, she was “excited” to move here and meet other black people, but it was a “huge culture shock” for her because she claims she was “rejected by the black community.”
“They were like, ‘You talk like a white girl,'” she told The Times. “People would call me an Oreo. All I wanted was acceptance.”








📎 The key is : Learn how to BE HAPPY BY YOURSELF FIRST. Because a human being that is happy on his/her own will never settle to be miserable with someone else. When you find happiness on your own then you will be able to spread it and share it with someone else. #jaiyeorie ... CRITIC ALSO 🖋️ spill TEA ☕ Easy on Shade 💣
