How To Get Away With Murder's Matt McGorry Claps Back at Iggy Azalea's "Becky" Comments

Iggy Azalea has often shared her opinions about bullying via social media and now she has an issue with our beloved Beyoncé. After Beyoncé slayed our lives with her new album Lemonade, Queen Bey made a reference about a woman she calls "Becky with the good hair" (slang term describing white women) and the lyric didn't sit well with the rapper who thought it was racist. While we all turned up our noses at the comment, How to Get Away with Murder's Matt McGorry quickly clapped back at the rapper and schooled her on the actual meaning of the lyric.

McGorry has often analyzed and explained to his peers the struggles African Americans face and this time is no exception. In a time where people are quick to shout racism at any point, it's important to understand what is actually racism and what is not.

According to TMZ, the actor wasted no time putting Azalea back in her corner after her claims that Queen Bey was being racist. If you ask McGorry, there is no way Bey's comment could be racist because there is no such thing as reverse racism.

"I think there's no reverse racism," the actor tells TMZ. "I think that what seems like a lighthearted joke goes one way and is not necessarily lighthearted the other way."

The star begged to differ with Azalea's comment as he explained that stereotypes are not demeaning in either direction.

"I think Black women are stereotyped in such broad, sweeping strokes to begin with and that affects their lives on a daily basis," the actor tells TMZ. "White people, white women aren't subjected to that when it comes to the race issues. Women in general? Sure. But just as there's no such thing as reverse sexism, white people's lives are not, ultimately terribly affected other than their feelings hurt from being called racist."

It's nice to see a white man that is well versed on the sensitivity of racism and is equally woke on controversial topics.
