When asked what he felt about British natives playing black experiences in Hollywood, actor Daniel Kaluuya, responded by saying that he respected and listened to the critics.

However, he added to also view the issue of British natives taking on black American roles as a form of unity across the "diaspora". Furthermore, he added that all black people face racism across the western world and pointed out why we should "stand together"Daniel Kaluuya is famously known for starring in the hit film "Get out" - a wildly successful film by black director; Jordan Peele.

However, a question first introduced by Samuel L. Jackson in a recent interview with New York's Hot 97 radio station, now lingers over the film; and Kaluuya's part in it.

"There are a lot of black British actors in these movies," Jackson said.He also added that people have been dating interracially in Britain for more than a century now which wasn't the case for America. "I tend to wonder what Get Out would have been with an American brother who really feels that", he added.

A question of the American experience

Over the years, it has become a contentious issue that British natives are increasingly taking up African-American roles in Hollywood. While some think it's alright for these actors to take on such roles, others feel that black Britsh actors do not have the right heritage to take on such roles.

Earlier, in an interview with GQ magazine, Daniel explained: "Sometimes I hear at an audition that they're trying to go 'ethnic'. You're getting singled out for the colour of your skin, but not the content of your spirit, and that's everywhere. That's my whole life;' being seen as "other".

Not fitting in, in Uganda, not Britain, not America. They just highlight whatever feature they want".Daniel has so far starred in various black roles and although it has raised concern among some Americans, he maintains that playing such roles for him is a display of unity across the black diaspora.
