Obviously, the common point is that Sam wouldn’t bad mouth Tarantino because they worked together many times, so I wanted to instead focus on the discourse around it. Specifically, the fact that a lot of white Tarantino fans will say things like “Sam Jackson said it’s okay. Therefore, it’s okay” or reference the interview where Sam says that Tarantino’s not racist because the black characters in his movies are always the coolest or smartest characters in the cast.

On a separate note, Sam has suggested that the idea of Tarantino being a white director overshadowing black directors is a non-issue because what matters is that these stories get told. But then fast forward to 2025, and one of the main points made against Sinners is that it’s a rip-off of From Dusk Til Dawn (a movie that Tarantino wrote, produced, and starred in).
