迈克•泰森(Mike Tyson)呼吁Hulu抵制《铁人麦克》(Iron Mike)系列




拳坛传奇人物迈克·泰森呼吁抵制Hulu，此前该流媒体服务于周四宣布了一部未经授权的、关于这位前重量级拳王的八集迷你剧《铁人迈克》。

导演克雷格·吉莱斯皮(Craig Gillespie)、编剧史蒂文·罗杰斯(Steven Rogers)和制片人玛格特·罗比(Margot Robbie)将领衔该片，他们是2017年电影《我，托尼娅》(I, Tonya)的制作团队。泰森在Instagram上指责Hulu不仅是“文化挪用”，还“窃取了一名黑人运动员的故事”。他还揶揄了一个竞争对手的授权项目来对抗Hulu。

泰森说，Hulu的宣布尤其令人震惊，因为它是在黑人历史月发布的。他还声称，近几个月来，媒体报道和公共话语中种族和社会不平等的问题越来越明显，这是一种“音盲”。

以下是泰森对Hulu的声明的完整说明:

Hulu宣布在未经授权的情况下拍摄一部关于泰森故事的迷你剧，并且没有给予报酬，虽然很不幸，但这并不令人意外。这一声明紧随我国社会不平等现象之后，是Hulu的企业贪婪如何导致泰森生活故事的这种盲目文化挪用的一个典型例子。在黑人历史月期间宣布这一消息，只能证实Hulu对尊重黑人故事权利的关注。

“好莱坞需要对黑人的经历更加敏感，尤其是在2020年发生了这一切之后。真正的麦克·泰森授权故事正在开发中，将在未来几天公布。Hulu在“黑人历史月”宣布窃取黑人运动员的故事，实在是太不合适了。#抵制Hulu #公司同意Hulu的这些行动只是冰山一角。我们不应该对这些可恶的行为感到惊讶，因为它们代表着系统性的种族主义，这种种族主义一直困扰着好莱坞。

这些公司巨头躲在剧本后面，称赞自己在多样性和包容性方面做出了音盲式的尝试，比如Hulu的“黑人故事”(Black Stories)播放列表，向应用上的观众推荐有关黑人文化的故事。然而，在紧闭的门背后，他们窃取了黑人社区的故事。



Boxing legend Mike Tyson has called for a boycott of Hulu after the streaming service on Thursday announced an unauthorized, eight-episode miniseries about the former heavyweight champ, titled “Iron Mike.”


Director Craig Gillespie, writer Steven Rogers and producer Margot Robbie — the team behind the 2017 film “I, Tonya” — will lead the project. Tyson on Instagram accused Hulu not only of “cultural misappropriation” but also of “stealing a black athlete’s story.” He also teased a rival, authorized project to counter Hulu’s.


Tyson said Hulu’s announcement is particularly egregious, considering that it came during Black History Month. He also claimed it to be “tone-deaf” after recent months during which issues of racial and social disparity have been more pronounced in media coverage and public discourse.


Below are Tyson’s full statements on Hulu’s announcement:


“Hulu’s announcement to do an unauthorized mini-series of the Tyson story without compensation, although unfortunate, isn’t surprising. This announcement on the heels of social disparities in our country is a prime example of how Hulu’s corporate greed led to this tone-deaf cultural misappropriation of the Tyson life story. To make this announcement during Black History Month only confirms Hulu’s concern for dollars over respect for black story rights.


“Hollywood needs to be more sensitive to black experiences especially after all that has transpired in 2020. The real Mike Tyson authorized story is in development and will be announced in coming days. Hulu to announce stealing a black athletes (sic) story during Black History month couldn’t be more inappropriate or tone deaf. #boycotthulu #corporategreed These actions taken by Hulu are just the tip of the iceberg. We shouldn’t be surprised by these abhorrent actions as they represent the systemic racism that has plagued Hollywood for its entire existence.


“These corporate giants hide behind plays and praise themselves for offering tone-deaf attempts at diversity and inclusion like Hulu’s “Black Stories” playlist that recommends stories about Black culture to viewers on the app. Yet behind closed doors they steal stories from the Black community. #BoycottHulu”

拳灭
