Spike Lee Defends Woody Allen Against #MeToo Cancel Culture
Spike Lee has spoken out in defense of Woody Allen, explaining that he’s not a fan of the “cancel culture.”
In an interview with Len Berman and Michael Riedel on 710 WOR’s In The Morning, Spike said, “I’d just like to say Woody Allen is a great, great filmmaker and this cancel thing is not just Woody and when we look back on it we are going to see that — short of killing someone — you can’t just erase someone like they never existed. Woody is a friend of mine . . . and I know he’s going through it right now.”
As far as the recent protests, Spike added, “What is uplifting to me is that people are marching all over this god’s Earth for Black Lives Matter . . . There’s definitely something in the air . . . people come together, people want police reform, people want justice and I think we are in a special moment in the USA.”
