@phillewis_: Tourette’s campaigner John Davidson shouted the N-word while Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were on stage at the BAFTA Film Awards Host Alan Cumming thanked the audience for their understanding after several outbursts throughout the event (via Variety) #michaelbjordan #delroylindo #sinners #tourettes #tourettesawareness
As a black person Im disappointed on the comments, he has a disability and a condition he cannot control.

It’s so disturbing at how many people don’t know what Tourette’s is and how uncontrollable it is regardless of the context

So it was only stated once. When two black presenters were on stage. Conveniently when it’s dead silent. Between applause and lines. Right…. Right

I'm more concerned about the fact that, despite the awards being edited, this slur was not edited out at all.

Doesn’t matter if it’s Tourette’s or not, an apology needs to be issued.

I am so livid with these comments! I watch my daughter go through hell with having Tourette’s. It’s hard enough without others shaming and judging her which she faces on a daily basis. Put yourself in their shoes!

All the comments just show the need for this film, to educate people, John did not shout this out to be racist, go watch the film, go watch how it is to live with tourettes, stop making it all about race 😕

Blaming someone for involuntary tics is like getting angry at someone for sneezing or blinking.it’s not a choice.

As someone with diagnosed tourette's I'm genuinely disgusted by the way people are reacting to this - you truly can't help it. Everyone's experience with it is different, but from my personal experience, I have no warning for when I'm about to have a vocal tic. I'm happy to educate anyone that has any questions because I'd love for people to actually educate themselves on the disorder before spreading hate ❤️
