Donald Trump responded to Spike Lee for his Oscar critics and accused him of being "racist"

President Donald Trump accused the filmmaker Spike Lee, who won Sunday's Oscar for best screenplay adapted for his film "BlacKkKlansman", being "racist" against him in the speech he delivered after receiving the award.

The director urged that people be "right of the story"before presidential elections in the United States next year, with a speech prepared for the occasion.

The message, which strongly claims the White House, has not been well received by the president. "It would be nice if Spike could read his notes, or better yet, not have to use them at all, when he was using a racist tone against the president, who did more for African Americans than almost all presidents .Trump said on his Twitter account.

The president pointed out that as part of his tenure, a US criminal justice reform had been approved, that "the lowest unemployment rate" in the history of the African-American community had been registered and that a major tax reform had been applied.

After discussing the history of African-American slavery and the situation in which his own family lived, Lee adopted a more political tone. "The 2020 presidential election is fast approaching. Let's be on the bright side of history. Let's make the moral choice of love against hateLee said without explicitly mentioning Trump, who took it for granted.

"Let's do the right thing! "," Concluded the filmmaker in reference to "Do The Right Thing", the original title of one of his most famous films.

Lee, who won the award with Charlie Wachtel, David Rabinowitz and Kevin Willmott, won one of the biggest ovations of the evening.

However, it was not the only moment with Lee. At the height of the ceremony, when the Best Film Award was announced, he was very unhappy with the Green Paper.

According to the American press, he stopped and walked down the hall to leave, but was held at the door and decided to return to his location. When he was consulted on the subject at the press conference, he took it with humor and drank from his glbad, but did not answer.

After the insistence of the press, he remained on a joking tone and characterized the jury's vote as "bad decision of arbitration".

The filmmaker, well known for being a leading African American rights activist, also drew attention to the red carpet of the wardrobe with which he paid tribute to "Do The Right Thing" and the late Prince musician.

Lee brought to the gala a few rings with the words "hate" and "love" (love), just like the character of the actor Bill Nunn in the movie "Do The Right Thing".

Although Lee never took a statuette before yesterday, the director of other films like "25th Hour" (2002) had earned an Academy Award for his brilliant career. .
