Brie Larson Declares Mace Windu’s Lightsaber Off Limits To White Men
During a recent press junket for Captain Marvel, Brie Larson made yet another controversial statement directed at white males. The outspoken progressive recounted the day her co-star Samuel L. Jackson brought his lightsaber to the set. At first, Larson was overjoyed to be holding the elegant weapon of Jedi master Mace Windu as seen in the Star Wars prequels. While handling the iconic blade, however, Larson experienced an “awokening” as she described it.
“I felt the pain and suffering of thousands of oppressed force sensitives throughout the galaxy. It was overwhelming. I saw terrible visions of white males hunting down aliens, women, and Jedi of color.”
The Oscar-winning star was consoled by Jackson, who had meant for the moment to be fun and trauma-free, especially since it was Star Wars Day, May 4th. According to Larson, fan-made holiday or not, from that day forward no one was allowed to smile in the presence of Mace Windu’s lightsaber — not even Jackson.
Furthermore, Larson spoke to Disney who have agreed to outlaw white men from ever wielding the blade on film sets, in conventions, or any studio prop tours.
“Jedi of color do not need white men tainting their laser swords. Please, let’s just not do that. Haven’t they ruined enough things with their grubby racist hands as it is? Hello, Anakin Skywalker. Hello, Emperor creepy white guy. To live life as a lightsaber owned by a Jedi of color or a Jedi that identifies as female is to live life on the defense. I stand with the blades of Mace Windu, Ahsoka Tano, Kit Fisto, Aayla Secura, Plo Kloon, Yoda, Yaddle, and Agen Kolar.”
Despite her strong feelings about Windu’s lightsaber, Larson is remaind very keen on Star Wars.
“I’d love to be a Jedi for a female director with a female-led cast and crew some day. That would be so cool. I’m so ready!”
