‘Law & Order’: Ice-T Says the Show Tried to Be ‘Fair’ With Black Representation
Stars of the “Law & Order” franchise have been vocal about recent news, and Ice-T, who plays Odafin Tutuola on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” is among the most outspoken.
Speaking Out Despite His Role
Ice-T didn’t hold back when addressing George Floyd’s death, tweeting on May 26, “They killed another brother… On video.” When a fan lamented the ongoing racial tensions, Ice-T’s response was poignant: “I agree with your last statement… But it’s NOT exhausting when it’s happening to you. That’s like me telling a woman to let women’s rights go. Unfortunately, there is a VERY serious racial problem in the US… Some of us live it.”
A New Spinoff and Controversy
Christopher Meloni, who portrayed Detective Stabler, is set to star in a new “Law & Order” spinoff. However, the show faced a shakeup when writer Craig Gore was fired for controversial Facebook posts about the Black Lives Matter protests. Gore posted a photo of himself holding a gun with the caption “Curfew…” and another message threatening violence against those interfering with his property. Producer Dick Wolf swiftly responded, telling Variety, “I will not tolerate this conduct, especially during our hour of national grief. I am terminating Craig Gore immediately.” Ice-T retweeted Wolf’s statement, adding, “Oh s h*t… The Big Boss is cleaning house… RESPECT.”
The Secret to Longevity
A Pandemic Pause
Like many productions, “Law & Order: SVU” halted filming due to the pandemic, with no clear date for resumption. The show’s commitment to fairness and representation remains a beacon, illustrating the complexities and challenges of real-life issues through its narratives.
