Viola Davis' Queen Elizabeth post backfires
Viola Davis reacted to the news about Queen Elizabeth with sadness. In a now-deleted tweet, she wrote:

"Her Majesty dedicated her life to service to her country in the commonwealth with grace and with Grace has started and next journey. RIP Queen Elizabeth II."
The tweet was not well received by fans choosing not to mourn the British monarch because she reigned over a nation that committed many crimes through colonialism. Viola Davis' fanbase did not appreciate seeing their fave pay her respects to Queen Elizabeth. This is especially in light of the fact that Viola will star in The Woman King, a movie about a female-led African army that fought against colonial forces.

"Viola Davis deleted the tweet saying rest in peace to the Queen . I’m glad auntie came to her senses cause stuff that lady."
@Tealmooss commented:
"Viola Davis deleted her sympathetic posts both on Twitter and Instagram, we won. She's black again."
@Viniceo commented:
"Viola deleted that Tweet because of social justice warriors of the internet, who have never done anything to dismantle systems of inequality other than hitting “send” on a post?"
@poeticsoul_l commented:
"Y'all really made Viola Davis delete her posts about Queen Elizabeth? Black Twitter is savage."
