8:27Now PlayingIn this excerpt from the latest NIGHT SCHOOL episode, Marc Lamont Hill breaks down the explosive $260 million lawsuit filed against Tyler Perry by Derrick Dixon, a rising Black actor best known for his role in Perry’s hit series The Oval. Dixon accuses the media mogul of sexual assault, harassment, manipulation, and retaliation.
Dixon claims Perry used his power and fame to groom him with promises of stardom, then groped and violated him repeatedly at home and on set. The lawsuit includes alleged threats, unsolicited touching, and text receipts. Perry’s legal team calls it all a “shakedown,” but the case is only heating up.
Marc unpacks the dangerous power dynamics, the cultural silence around Black male victims, and why homophobia and celebrity worship make this case even harder to untangle.
