Quentin Tarantino has been criticized for years over his constant use of the N-word in his films. With a new documentary titled QT8: The First Eight putting a spotlight on this particular controversy, Jackson, one of the director’s most frequent collaborators, is coming to his defense.

According to IndieWire, Jackson, who worked with Tarantino in the 2012 slavery drama Django Unchained, is outwardly criticizing those who point the finger at the famed director, claiming there is a clear double standard being practiced.
