The repercussions of speaking out
Gabrielle Union spoke out against her costars and time on set filming America's Got Talent, saying that she faced many instances of racism. Her husband Dwayne Wade is now opening up and revealing their family is being watched.
NBC's Paul Telegdy apparently threatened Union for speaking out, and warned her to keep her mouth shut. Since then, Wade has supported the claims his wife has made.
Wade wrote on Twitter, "Y’all have deemed her a liar after months of trying to inform y’all of the issues in the work place and also make sure other employees of colour that comes after her won’t have the same experiences. Instead of looking thru the lens of someone who has been an advocate for the Black and Brown community, for women and for rape victims," he said.

“When these negotiations started my house started being watched and my family started being followed," he said.
"My daughter couldn’t even go to swim class without us being trailed by people looking for answers. Well y’all have the answers and y’all still don’t wanna listen to them.”
Union has been fighting with America's Got Talent for months, after claiming she got fired for speaking out against racism while on set.
