Neither Will Smith nor Willow Smith have reacted to the following though netizens were surely left angered with Shane's revelations and his old offensive videos have now resurfaced on social media. In his apology video, he said, "‘I made a video six years ago talking about it and I gave excuses, I knew it was wrong, I knew I never wanted to do it again, but I didn’t do the work.
