By now you have heard about Confederate, the ill-ad- vised, wildly-panned before it has even aired, and heavily-de- nounced HBO show that is the brainchild of Game of Thrones creators.
While Game of Thrones has a legion of diehard fans, the show's creators, David Be- nioff and D.B. Weiss, aren't getting a lot of love for their next HBO series, Confederate.
The proposed show -- which will take place in an al- ternate timeline where the American South won the Civil War and will depict dramati- zations of slavery in modern
day -- faced immediate criti- cism when it was announced last week, and was the target of a social media protest on Sunday, to coincide with the latest episode of Games of Thrones.
"#NoConfederate" became a trending topic even before the new GoT episode aired on the East Coast, and continued to garner support and gener- ate tweets throughout the evening. April Reign, who previously spearheaded the "#OscarsSoWhite" protest, is one of the activists who helped organize Sunday's Twitter movement.

Loretta Devine, Elise And Deon Cole To Star
Tinashe wins with the law: the singer was granted a restraining order recently against an obsessive fan.
According to the celebrity news website, the 24-year-old singer filed the order against a fan named Martin Mur- phy who, according to docu- ments filed by the singer’s lawyers, became obsessed with Tinashe to the point of
believing he was married to her.
Adding more fuel against Murphy’s case, his father reportedly also believes his son is endangering Tinashe’s life; he said his son “suffered a psychotic break and is unable to dis- tinguish reality from fan- tasy.”
