There's a singer named "Jay-Z" who's dating that Beyonce singer (and makeup model) who just came out today saying that he agrees with Kanye West (sp) another singer who is best noted for his recent angry remarks that President Bush 'does not care about black people'. He cites 'free speech' in America. Okay, fine. I can deal with free speech - it's what Jay-Z (not his real name, of course) said after that.
Jay-Z says that he's getting together with "Diddy" - another guy that can't use his real name apparently - to start a relief fund for future acts of nature - ONLY FOR AFRICAN AMERICANS.
What?
The radio personalities who were discussing this on their news segment wrapped it up nicely saying "oh, well, so if there's a poor or displaced white guy next to the black guy, well, we haven't learned anything from history - so pass him up."
We're trying to get rid of racism, folks, not help it along!
Boy, I'm hoping the angry folks who are spouting this kind of stuff off cool off soon and read up on MLK or the latter teachings of Malcolm X. Or, here's an idea, pick up a Bible and read what Christ says about how we are to treat one another.
Lord have mercy on us in these strange times!
