The deep dive into Shaun King and the North Star/other ventures I& #39;ve been waiting for: "Seven former employees of The North Star said the issue was less King’s over-ambition than his absenteeism, insistence on absolute control, and radical incompetence." https://www.thedailybeast.com/shaun-king-keeps-raising-money-and-questions-about-where-it-goes-3?ref=scroll">https://www.thedailybeast.com/shaun-kin...
"While it should be noted that no criminal or civil charges have ever been filed against King, the story—in the words of former employees of The North Star—was one of “self sabotage” by him, and “really shady fucking business” with “a liar & a fraud.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/shaun-king-keeps-raising-money-and-questions-about-where-it-goes-3?ref=scroll">https://www.thedailybeast.com/shaun-kin...
I had completely forgotten about this: "King made headlines when he misidentified the killer of Jazmine Barnes...the man King wrongly identified reportedly committed suicide in his cell several months later, after he had been jailed on unrelated charges." https://www.thedailybeast.com/shaun-king-keeps-raising-money-and-questions-about-where-it-goes">https://www.thedailybeast.com/shaun-kin...
Quite a quote from @AngryBlackLady: "There are also white liberals who want someone or something they can give their money to...He makes white folk feel safe because he doesn& #39;t ask anything of them besides giving money—he sells wokeness to white people.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/shaun-king-keeps-raising-money-and-questions-about-where-it-goes">https://www.thedailybeast.com/shaun-kin...
