I respect Sean Combs as an entrepreneur and contributor to the culture of hip hop. But, he’s always struck me as disingenuous. Him and so many black elites conveniently latch on to stories like the one from Minnesota.
These are the same people who turn around and tell you to vote Democrat JUST BECAUSE. Democrats/Liberals are the equally as racist as Republicans/Conservatives. The only difference is instead of calling you the n word, they call the police on you.
Putting the onus on black celebs/elites to fix racism and inequality in America is unfair. But, at the very least, I think it’s time we acknowledge that they’re part of the problem. To truly shake the table they have to put the money at risk and it’s evident they’re unwilling.
