Rick Chow shot someone’s car up in 2015 over boiled peanuts & some bud lights. then he shot someone in 2018 over $6.49 oven cleaner. Like what are we even talking about? He’s a fucking maniac #Justice4CyrusBelton
Michael Jackson had to sell actual physical copies to people who left their houses (no bots, playlists, streaming platforms etc).
Songs like this one will be forgotten in 2/3 weeks. He can have all the #1s but he'll never touch even the 0.01% of MJ's impact, for sure.
Anyways:
Naomi Osaka on why she chose to host a party for the black tennis players:
“You know I'm seeing a little bit of-
‘Why can't you love everyone for all skin tones?’ and ‘what if someone had an all white party?! First of all I do love everyone for who they are no matter their race + ethnicity, (I'm literally half Japanese lol). I can only speak from my experiences in my own life though, growing up as a tennis player I didn't see many people that looked like ME and I feel like it's important to celebrate them.
Secondly I feel like it's important to note that there have been all white dinners/parties. I don't know how else to tell you this, I literally seen them all the time and never had an issue with it at all. To the people who ask this question I want to ask you this question too, ‘What is it about POC getting together that unsettles you so much?’
I want to end this by saying I grew up watching my dad get discriminated against, having the cops called on him multiple times at the tennis court. There are multiple things I will apologize for in my life but celebrating being black and appreciating who we are will never be something I would consider saying sorry for. Thanks.
Actually I lied, I am sorry. I'm sorry for the people who cannot comprehend in their brains that this is not about exclusion, this is a celebration about how far we have come 🖤”

Keep posting this so people don’t forget how truly bad this event was.
Don’t let people gaslight you into thinking it was peaceful and worthy of 1500+ pardons and slush fund payoffs.
When this nation can create billion dollar funds for political allies and supporters, but still will not address reparations for the descendants of slaves, that is not incapacity. That is choice.
America is capable of repair. It has yet to choose justice.
#Reparations
When a white male elected official stands in front of a podium and calmly says he hopes the Supreme Court overturns the 14th Amendment,
(The 14th Amendment was passed after slavery to guarantee Black people citizenship and equal protection under the law in America.)
It’s full fucking stop. Period.
Fuck the Met Gala.
Fuck relationship podcasts.
Fuck the NBA playoffs.
Fuck the summer.
Fuck spending money.
Fuck all this shit.
It’s time to shut this shit the fuck down.
Credit scores were used to deny loans; the bar exam was used to prevent blacks from becoming attorneys; marriage licenses were used to stop interracial marriage; college was free until black people were allowed to go to college; free health was halted to not include blacks,
Rape victim k!lled her rapist after his release.
She got arrested and her statement was -
“He raped me, not the State. Who gave you the right to forgive him without consulting me?”

If you slur 1/2 of that equation you go to jail for a federal offense
If you slur the other side, you get praise from the Pres, a cabinet position & a cushy govt pension
America is a merde sandwich, founded on lies & the subjugation of others
