Seeing yt people going to bat for that black lady whose dog was killed by police. A lot of them are donating to her go-fund me. I’m not mad at all but it’s like damn.
Saints are trying out UFL kicking standout Tanner Brown, who made two from 60-plus in the same game earlier this month (something no NFL kicker has ever done).
He made about 90% of his field goals throughout the UFL season.
🚨 The ladies of Point Of View Daily Show on Afro TV weighed in on Jay-Z’s recent Target partnership and didn’t hold back in their critique.
🧐 They argue the move reflects a broader pattern they believe has followed Jay-Z throughout his career: choosing business partnerships over public principle, especially in moments tied to Black cultural issues.
Their commentary pointed to several past flashpoints including his business split with Dame Dash, his stance during the Colin Kaepernick/NFL controversy, and now his collaboration with Target amid ongoing boycott conversations within parts of the Black community.
🗣️ Their take:
“Jay-Z has consistently shown us, time after time, that for him it’s going to be partnership over principle.”
👀 They also raised a larger cultural concern that many iconic figures are often elevated as community leaders, but ultimately prioritize personal gain, legacy building and corporate alignment over collective advocacy when tensions arise.
In their view, the frustration isn’t just about one deal it’s about expectations placed on cultural icons, and whether those expectations are being met when it matters most.
The discussion continues to split opinion:
Is this simply strategic business at the highest level… or a pattern that reflects deeper disconnect between influence, power, and community responsibility?
