[I Really Mean It]

I agree wholeheartedly with the bolded.

After reading the second part of your post, another question has suddenly come to my mind - does the average black person see what is referred to here as 'c00ning' as a mental illness?

Didn't James Baldwin make the statement about being perpetually enraged as a direct result of being black in this country?

Is rage an emotion the body can sustain indefinitely without some kind of consequence to the mind, body and spirit? This is not a rhetorical question; I'm really asking. Maybe there are some medical professionals on here who can speak to this point. This is something I have thought about often though.

Anyway, if some people develop into 'c00ns', are they sick? And if they are sick, how do we support and help them? There are some black folks somewhere right now, raising their baby in a way that will make them likely to be 'c00ns'. The child is not at fault, but as an adult, that person will then need to change. Will we be willing to help this person or should s/he just be considered collateral damage? I guess a simpler question is, how do we deal with 'c00ns'?

I realize this has nothing to do with Ms. Michelle specifically, but your comment really gave me some food for thought, so thanks!

To me, the difference between what Chrisette Michele did and your average white-washed c00n acculturated in an environment free of positive black consciousness is that there was never any past indication that she would stoop so low - and debase not just herself, but the black community - by singing at the inauguration of an unadulterated white supremacist. That means she saw an opportunity to throw black people under the bus for a plate of butter biscuits. Someone like that is worse than your average c00n asleep in the Matrix; she's a traitor.

I really want to make fun of her, but she may go off the deep end with all these jokes.

She tap danced for that check, now she singing over cliched church organs talmbout black lives matter? Pandering ain’t gonna work in this case

Fam disowned her, Trump snubbed her, label dropped her, now she scrambling

You made your decision

 

[Flawdaboi]

God bless her heart, she really trying to come back home

But black people have been allowed to "come back HOME" for much worse....

 

[MustafaSTL]

She does not come off as being genuine by dropping some obviously "trying to get my fans back" song with a BLM title. Does she have any BLM type of songs from her past albums or anything? I just did a quick search through her discography and all I see are your typical soul/love ballad type of songs. Trying to gain black fans back with some BLM title will not show she is genuine, and will actually turn people off even more. She's trying too hard dropping these songs and going on the Breakfast Club trying to cop pleas. If she is genuine, everyone will be able to see it eventually. But nobody will see it when it looks so forced as it does now.

then go save her

 

[Buckeye Fever]

Her music before all of this shyt was so dope. It's sad how much of her reputation was tainted over the bullshyt. She actually is talented. But oh well.

Mr. Radio

 

[FlimFlam]

Her name probably bigger than its ever been right now...time to sit down wit some marketing folks to try to milk these steam (albeit negative) for whatever its worth...

It may not necessarily even have to be on some c00ning shyt either

then go save her

This response is absolutely perfect

Hold this rep

 

[Buckeye Fever]

Crazy how we so hard on our own....i don' listen to her music anyway, but she apologized and explained why she did it I felt it was genuine....

Black ppl forgave Eminem for them racist tapes, even hopped on his dikk again for his diss to Trump a month or 2 ago
