I recently posted some commentary on social media, but unfortunately, my opinions may have offended some people I respect and admire

For as long as the government has kept track, the economic statistics have shown a troubling racial gap. Black people are twice as likely as white people to be out of work and looking for a job.

The people who own the media are the same people who own private prisons, the EXACT same people, and using one to promote the other is (or “would be,” depending on your analysis) very lucrative.

IBM, Boeing, Revlon, Microsoft and Dell are just a few of the companies that have operations inside state prisons.

Time and time again, the real decision makers get away with murder while rap artists are projected as the embodiment of everything that is wrong with Hip Hop and young Black males.
