Burn banned

The event surrounding Grant’s killing — along with the current political, social and economical circumstances — served as an inspiration for the concept of this song and, eventually, the video. The family of Oscar Grant is featured in the clip, along with a fleet of artists that joined Killer Mike in his effort to deliver a strong and powerful message to his audience, including Diddy, Curren$y, The Cool Kids, Mistah Fab, and Filthy Rich who all make cameos.

Stranded: The stateless Haitians

"For many Haitians fleeing dictators and poverty at home and looking for work in the cane fields, the Dominican Republic has long been a refuge. However, possibly a million Haitians or people of Haitian ancestry are now being affected by the adoption of a new law concerning citizenship in the Dominican Republic. Many descendants of Haitian workers living in the Dominican Republic could face deportation to Haiti or be forced to live outside the law, with no legal status in the country.

...


Sonia Pierre, a Dominican human rights activist, says the changes in Dominican citizenship laws have made hundreds of thousands of Dominicans of Haitian descent, in effect, stateless. She points to a landmark international court decision in 2005 calling on the Dominican government to end its discrimination against this population. But the government did the opposite - it hardened its policies and began retroactively withdrawing citizenship from Dominicans of Haitian descent.

Claiming that it is only trying to "clean up" its civil registry rolls, the government now systematically refuses to issue identity documents to Dominicans of Haitian descent. Officials often deny these documents because someone has a Haitian-sounding last name or "looks" Haitian.

Sonia Pierre's organisation, the Movement of Dominican-Haitian Women (MUDHA), has documented thousands of cases where the government is systematically denying rights to Dominicans of Haitian ancestry. Those affected come from all walks of life - schoolteachers, lawyers, community organisers, doctors, entertainers, caregivers, students, and military officers. Now these people are in danger of becoming stateless in the country of their birth and residency." Read More

It all goes wrong at the :12 mark, right when she opens her mouth. Seriously, 4 Loko is not a high-end anything, so there’s no need to have it on a server’s dish.

Sup Son?!

"I was eating some breakfast in the break-room today. One of my Black coworkers, Tanya, walked past and said, “Hi.” In turn, I gave her a nod. A nod that was directed vertically, unlike the downward direction of the traditional nod. The Black Nod.



I didn’t even think twice about it, but apparently Tanya takes this code-switching thing to another level. She stopped abruptly when she saw the Black Nod, turned to look at me and said,

'Don’t be doing the Black Nod up in here.' " Read More

Oh You Comfy Huh?

"Somewhere under all those papers on that table is a reserved sign flipped over on it’s face. That’s right, these folks just waltzed right up into the reserved area and straight Deebo’d a table. Then I looked across the room and witnessed a late-middle aged White woman sit down at the birthday cake table. The cake said Happy Birthday on it and took up damn near half the table for fucks sake. Then a White guy walked past the wine selection in white socks and sandals.



...

This evidence would suggest that a good number of White people are simply… comfortable." Read More

Gucci Ice Cream Mane

"Gucci Mane has reappeared after his stint in a mental institution with a new tattoo---an ice cream cone on his face.

As previously reported, the 1017 Brick Squad member entered a special plea that he was “mentally incompetent” and unable to fight prosecutor's attempts to revoke his probation.

Since then he's been released and spotted at Atlanta's Tenth Street Tattoo shop with owner Shane Willoughby.

Tattoo shop worker Jason Murray posted the pictures to his Twitter account showing Gucci's etched face with three scoops of ice cream, the word “brrr” and a red lightning bolt." Read More
