An OPEN LETTER TO GERALDO RIVERA: Come To Terms With Your Own Reverse Racism in the Form Of Projecting It Onto Hip Hop! Once Again GERALDO Blames Hip Hop (And This Time: KENDRICK LAMARs BET 2015 Performance) On Being A Problem – But See How One New Jersey Teacher Saw KENDRICK and Hip Hop As A Solution

African American’s or the subculture of hip hop haven’t the power or privilege to “be racist.”geraldo-rivera

As I state here (at the bottom of this write up where I began at “Let me tell you what say me”), whether interpersonal or institutional, “racism” is a/n action(s) against the lesser in power and privilege via systems above all.

But as far as I am concerned with you Geraldo, here’s the thing:

To avoid backlash and running the risk of not being “politically correct” by just not admitting your obvious fear and disdain for the subculture (of African Americans), I’m willing to bet you (obviously) have in mind ‘African Americans who promote and emote the subculture’ has done more damage than racism…to carefully place that as being your unpopular opinion, as, (for you) it is safer to reach into [the African American] race by jabbing at a widely popular subculture (with the “black and brown race”) that raps about/shines a light on/puts a magnifying glass on problems and situations having been played on the world stage.

Kendrick just rapped about those things on BET’s stage for the world.

But here’s the thing Geraldo:

The only thing Hip Hop (and Kendrick Lamar) is doing is telling their story and feelings about life’s situations in the form of rapping about their blues to rhythm no different a country artist puts his blues to rhythm and tells his story in the form of country music sir.

So, the bright side to your opinion about Hip Hop is that it is relative to the beholder e.g: you and your fretful, prejudiced subconscious (rather than it being a fact that Hip Hop is a problem).

Because to somebody else, that same rapper and his lyrics were called to the carpet of a high school classroom as a tool to help aide some students better understand world literature (as told from a Toni Morrison novel they were struggling to grasp).

Remember that struggle to grasp Shakespeare’s MacBeth seemed nearly impossible until one Cosby Show Thursday night Cockroach and Theo found a way to make it relatable—therefore: interesting enough to make them interested:

Well fast forward.
