    The year was 1989, another summer, and Public Enemy‘s Chuck D rapped the now iconic hip-hop anthem “Fight The Power” as part of the soundtrack to Spike Lee’s legendary film, Do The Right Thing. That PE track included the immortal lines, “Elvis was a hero to most but he never meant shit to me because he’s straight out racist. The sucker was simple and plain,” — to which, without missing a beat, Flava Flav added, “Motherf**k him and John Wayne!” This was 30 years ago.

    And because I take Black musical and lyrical offerings seriously, I’m not surprised nor moved by John Wayne’s quotes because Public Enemy already told me to reject this sentimental white icon because he was not for me. Simple and plain. Hip-hop served as both entertainment and enlightenment, both my blueprint to the cool and the pedagogy that helped craft my dissonant, critical position with the mainstream. Because my brothers in Public Enemy challenged and implored that I reject these white symbols before I grow attached to something that hates me, which births a whole other type of deeply troubled Black adult that crafted their identity from white supremacist media and culture.

    another idiot...you talk about flava flav




    Chuck dismissed the idea that Flav being fired had anything to do with Sen. Bernie Sanders, “It’s not about BERNIE with Flav... he don’t know the difference between BarrySanders or BernieSanders he don’t know either. FLAV refused to support @Sankofa after @harrybelafonte inducted us."

              flava flav fired from public enemy

              “I’m not really the politician of the group,” Flav reportedly began, adding: “There’s a lot of people talking a lot of shit about Trump, but guess what? He’s winning. The man is winning. I ain’t gonna lie, but listen, the United States has been ran a certain way for decades and decades and decades. You never know: Maybe Trump could possibly do something. Maybe he might step in office and do something. I’m not going to doubt him.”

                          Tear everything down. Rename everything. Every statue is racist. Every white policeman is racist. Evey white person is bad.

                          Let's tear it all down tomorrow. The day after we tear it all down most blacks will be in the same postion they where 10 years ago.

                          I have a novel ideal. Get off your ass and work hard and stop making excuses for you being a failure.

                          Next!

                              I'm not gonna to defend Obama but it's not like Trump is exactly uniting the country. Guy has ZERO tact. China brought him to his knees.

                                      Serious question............since you take black musical lyrics seriously and are enlightened and entertained by that music, are you enlightened or entertained by their filthy degradation of women, also? Just wondering, seriously.

                                          Coincidentally FDR, then Naval Secretary, was the chief negotiator in his absence along w Homes. Same sentiment.

                                          Gonna tear down FDR/ WILSON stuff as well?

                                                "If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that." -Abraham Lincoln.

                                                Lincoln would have happily left slavery alone if it meant the union didn't break up. Guess we gotta remove his statues and monuments too.

                                                    John Wayne has to go. I'm not aware of any channel that shows his racist movies. Always out to kill the Indians like they did something to him. And he never gets killed by Indians in his movies. Like the Indians wouldn't have a bounty for his head.

                                                      State of Mississippi legislature passes bill to ditch their Confederate themed State flag.

And in general commercials,the white guy, if in them at all, is always the buffoon, unless it is a smaller ad for local owned company, etc. Good topic for a thread, IMO. Maybe it is time to start a boycott of some of these companies. Perhaps some of us are tired as being portrayed in that light
