Please, readers, go check out our friend Alvin’s response to Alveda King’s disgusting words over the past few days. It’s all wonderful, but this little passage right here deserves to be highlighted:
And between me and you, from one African-American to another, I would like personally like to know just what constitutes you as a genuine leader in the black community?
To my knowledge, no one has taken the initiative to ask you that question, so I would like to. Do you really think that your relationship to one of the greatest American leaders of the 20th century makes you a leader?
I don’t think so. On my father’s side of my family, I am a distant cousin to the rapper Lil Bow Wow, but at no time have I rushed to a record company demanding a contract.
DAMN! That sudden burning sensation you’re all feeling is called “backdraft.”
Read it all.
