Racism over? Yeah, right.
In 2005, after the tragic deaths of tens of thounsands of people in Southeast Asia, the people at Hot 97 radio had the nerve to record a song making FUN of asians. Not just Asians, the Asians that actually died during this tragedy:
Skip to 4:00 on the time scroll bar. But if you want to get the FULL depth of how racist this MC is, listen to the whole thing. She won’t even let her Asian guests talk.
There’s was a FURY of responses from the Asian community, but by far the best one is from the Asian American rapper Jin:
So did Hot 97 respond to this by firing the MC that recorded + played this fucked up racist song? Pssh. Nope. She was let go for a while, then Hot 97 re-hired her. When was she fired? IN 2008!!!!
I share Mr.Obama’s vision of unity, but I do not agree that we will be one. We will never be one. We need to celebrate diversity instead of trying to be a nation of mutts. But asshole like this make it hard to believe that Obama’s or any other vision of getting along will EVER become a reality.
