This past weekend, a group of white nationalists, which included KKK members, Neo-nazis, and white supremacists, descended upon Charlottesville, Virginia. The reason? To take part in a “Unite The Right” march, spurred by the removal of local Confederate monuments, primarily the Robert E. Lee Statue in Emancipation Park.
It all began on Friday (August 11) evening when 100 participants marched on the University of Virginia campus, dropping pro-Nazi rhetoric and slogans such as “White Lives Matter” and “You will not replace us.” A brawl broke out with counter-protesters before police eventually dispersed the group.
On Saturday (August 12), things took a deadly turn. Following clashes between white nationalists and counter-protesters, 20-year-old James Fields allegedly drove his silver Dodge Challenger into a crowd of counter-protesters, injuring 19 and killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer. Fields was charged with second-degree murder following the incident, according to The Guardian.
Many in the Hip Hop world took to social media to condemn the rally and the vile movement it represents. Check out some of the response below.
A lot of misinformed people. Watch No Bullshit’s video on the incident.
Wow. The Killer Mike troll that has to have his 2 cents anything Killer Mike is featured in. I bet…that you’re a middle class white mom
What are you even talking about? This is the first KM post I’ve ever commented on.
White lives don’t matter!
go eat a dick
How does that get so much fire thats the most racist shit ive seen on this website. On a comment board talking about stopping racism and the great divide. Hypocritical as fuck.
You can’t be racist against white people lol
it didnt take hiphop long to share their misguided view on the world i see ,these people are all racist assholes the kkk, antifa, black lives matter, isis all racist assholes. but it has become fashionable to pick and choose who we want to blame because no one ever takes responcibility for them self. the only comment i agree with above is snoop’s the rest of these morons are spoon fed like children what cnn wants them to know but there all so “woke” its hard to be woke when the wool has been pulled over your eyes though
75% of the demonstrators against the white nationalists were white people. People need to open their eyes instead of making it like all white people are racist.
Free speech , let the kkk say what they want, let the rappers say things too, in the end it sways zero opinions. People are who they are and very rarely convert from one side to tha other. When do the zo2 BBB kicks drop all star weekend?
Ahh the Divide and Conquer (aka DNC) is working. The Trump hate makes no sense to me rappers just jumping on a bandwagon. Not condoning the white marchers but where was the outrage when ANTIFA and BLM were violent throghout the country? Nitpicking when you are angry because it suits your agenda is hypocritical.
This is false equivalent. Just look at the principles these groups stand for. BLM was a response to the history of inequality toward black people and how it continues to manifest today as police cruelty, prison industrial system and so on. And Antifa is literally anti-fascist. If we are democracy, we should ALL be Anti fascist!
This idea that people are “nitpicking” is ridiculous. This idea that people are responding with violence…just because? It is the response of desperation. When doing it “the right way” has made no difference. To be clear, violence should not be condoned, but what response is left when people are literally DYING? Maybe Jesus or Ghandi can turn the other cheek, but for the rest of us, we are simply human and will respond in kind to violence.
We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. While passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.
Wait til we finance
These people
You are killing our people by financing Isil/daesh
Promise you the table will turn
And why do black fight for the us army?
#Stockholmsyndrom#
They sound about as stupid as the people i see shutting down traffic interupting political get togethers in the name of black lives matter and screaming about black panthers the thing is the black supremacist shit the white supremacist shit needs to fucking stop we are equal the more 1 side screams it deserves more than the other will always create this situation
There’s nothing equal about white supremacy in America. This country was built off of that, it’s the reason Black Panthers existed in the first place, it was protection against police brutality and racial injustice in our communities. The same exact problem we still have, nothing’s changed…
Yep so wanna talk about something thats actualy happened in the past few decades or so? Only people i see victemize black people is them own damn selfs and around 1% or less of the white population who would be considered white supremacists now lets see how much % of people in black people have radical feelings towards white people? And considering white people are 65% of the U.S and black people are only 13% and im not just talking in your libtard cities either im talking actual REAL america if you checked over white people its less than 1% of us in the united states where as with black people its 20%+ of them who have radicalized supremacist feelings towards white people so again who needs to be checked? And at that riot didnt you notice how many more white people than anyone were standing in protest vs shouting about white supremacy? Seriously you peoppe need to wake the fuck up and put the victem mentality bullshit to rest if there will continue to be black lives matter rallies or hispanic livrs matter shit then get used to seeing more white supremacist activites cause they all go hand in hand so when your all ready to sit down like adults some positive change may actualy occur not these constant pissing contests of who suffered the most who had it the worst victem mentality cry baby bullshit
killer mike like always saying the dumbest shit possible, wishing slavery on other humans
We aren’t look for equality any more it’s payback. Sending white people as slaves would just be the beginning.
black people is so dumb and loud that i dont blame people for hating on them
The Fuck does that suppose to mean!!!!!! How can you make a statement and generalize black people as if its ok to apply that statement to everyone
you already sound loud by using !!!!!! and dumb
Troll. We don’t believe you. You are on a hip hop site so clearly you appreciate black culture to some degree. Guys, these losers just provoke upticks… ignore these guys.
who fuckin cares. people been killin people since the first time the action happened. same with hate, etc, etc, etc. no one is immortal. cant win forever playin russian roulette.
Just a thought if it was law ordered for all whites to take DNA ancestry test i wonder how many would then kill themselves??
Reason #57869 on why Killer Mike is a dumbass.
And the pic you people used describes it flawlessly a black person who put chains ON HIMSELF theyve been doing hat now for decades to themselfs enjoy
The person who wrote this article is a white vegetarian male feminist from Toronto. He should probably kill himself if wants to make the world a better place.
Riley Wallace is a shitty writer and probably an even shittier human being. The fact that he writes these articles for free instead of spending time with his family tells me what a selfish person he is. He should grow some balls and use his self-hate to kill himself.
Hating people for the color of their skin. Like they literally chose their skin color
This will never stop, as long as the human race has different skin tones and origins, people will always be more compassionate to the ones that look like them, talk like them etc.
I would appreciate those who upfront tell me that their racist and don’t like my kind instead of parading around like they care for me and behind my back plotting for my downfall.
To those of us who have compassion towards others that aren’t the same, keep spreading love and prosperity for all.
Just call it like it is man, I’ve lost hope for humanity when it comes to racial relations, we are not Born to hate, we learn to hate indirectly and directly.
I’m not trying to change anyone’s beliefs about me, they’ve been programmed to hate me regardless how much love I show them, people still are afraid of me in public because I’m a tall black man, I did not ask to be black, and would not change it for the world. I love being me even though it comes with it’s prejudice judgement.
This fairy tale where everyone loves each other and holds Hands singing Kumbaye will never happen. We have to accept it for what it is, no amount of talking, conferences, etc will not change the hate people have for each other of different races.
Killer Mike dropping science!
READ IT! UNDERSTAND IT! DIGEST IT! PASS IT ON TO YOUR NEIGHBOR!
A leader of one of Asia’s leading peoples in an interview addresses the current condition of black people, and why “blacks” are in their current position, and continue to hold the status they’ve held onto for years.
Asian Interviewer: “Can you address their concerns Mr.Chang?”
MR. CHANG: “The concerns of Black people? Yes I can. The fact is, that we all live under a system of White Supremacy. We Asian people look back at our long history of conflict with the European. We observe their strategies and develop our own, in response and in kind. There is no need for loud mass movements on our part, because we intend to overtake them in time, through action and personal sacrifice”.
Asian INTERVIEWER: “And the Black man?”
MR. CHANG: “He does not count into our situation. He is simply here. We do not hate the Black man. We just love the Asian man most. Real love–not cliche. We want to see Asian man happy, so we employ him. We eat together. We spend time with each other. We want his kids to be educated, so we invest in our own schools that offer our children the technical abilities to change the world’s power structure in our favor. We want to see the Asian man safe, so we purchase and organize our own communities. We want him to remain Asian, so we reduce the outside influence of others ideologies and cultures. While he fought to sniff behind the White man, the Black man has had the opportunity and every right in the world to do the same, but he chooses to indict people like me for not hiring him over my own brothers. For me to do this would be foolish and that would not be Asian love. In contrast, the Black man will fight for the right to be up under everyone else other than other Black people who he should feel the most love for. If our indifference to their situation make us racist, then what would you call the Black man’s indifference to his own situation?”
We didnt understand a friggin word. The problem is economics. When the economy goes down you blame others. The economy went down with taxes to keep the real killers fat and happy, politicians. We need to hang some politicians fast.
This is just sad.
its not said , its annoying and stupid
We black people need to go back to Africa. Repatriation like Sizzla says. Who’s goin wit me?
the never ending war , and the reason is that there’s a race which is a white one think they are different than other races , now or you are a dumb as fuck or stupid as fuck to think that your body or your brain is different than other , and the only thing that differentiate people from each other is Money and knowledge, a part from that there’s nothing
