According to actress Stacey Dash, her political commentary and resulting fallout has resulted in relationships with both friends and family members being compromised. Dash revealed that she no longer speaks with her brother, Darien Dash or her cousin Damon Dash, co-founder of Roc-A-Fella Records.
During an interview with Net-A-Porter.com, she shared that both Darien and Damon, who she referred to as role models, advised her not to share her political thoughts publicly.
“My family and I have not spoken,” Stacey Dash said. “My cousin Damon and my brother [Darien, CEO of DME Interactive Holdings] were role models to me because they were great capitalists. Now we’re not really talking because they were the ones who told me to keep my mouth shut. They felt that I should do certain things because I’m black. Certain friends don’t speak to me any more either.”
Despite no longer speaking with select family and friends, the former Clueless star revealed that people have applauded her for voicing her opinion. She also declared that she hasn’t seen this country “so divided since the Civil Rights Movement.”
“But you know what? In the street I get [approached by] so many people of every color saying: ‘Thank you so much for standing up and being so brave,’” the actress said. “I thought it was time to have a black president and that it would unite us in such a profound way. But as a country, I don’t think we’ve been so divided since the Civil Rights Movement. I mean, isn’t it extraordinary that we are even discussing race in 2014?””
Prior to their falling out, Stacey and Dame Dash appeared to have a cordial relationship with another. In 2004, Stacey Dash was featured in the music video to Roc-A-Fella-Records artist Kanye West’s “All Falls Down.”
This is what REPUBLICANS wanted. And they got it. All that negative energy toward the President stirred the pot. History will show.
Nah they all failed this week when he restored relations with Cuba, Republicans are salty as fuck because of that, especially the ones in S. Florida
on one hand, it’s sad that a family won’t speak with each other because of political opinions.
On another….how the fuck can she stand by this party after seeing how people like Ted Nugent, Bill O’Rielly, Sean Hannity, Sarah Palin, etc. etc. etc. act?
oh shit this the girl from clueless? she was a bad bitch! way sexier than the white hoe that starred in it. she still lookin fine in that pic.
Who would have ever thought that a half-white president could stir up so much hatred and animosity from people with white colored skin? I Did.
All this white rage that you are seeing is nothing new the same rage was on display during the equal rights movement when whites assassinated Black leaders and bombed Black churches.
The white race is losing its grip on global white supremacy as the world is evolving and their population numbers are dwindling while the population of non-whites is growing.
Asian, African, and Arab nations are rising economically and asserting themselves and battling the forces of Europeon imperialism and the white race is responding with fear, hatred and violence, this is nothing new if you study history.
Stacy Dash has been married to three different white males so her identity as a Black woman is
white-washed and nonexistent, her opinions and political leanings would mirror white males like Hannity, O’Reily and Limbuagh not Black males like Michael Eric Dyson, Umar Johnson and Chuck D.
yer kookin it bruh bruh
*pink colored. Their skin is not white.
This “white supremacy” you refer to is a falacy made up by DWL’s and liberal blacks to make blacks feel better about black disfunction. Please tell me more how countries like Liberia, The Congo and Sierra Leone’s economies are going to surpass the US. People there have an average IQ of 65, live in mud huts and crap in their drinking water. I guess your liberal ideology helps you feel better about your existance.
DANIELLE HARLING PLEASE GO KILL YOURSELF ASAP. THANKS!
You need therapy…check yourself in immediately.
Did you get anything accomplished with that statement to the author of this piece, other than expose how much of a low life you wish to be per your advice? Are you eating bathsalts and suggesting that being a “Comment Zombie” is a better way to be?
If you claim to agree with 100% of what either party does and supposedly stands for than you’re just a sheep, it’s not that simple. Plus, Dame Dash needs to worry about his own “rep” and quit acting like he’s in his early 20’s
damn dame cant even get his own family to like him and stay on his side
that broke humbleness slap a mf like tina turner
This bitch could join the KKK and I’d still fuck the shit outta her. Then I’d try to fuck some sense into her as well.
Eventually, she’ll end up like Herman Cain, Michael Steele, Colin Powell, and other Black Republicans. Be reppin so hard for them, get used up, and then thrown out like trash. She’s the definition of a bed wench.
Stacy Dash is the most white washed black person I’ve ever seen…She bleaches her skin to look lighter, she has 3 white ex husbands, she cut ties to all her black family and she works for fox news and only votes republican, despite knowing nothing about politics. She must have had some shitty parents for her to come out this way. I’m not impressed
Stacey Dash is mixed and she obviously doesn’t bleach her skin. Racist pos
And blacks continue to be outraged at the wrong party. Black Republicans are people who left the plantation.
No, “black republicans” simply chose a DIFFERENT plantation.
I thought she was fine too until I saw her naked in a movie called Lady Blue or some shit where she has a sex scene. Her titties and body weren’t as impressive as it looked in the clothes. I been off her as a bad bitch since seeing that. Track that movie down and check it out.
She gets to say whatever the fuck she wants, she’s a grown-ass woman. Stop hating, haters.
Also, Republicans: stop pretending like all other Black people are brainwashed. That shit isn’t good either. Thanks.
Why do people hate on people cause god still have her back.
This is just pure racism. If your family is going to disown because of political views then they don’t love you. Stacey Dash is a mixed women entitled to her political belief.
WHERE DOES RACE COME INTO PLAY IN THIS ARTICLE??
THIS IS ABOUT POLITICAL MALCONTENT. YOU ARE THE ONE STUCK ON RACE.
