Talib Kweli Blasts White Privilege & Police Brutality

    Talib Kweli has always been known to speak about social justice both via his music and also in public outlets.

    Staying true to his conscious, the Black Star rapper recently took to Twitter to air out his beliefs about White privilege, among other topics, while simultaneously replying to others who disagree with his opinion.

    Some of the points Kweli made also included his comparisons between Black struggle and White representation in the media.

    “Black folks out here getting murdered, literally, and white dudes tweeting me mad cuz the Jeffersons still on and George say honky. Wowsers,” he said in one tweet today (July 5).

    Talib Kweli also spent time providing advice on how to push back against both random and institutional racism.

    “If I say ‘hey racism still exists’ and you hear & interpret that as ‘ALL whites are racist, you too’, then you probably are,” he wrote in a tweet and then followed up with: “If ppl spent a fraction of the time pushing back against actual oppression that they spend being scared 2 b called racist we’d get somewhere.”

    1. he doesnt know how racist he looks. there was more msgs..he was baiting white ppl into saying dumb shit so he could retweet it and flip it..

      he lost a fan thats for sure with this bullshit

      1. Latinos,Asian,European so many people living in America from various ethnicities…so why the fuck do these black people have the only problem?

    2. How can you change the situation if you are not part of the process. He need to vote to be part of the process and stop misleading the youth and telling them not to vote.
      Donate to shot97.com STAR spitting the real

    3. If the black people hate white privilege so much,then why are so many of you intent in voting for a white bitch?White bitches hide under the white privilege very nicely….the men are bashed up…whereas white pussies get away.Bring back Obama,or some black leader…but don’t bring a white bitch in order to promote the so-called women power or bitch(used pussy) power.Hypocritical people…Stop being so fucking politically correct.

      1. @Joe is gay….so fucker,how much do get for licking that white old pussy?77 cents or 1 dollar like that bitch claimed?Shut up and keep licking her pussy or fuck some gay thugs….Chelsea’s stinking pussy will be another option…lmfao

    4. Given the amount of leftist propaganda,political correctness and bitch empowerment Scott walker,even though he can do better work than that white old pussy,can never win.Neither could Mitt Romney in the previous election.But a white old 70 year old hag,who uses her man’s fame in order to glorify her crinkled white skin,who has a vile history of troubling people using false accusations and a constant male bashing attitude,I don’t think her white old ass would be a better choice.Obama is certainly 100 times better than her.But don’t think I am here to preach.It’s my opinion just like this all-words-and-no-work rapper.

    5. In my lifetime,I didn’t get a chance to fuck a white ass.My black cock craves for that shit filled white ass.Young white boys always ignored me.Even white blondes made fun of me.Hence I am jealous of those white people.

    6. I don’t like Talib. He used to complain that he has more white fans than black fans, and now he has no fans.

    7. White people think there better then everyone else and now white people are the minority lol

    8. Yeah…white people went into minority…that’s the reason why gay culture spread so quickly…cause’ most gays are filthy black dicks….

    9. Which tables are u talking about?To fuck the maximum number of asses?No white man can win.Black culture is all gay and fake booty culture like nicki minaj.

    10. white privilege is the main problem in America. The distribution of wealth is the reason we struggle so much and has a direct effect on the crime rate and quality of life of the people in the under class. This is the richest country in the world, but black people still feel like they can barely survive with what we are offered.

      1. asians arabs mexicans all do good in this country and they dont bitch ever..if you cant make something of yourselves its more than likely not that your just dumb as a whole .. look at africa.. shit hole except where whites made it good lol.

      2. True. The Average white family has 100,000+ in wealth compared to $7,000+ for black households and $8,000+ for Latino households. Shit is fucked up. Most of the black people I’ve met since coming to the US are broke, and if they’re not broke, they’ve only had money in their family for like a generation or two. Black people have had to deal with laws that stopped them from owning things, banks denying them loans, laws that kept them out of the suburbs, etc While white people have been allowed to prosper and grow. They don’t even realize how much they’ve benefited financially off of racism. They would rather just think they’re superior to everyone else. Their day is coming though, people are beginning to wake up to their bullshit.

      3. asians arabs mexicans, puerto ricans, dominicans, columbians, ecuadorians, brazilians go thru the same discrimination and they all ain’t happy or successful but i shouldn’t be surprised of you weirdos’ ignorance, for there’s some 55 yr old german on nbc news website talking about the confederate flag isn’t racist and has nothing to do with racism.

      4. arabs, asians, hispanics most certainly DO b!tch about white ppl as they should. They just do it quieter and let blacks take all the heat.

    11. fuck all you white boys. You don’t and will never understand the real struggles of a real nigga. My nigga guwop locked behind bars for a crime that a white person wouldn’t do time for.

    12. stop trying to explain to them for they don’t want an explanation or the truth cats done wasted a good 30 years trying & their 2015 young still think like the civil war adults

    13. like this comment clown rekkington want you to believe it’s paranoia but would never say that in a circle of black americans because his teeth would be loosened. that boy got the IQ of talcum powder

      1. Black people arent the only ones with fist and you wouldnt be so tough in a circle of white americans, or spanish americans or asian etc.. i hate when black people say dumb shit like that as if their teeth couldnt get broken. Its the truth black people with money shit on blacks who go without. Black people need to help black people, not belittle them. If someone like 2pac was still alive, half these black millionaires would get ripped apart. Its bullshit. Racism is definitely wack and i agree with black people on a lot of issues but not all.

    14. Asians spend hire within their community
      Arabs spend and hire within their community
      Latinos spend and hire within their community
      Indians spend and hire within their community
      Whites spend and hire within their community (its racist when they do it tho)
      Blacks spend money on gucci lv whips and chains i can name more black millionaires then i can white brown purple be mad at your black millionaires for poppin bottles on instagram but thinks giving backpacks out is giving back 1 bottle could by how many backpacks

      ugly truth

      1. arabs buy lv gucci pop expensive magnum bottles & spend outside their community, asians too, hindu too stop repeating that ridiculous sentiment like it’s actual fact you obviously ain’t around to see the truth so u spread the lies because they somehow make your punk ass look better

      2. Totally agree… Dr. Dre just made a billion dollars and havent heard a peep about what his plans are for the black community.. they act like buying some kids on their street some sneakers is enough

    15. where’s all of this black success in copenhagen, deutschland, belfast, barcelona, sydney, rome, athens, brussels, dublin, lisbon? stop it little boy u sound like the consummate fool here on hhdx rekkington you’re a hater by birth

      1. Despite being factually inept, what does this have to do with anything? Hip Hop shows have been completely whitewashed over the last 10-15 years. Most hip hop shows are majority white crowds now, unless you’re in a little underground grimy spot on the south or west sides. All of you little new jack suburbanites really need to check yourselves and respect the history. Talib Kweli concert, 2001, Joe’s Chicago. 95% non-white crowd. Most hip hop shows throughout the 90s were predominantly minority crowds. The internet completely changed this. Everything that was once less accessible to sheltered little clueless white suburbanites was now up in everyone’s faces. Everybody’s a rapper. These little corn chips with no projection, cadence, and no breath control are making “songs” in their far flung suburban bedrooms or small towns with no minority residents on mommy and daddy’s computers now. Maybe I’m getting old and bitter but hip hop has become a joke. Thanks to the internet and corporate influence. Anything that can be packaged and sold eventually will be. I used to love this culture. The word culture is even laughable at this point with regards to where hip hop has gone. I think these little rich white suburbanite kids with their imaginary white people pain should have to live a month, shoot a week in some of these neighborhoods where hip hop originated. That being said – even biggie’s brooklyn & big L’s harlem are million dollar homes now. Not to mention, Talib went to an all white boarding school in Connecticut. haha. keep the people guessing who I’m running with.

    16. some white people are demons of greed and hate some white people are afraid to stand up against the white devils and some dont have what it takes to stop the evil white people. black people as a minority havent accumulated the proper momentum to defend ourselves from racism. so we talk shit to make our fellow black people mad with us too one day take over more land in this country.

    17. Respect to Talib. What happens in Amerikkka today is the state of society whose foundations are laid in injustice and violence. No economic justice came with the civil/human rights struggle because most whites refuse to reckon with the past. Let’s practice Black on Black love. Blessings to all the commenters on here

    18. Can’t believe racism still exists. We all the same on the inside, homie. I don’t understand what racist fuck asses don’t understand about that!?
