Lupe Fiasco Pens White Supremacy Letter

    Lupe Fiasco has long been a proponent of equal rights and an enemy of white supremacy. He has often times takes to either his music, social media or public events to spread his message.

    Most recently, the Chicago native penned a letter via his Instagram account. The three part manifesto titled “Dear, White Supremacy,” attempts to take power out of the message from the recent Charleston church shooting and also explains how racism is still alive and well in the United States.

    “First of all you are not really that supreme,” he wrote via the post. “While throughout history White Supremacy it must be admitted you have achieved some very dominant positions. These positions have been gained mostly through force or some biological agent such as disease that did a lot of the dirty work for you in advance.”

    Lupe Fiasco also called white supremacy a “lie” and says there is no top when it comes to society’s current social structure.

    “White Supremacy is a lie white regularists tell to themselves in hopes that they can get a one way ticket to the top and hope we other colors overhear it,” he explained. “Here’s the bad news, ain’t no top. Here’s the good news though, ain’t no bottom neither! It’s just the regular ole middle where nobody is safe from being influenced by somebody else’s extreme regularness.”

    Dylann Roof is the prime suspect in a recent killing spree that left nine Charleston, South Carolina church parishioners dead. The shooting has officially been labeled a hate crime by local officials. Roof has displayed his hate for minorities via social media in the past and is currently awaiting trial for the occurance.

    1. does anyone really care what lupe thinks? how bout u help chi-town from killing itself… kick push yaself off a cliff.

      1. He’s been very vocal against the gangs and crimes in Chicago. But guess what? They threatened to kill him. You must live in a cave

      2. there’s some white people that are evil as fuck with no chance of going to heaven and you are one of them. thank you for being a perfect example of your culture. you white piece of poop

      1. KKK’s are terrorist no better than the ones in IRAQ. we should use a drone for all KKK members. and all people that support them are going to hell for all the murders they never repent for and they don’t feel bad about. just ask GOD.

    2. White people are not better than anybody the history of the white culture is demonic…. enslaving people, dividing up Africa like it was a cake, killing off the native americans. nuking japan, colonizing 70% of the world, killing thousands of Iraqis in an illegal war. the world would be a better place if white people never existed. even though other cultures have their short comings…. the white man has proved to be the most evil machine in history.

      1. Africans where the 1st peoples to populate the Americas before the Mongols crossed into Alaska from Asia, but that history is not taught.

      2. Africans enslaved each other first and shipped their own people across the globe, including South America and the Middle East (the largest market for slaves.) There is no such thing as “white culture,” but if you look at all white cultures (Russian, Italian, British, French, American) in aggregate you will find that white cultures are the dominant cultures globally, either directly or directly influencing other cultures like India and China. If white people never existed, the entire world would look like Africa is now. Good thing white people never had a desire to sell their own people to slavery across the world.

      1. We have western privilege compared to those in the less financially developed parts of the world . Its a folly/lie to deny that geographical or racial privilege does not exist .

        And you are simplifying the piece what he seems to be saying is that the belief that one is superior purely based on race is an oxymoron a figurement of the imagination social engineering at it’s most basic level .

      2. @ Rekkington I get the feeling there may have been to many words for you to digest . Can I please suggest a book called (The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle) It has a lot of pictures and a large font text type. You can thank me later buddy

      3. So, because he’s more privileged than a poor black man he shouldn’t speak up? Isn’t it GOOD that he has a platform from which he can try to raise awareness and positivity? Your attitude is the poison that continues to plague black people. This mentality that “I don’t have that opportunity, so I don’t want YOU to have it either” is fucked up. What’s he supposed to do? Sit on a fuckin’ crate on the corner, so he can be deemed as ‘real’ to all the ignorant motherfuckers? That ‘real’ shit has gotten niggas nowhere. That ‘intelligent’ shit is what we need.

      1. FACT. Donkeys make a sound called braying like this .”hee-haw” and “eeyore.”
        That’s all I have to say on the matter

    3. Im all for open discussion but this matter only one right side. People dont have any right to be angry about people of color complaining about mistreatment. Its not an overexageration. The world would not be as backwards if anglo culture was dominat. The europeans were descended from primitive tribes who finally dedeated the romans, destroyed most of the records and knowledge that prob would have made the world progress faster( thebromans figured out to make running water and toilets)adapted the doctrine of the christian church to bring down the lesser and bought the world to a period of ignorance and backwardness, to finally colonizing the rest of the world. If those cultures werent in control the world would probably be a more tolerable less evil place. When anglos were still tribes africans and asians had discovered so many things ahead of their time. The asians invented gunpowder and the muslims invented algebra. If white people didnt conquer the rest of the world. The progress asian and african cultures ecoeriencedwould have progressed the world further if they werent exploited and abused.

      1. Wouldn’t that be a more salient point if you was talking about the so called SUPREMACISTS ?

    4. Only dirty white devils try to justify slavery…. have fun burning in HELL with all the other racist demons

      1. I’m actually Black but if you want to get technical I’m a mutha fuckin human being. fuck colors that shit only matters so much because white people have divided the world into this frenzy of nationalism. nationalism was the excuse whites gave for the world wars and not only that they made up scientific fallacies that white people are better than black people which only a hair brained human would believe. we are humans not colors. a color is merely the reflection of light that our eyes translate to our brains for identification of objects. so no I’m not white the sun makes me black. fuck you

      2. Too assume I am white is too assume you are asian. I can’t see you and you can not see me then it doesn’t matter if I’m white. I say honest Black man and you try to say I’m white and you say “nobody” and “secret” if I was a white man trying to hide behind the persona of a black man I’d be just as weak and stupid as you. No one is safe I’m shooting back. BANG

    5. Not quite sure he was saying that all white people are racist . In fact he quite clearly singled out so called white supremacists …. You didn’t even bother to read the headline did you. .LOL

    6. not all white people go to hell. only the slave owners go to hell white or black, the people that defend or support slavery, and all of the non believers of Jesus. if you don’t want to go to hell just repent for your sins and believe in Jesus/God like me.

      1. yeah me again I also go by Drizzy. I flamed Sauce Walka when he dissed drake and then he commented the next day trying to say “No disrespect” haha he’s wack. Thanks for the attention tho I love an audience. I rap too

    7. Thank you Lupe, for being thoughtful and intelligent. It’s a risky thing to do nowadays. Look no further than the comments underneath me. I haven’t even read them, but I don’t need to. People actually hate on love, intelligence, and awareness, and they are enamored by negativity, violence, and hatred. That’s how sad this shit has gotten. You can write a post saying “It’s good to be a loving parent”, and motherfuckers will find a way to hate on it. It’s just a hate culture we live in now. I’m proud of people like Lupe, who are fighting for the good team. Peace.

    8. I agreed with this whole letter except for one thing: There is a top. it’s controlled by a few people in the world that also has over 90% of the world’s wealth. we’re all fighting for the rest

    9. It sure would be wonderful if there were no other races ‘to be supreme over.’ A White society is a pleasant, happy, low-crime society. Notice that everyone always wants to move into White areas, but no one ever wants to move into, or even pass through, majority black areas. Blacks destroy things. Whites build, create, and repair them.

      Do you know why the black side of segregated buildings and areas were always so much worse? They weren’t designed that way. They were destroyed by a race that has no respect for anything or anyone, including themselves. You can see that in housing projects today, and in Section 8 apartments.

      If you hate it here so much, go home to Africa. A sensible person doesn’t eat at a restaurant where they dislike the food. Instead of whining, get on a plane and get out! I’m sure Liberia would love to have you, and we’d love to see you leave.
