An open letter to Justin
Timberlake in response to his halftime show
Dear Justin Timberlake,
As a fellow hipster, white person (that's where our similarities seem to part as I am at poverty level) let me say I understand the fine line that we as white hipsters must tightrope when showing our appreciation of Black culture and music. You seem to have no idea how to maneuver that tight rope or have no desire to. Maybe it is the money? Does your over abundance of money and yes people around keep you blind and deaf to the apparent disrespect that you are showing to prince, his family and the genre of music that you and many like you have ridden the coat tails of?
Prince was anti commercial
and his family was against the use of his hologram for the show. I
understand that the game took place in his home town and his fans
wanted to pay respect. Going against his families wishes show no
respect at all. How dare you? Did you and your fancy executives think
that showing the equivalent of a middle school science class
projection was the way around the definitive no that his family gave
this project? Even more insulting. People of color , whether they be
famous or not are not here for your ratings. I am disgusted and can
only hope that the ghost of Prince haunts you every night . You have
disgraced a deceased man's grieving family ...for what? Ratings?
I doubt you will ever read
this but if you do . Let this be a reminder , CHECK YOUR PRIVALAGE.
I do and I am not in any spotlight. I bet you can afford a really
nice spotlight at that . On the off chance you do read this ,
vaccinate your children guy. I mean come on when you don't vaccinate
your children you are putting young babies who are too young for
vaccines and people with immune deficiencies at risk . Diseases are
coming back thanks to Jenny Mccarthy following anti science people
much like you. Believe in Science dude and CHECK YOUR PRIVALAGE once
more.
Signed,
A fan of Prince and Science
