How dare you. How! Dare! You!

Them nappy headed hoes but my kitchen good.” Nicki Minaj

At first I thought this was a joke and then I realized after your faux apologies came in that this was real. Unlike others, I am not I am not surprised.  I see you for what you are. Like your  color struck self hating “mentor”, Lil Wayne, who disgraced Emmett Till, you are an opportunist and racist who sees the financial opportunity in this.

Your usefulness, cartoonish coonery and buffoonery and Sarah Baartman act is coming to an end and so you needed a way to sell records and regain relevance. Well you have it. I usually ignore the willfully ignorant but every inch of my being compelled me to say something against people like you. People who steal what belongs to us for your own personal gain. You are a nonBlack/sometimes Black when it is convenient culture vulture and if hell existed, I’d tell you to go there.

“Who taught you to hate the color of your skin? Who taught you to hate the texture of your hair? Who taught you to hate the shape of your nose and the shape of your lips? Who taught you to hate yourself from the top of your head to the soles of your feet? Who taught you to hate your own kind? Who taught you to hate the race that you belong to so much so that you don’t want to be around each other? No… Before you come asking Mr. Muhammad does he teach hate, you should ask yourself who taught you to hate being what God made you.” Malcolm X

In your most popular songs you have disrespected Blackness. You find every way to separate yourself from your own Blackness by calling yourself nonBlack and yet you steal the image of one of our most cherished sons, our Black prince, Malcolm X. Do you know who Malcolm X was? I assume you and the record execs do.  Malcolm X was a man who loved his Blackness. He embraced his Blackness. He fought for his Blackness and he died for his Blackness.  To top it off you have the nerve to place his beloved image next to a god damn cover called “Looking Ass Nigga”. Your niggerfied depiction of Malcolm X appeals to Whiteness because that is exactly what you do. Your image, your music and your existence justifies White racism and reaffirms their privilege. You codify and soothe their false sense of supremacy. Everything Malcolm X did not. You know this and that is why you do it. Do I blame you? No. You have never been held accountable for your past antiBlack statements. Your dumb ass Black fans know you hate them and still support you. Well that is about to change.

I will tell you what others won’t say. The truth is we all know you would never do this to a White leader because your worship Whiteness. You, with your sliced and diced mutilated face and plastic body parts, blonde wigs and on again and off again fake British accent. You, the one who has molded herself to emulate someone other than yourself. You are nothing but a slave. A slave who worships at the altar of something you will never be, White. Like a drug dealer who sells poison on our streets or the gang banger who kills our people, you sell Black inferiority in a pretty brown plastic box. You are the lowest of the low. A traitor to your own kind. You are a White supremacist in brown face.

I am not going to be like the naïve and foolish who call this a “teachable moment.” Teaching time is over. It is time for action.  From images of Harriet, Martin, Emmett and now Malcolm, the war on Blackness by you and others has gone on for far too long.  Today I ask for a boycott of all of Minaj’s music and every single one of her ventures until her and her kind no longer have a career in music. I, like many others, will not tolerate the disrespect of my culture by culture vultures like you who openly hate Blackness but profit from it.  Let this be a warning for all Black and Brown White supremacists, until you do right by my people and my culture we will not support you. Until then I hope your career dies a quick and brutal death.
