I really don't have
two beans to put in the pot for this guy. I was completely done with his
previous record of inappropriate behavior with young girls. But it seems that
it gets to be glossed over under some guise of mentorship? And since he was not
convicted of a crime, or whatever the case may be, he continues to get away, time and time again.
I am only posting this video as a test, just to see how much traction it gets, while seriously, it does point to some of the most sickening ills in our world today, I am wondering if YouTube will find it within their illustrious power to allow this video to get some views.

The commentary in
this article is very, very well spoken and needs to be heard. I am wondering if
that may make this video go to the back of the YouTube bus just because it is
well spoken.
Houston, we have a
problem, and these unidentified predators along with the ones who are
identified, need to have some serious work done on them for the sake of our
children.
Our young children
and youth are under attack, and for some reason it goes on unabated. Just saw
a video of two big cops, handcuffing a 6 year old boy… was that really
necessary? Handcuffs??? Because he is using profane language and five finger
discounting.. He needs to be arrested and put in handcuffs?? Back in the day, a swift beating would be all
that was needed. But in today's world, the police can beat, handcuff, and in
some cases, shoot our children right on the street, and with no remorse or
accountability.
They keep saying we
gotta go to the home front, but even there, we are being monitored and told
just how much and in what way we can discipline our children, and then there's
the world that surrounds them, the media, the devices, movies, etc. that encourage
disrespectful and lewd behavior.
From there we play
the blame game and blame the children. In my video "Why Do We Blame the
Children"
I discuss this very
fact, we are the adults, it's our responsibility to protect, nurture, care and
secure our children. I ask the question, who is making these video games, the
movies, the apps, the TV shows, the styles of dress that they wear, the food that
they eat? And so forth?
Is there a child CEO
who is overseeing all of this? No? Who is lying to and terrifying our children?
So, anyways, let's
look at this article and see what Tarana Burke to
say about this so-called famous Black celebrity doing what he does as it
relates to barely legal young ladies.
Excerpt from Atlanta
Black Star:
This
is Not a Think Piece — I Don’t Need to Think About How I Feel About R. Kelly by Tarana Burke
This is not a think
piece.
I don’t need to
think about how I feel about R. Kelly.
I’m not trying to
land on a position, I’m not weighing the information, and I’m not taking a
little time to process.
He’s trash. Full
stop.
This is not a think
piece.
There have been
enough of them written, as well as exposés and articles and
timelines about the horrendous sexually
predatory behavior of Robert Sylvester Kelly. I don’t want to talk
about him. I want to talk about them. The girls. The Black girls who he has
stalked, preyed on, manipulated, terrorized, abused and discarded for the
better part of two and a half decades.
The saddest fact
I’ve learned is nobody matters less to our society than young black women.
Nobody. They have any complaint about the way they are treated and they are
“bitches, ho’s, and gold-diggers,” plain and simple. Kelly never misbehaved
with a single white girl who sued him or that we know of. Mark Anthony Neal,
the African-American scholar, makes this point: “One white girl in Winnetka and
the story would have been different. No, it was young black girls, and all of
them settled. They settled because they felt they could get no justice
whatsoever. They didn’t have a chance.”
This quote is
from Jim
DeRogatis, the Chicago reporter who has spent the better part of a
decade writing
about and exposing the sexually deviant behavior of the R&B singer
known as R. Kelly. This week DeRogatis published another exposé on
the Buzzfeed platform alleging that Kelly is operating a “cult”-like commune
where he is holding barely legal Black girls at homes in Atlanta and Chicago
under the guise of mentorship and preparation for becoming recording artists.
The details are horrid but not surprising. Ever since the first story surfaced
about 28-year old Kelly marrying then-15-year old singer Aaliyah the
allegations against him have grown more and more grotesque and depraved.
