Lupe Fiasco
Several weeks ago, the nation went into mourning when a young white Supremacist opened fire inside of a historical Black church and murdered nine people. Conscious rapper Lupe Fiasco made some poignant remarks in an open letter after authorities found accused killer, Dylann Roof’s, manifesto. ““First of all you are not really that supreme. There is nothing about you biologically or physically that denotes an innate mode of supremacy,” he wrote. “For that matter there is also nothing about you psychologically, philosophically, cognitively, academically, socially, architecturally, culturally or even financially that signifies a higher position above any other group. And to be diplomatic there is nothing about you that denotes innate inferiority as well. So what you really are is something in the middle. You are regular.”
