What a surprise-Messy Jesse & Reverend Press & Curl (Reverends Jackson and Sharpton) are suggesting a boycott against the sponsors of Don Imus' show, hopefully resulting in the shock jock's expulsion. As I mentioned previously, the Tony Yayo incident received very little media attention (including Sharpton's proposed rally against Yayo) or public indignation-I guess the striking of a young boy doesn't measure up to a racist quip by a deranged White radio personality. Riddle me this Blackman-what will it take to implement a boycott against G-Unit or the Gangsta/minstrel hip hop industry who denigrate Black women with far more regularity and viciousness than Imus? The answer? No one knows.
