Here is a video I found on racism from the perspective of well known recording artist, Lupe Fiasco. I think that often, when we think of black leadership and those that really have an impact on our community we have the regulars: Barack Obama, Jessie Jackson, etc... We tend to forget that those people although they may be the face of black politics, they are not directly affecting our youth.
Rappers are huge opinion leaders and influences in the black community these days and its great to see that some of them are looking at the bigger picture.
Big ups to Lupe for always educating through his lyrics and his interviews like the one below!
