We're talking about a picture that is supposed to represent something false. Charlamagne ain't gotta stand for that. Especially in a social media age where it gets circulated everywhere and Charlamagne would constantly have to address it to explain how he didn't just validate the man who called him coon and who never apologized for it, which was his point on Joe Budden's podcast. Charlamagne is right about this one.
Malcolm X said there isn't a black person in America he doesn't have use for.

Give me the full quote.

The example given was a white cop about to put his hands on MLK. Completely different story.
And what's the big cause they are putting their differences aside for? What exactly is the picture supposed to accomplish other than the false representation that they are cool? It would be one thing if you had blacks getting shot up out in the streets and Ebro and Charlamagne had to come together to literally save lives. Let's not pretend this is that, even if that's how Ebro wants to play.
Both showed up at the event and did their thing. I don't see why Charlamagne had to take a picture with duke. It does more damage than good because it says "Yo I'm cool with this cat calling me a coon and not apologizing for it", which undermines Charlamagne's message, which was actually a good one.

It also took time for him to get to that point...and everybody don't move at the same pace...plus ain't nobody obligated to forgive nobody. That's a personal decision you make

A white reporter was interviewing Malcom X and quoted Thurgood Marshall saying there were some black people he, Thurgood, had no use for. X responded by saying that there isnt a black person in America that he doeant have use for.
The example wasn't just some random cop about to put hands on King. The example was X sending a wire to the police commissioner that if anything was to happen to King following a recent incident involving a black man being murdered, there would be reprecussions.

I think CTG was wrong in this situation. You can't have meetings with Tomi Lahren who disparages black organizations and try to son a black dude at a meeting for a black organization. That's foul IMO
How is CTG wrong for not taking a pic w/ a nigga he doesn't care for?
How ever you feel about him and that Tomi situation, that goddamn pic wasn't gonna change ur mind.
Y'all niggas in here acting like y'all cool wit every MF you ever met in your life. That event wasn't about CTG and Ebro mending fences, it was about rights or voting(idk).
What's funny is had it came out that CTG wanted to take a pic w/ Ebro y'all be calling him lame.
My point is this: he wasn't cool with Tomi, but he went on her show which added to her brand for better or worse. She never altered her position on the subject of black organizations but he decided to meet with her again anyway. That's inconsistent with how Ebro was treated at a meeting for a black organization. Ebro never mentioned the slight, he just let it be. Charlemagne mentioned the encounter for cool points.
If you disagree that's fine, but it's not consistent with his precepts on slave-mindedness.
Charlamagne mentioned the encounter because it came up as part of a conversation when Joe Budden asked him about him and Hot 97...and the Tomi shit you're looking at way out of context. There's a difference in not getting along w/ a radio personality, especially another black man, for saying you're a coon and then also wanting to take a picture with you like everything is good vs. telling a white woman that trying to compare Black Lives Matter protesting police violence is the same as the KKK. Those are 2 very different sets of circumstances

It was dope they went to the know your rights event for the cause but a photo ain't gunna fix injustice.
Trump ain't gunna be like "I saw a great great photo of CTG and Ebro and i want all police to know the rights these black men have. Every police officer who has bias toward black men and women called me personally last night and will treat all people fairly for the cultre."
The event wasn't going to do any of that either. That's a small minded position to take.
It all just speaks towards the larger issue of male ego and pride. More specifically in the black/urban community.
Honestly Kap pisses me off because he doesn't fucking get it. He has these programs and shit but the nigga not even voting in his local election. The reason Ferguson had the issues with the police and the justice system out there is cause in a mostly black area niggas ain't vote.
You sound like a parrot

Lmao bitch
Man everyone knows that's Wax. He put his peoples ain't nothing wrong with that. CTG knows he pisses off fragile egos constantly and has been approached.
Either way I think their both entertaining. CTG is funny as fuck and BI is my favorite podcast. Ebro been killing it with interviews lately too.
