In \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://www.harpercollins.com/9780062684301/what-doesnt-kill-you-makes-you-blacker/\">What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker\u003c/a>, \u003c/em>Young chronicles his efforts to endure the plethora of battles that come with being black, including expectations about his fighting skills, the need to perform hypermasculinity, and the death of his mother at the hands of a healthcare system that treats African Americans as if they feel no pain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker \u003c/em>is a deconstruction of Young's various neuroses. Young has spent his entire life doubting himself, and the roots of that self-doubt can be found in the way black people are treated and the expectations placed on them by their status as others, as outsiders. In the 16 essays that make up the book, Young pulls readers into his world, showing them his vulnerability, hitting them with unflinching honesty about the state of race relations in this country, and keeping them glued to the pages with his wit and humor. While this is presented as a memoir in essays, \u003cem>What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker \u003c/em>is more of a personal collection of independent essays that offer a look at the life of one man. It is also a collection that serves as an authentic, keen, and touching example of the black male experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reading Young's essays is often an uncomfortable experience because he doesn't shy away from ugly truths. There is a lot of funny writing here, but also pain, insecurity, loss, and injustice. For example, Young believes his mother would be alive today if she were white because doctors never took her pain seriously, and he proves his point with historical facts. And just like his mother's cancer becomes a vehicle to discuss larger cultural issues, Young tackles one of the greatest cancers at the core of our country: racism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"White supremacy is so gargantuan and mundane that sometimes its existence and its proficiency can't be measured, addressed, or even seen without a stark change in perspective. It isn't like gravity. It is gravity. It is a ceaseless pressure intended to keep blackness ground-bound and sick.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The notion that black people are tougher and feel no pain is just one of many ideas Young analyzes. From sports to politics, blackness in America is synonymous with otherness. This otherness is framed by unfairness and preconceived notions that place black people at a disadvantage from the time they are born, especially if they're poor because poverty is seen as something that makes them innately stronger:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"If you're poor and black, America acts like you emerge from the womb twenty-seven years old, with four kids, five predicate felonies, and a lit Newport already between your lips. White people get to be babies. And they get to still be babies when they're adults. Poor black people are born Avon Barksdale.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The beauty of \u003cem>What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker \u003c/em>is that Young never tries to make it easy for readers. He shows his righteous anger. He presents inequality. And he uses the N-word. For him, the N-word, which can be a noun, verb, or adjective, must be earned, and earning it is part of black culture. More importantly, the word has two variants; one used for friends and one that symbolizes 400 years of oppression. Young thinks understanding the difference between using the N-word when it ends in -ga and when it ends in -ger is crucial, and he dedicates various passages to explaining the difference:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"While the experience of American blackness is too varied and motley to feign some sort of universality, none of us are immune to the random and haphazard violence of n****r; of being called one, of being treated like one, of being thought of as one. It, like n***a, also transcends status and station, as even n***as who believe they've somehow escaped and eclipsed n****r are susceptible to the n****r wake-up call, of having their blankets of perceived privilege yanked from underneath them, hurling them into space while n****r's savage gravity vaporizes them. It's through this collective fire that n***a is earned. We've earned the right to be it, to call each other it, to allow it to permeate our thoughts and our taunts, our minds and our music, our sentences and our souls.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Vocabulary and racial slurs are only two of many spaces in which blackness and whiteness collide, with the latter usually embodying hegemony. There is a bit of that in every essay and that makes the book cohesive. There are two somewhat meandering essays at the end of the book that could have used a stronger edit, but that aside, \u003cem>What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker \u003c/em>is an outstanding collection of nonfiction that encapsulates the black male experience—and demands change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Young is a talented writer and sharp cultural critic. He created something special with this timely and powerful book.

In \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://www.harpercollins.com/9780062684301/what-doesnt-kill-you-makes-you-blacker/\">What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker\u003c/a>, \u003c/em>Young chronicles his efforts to endure the plethora of battles that come with being black, including expectations about his fighting skills, the need to perform hypermasculinity, and the death of his mother at the hands of a healthcare system that treats African Americans as if they feel no pain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker \u003c/em>is a deconstruction of Young's various neuroses. Young has spent his entire life doubting himself, and the roots of that self-doubt can be found in the way black people are treated and the expectations placed on them by their status as others, as outsiders. In the 16 essays that make up the book, Young pulls readers into his world, showing them his vulnerability, hitting them with unflinching honesty about the state of race relations in this country, and keeping them glued to the pages with his wit and humor. While this is presented as a memoir in essays, \u003cem>What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker \u003c/em>is more of a personal collection of independent essays that offer a look at the life of one man. It is also a collection that serves as an authentic, keen, and touching example of the black male experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reading Young's essays is often an uncomfortable experience because he doesn't shy away from ugly truths. There is a lot of funny writing here, but also pain, insecurity, loss, and injustice. For example, Young believes his mother would be alive today if she were white because doctors never took her pain seriously, and he proves his point with historical facts. And just like his mother's cancer becomes a vehicle to discuss larger cultural issues, Young tackles one of the greatest cancers at the core of our country: racism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"White supremacy is so gargantuan and mundane that sometimes its existence and its proficiency can't be measured, addressed, or even seen without a stark change in perspective. It isn't like gravity. It is gravity. It is a ceaseless pressure intended to keep blackness ground-bound and sick.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The notion that black people are tougher and feel no pain is just one of many ideas Young analyzes. From sports to politics, blackness in America is synonymous with otherness. This otherness is framed by unfairness and preconceived notions that place black people at a disadvantage from the time they are born, especially if they're poor because poverty is seen as something that makes them innately stronger:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"If you're poor and black, America acts like you emerge from the womb twenty-seven years old, with four kids, five predicate felonies, and a lit Newport already between your lips. White people get to be babies. And they get to still be babies when they're adults. Poor black people are born Avon Barksdale.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The beauty of \u003cem>What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker \u003c/em>is that Young never tries to make it easy for readers. He shows his righteous anger. He presents inequality. And he uses the N-word. For him, the N-word, which can be a noun, verb, or adjective, must be earned, and earning it is part of black culture. More importantly, the word has two variants; one used for friends and one that symbolizes 400 years of oppression. Young thinks understanding the difference between using the N-word when it ends in -ga and when it ends in -ger is crucial, and he dedicates various passages to explaining the difference:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"While the experience of American blackness is too varied and motley to feign some sort of universality, none of us are immune to the random and haphazard violence of n****r; of being called one, of being treated like one, of being thought of as one. It, like n***a, also transcends status and station, as even n***as who believe they've somehow escaped and eclipsed n****r are susceptible to the n****r wake-up call, of having their blankets of perceived privilege yanked from underneath them, hurling them into space while n****r's savage gravity vaporizes them. It's through this collective fire that n***a is earned. We've earned the right to be it, to call each other it, to allow it to permeate our thoughts and our taunts, our minds and our music, our sentences and our souls.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Vocabulary and racial slurs are only two of many spaces in which blackness and whiteness collide, with the latter usually embodying hegemony. There is a bit of that in every essay and that makes the book cohesive. There are two somewhat meandering essays at the end of the book that could have used a stronger edit, but that aside, \u003cem>What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker \u003c/em>is an outstanding collection of nonfiction that encapsulates the black male experience—and demands change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Young is a talented writer and sharp cultural critic.

As seen in 'Army at Home' by Judith Giesberg.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Charlotte was not one to go quietly however, thanks in large part to the way her tenacious parents had raised her. Her father, James E. Brown, made a living running his own stable, but in his personal life, James was a co-founder of the Bay Area’s first African-American newspaper, \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83027100/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mirror of the Times\u003c/a>, \u003c/em>and was an outspoken abolitionist rumored to protect fugitive slaves. James had once been a slave himself, released from servitude only when his wife, a seamstress whom Charlotte was named after, had raised enough money to buy his freedom. This was no easy feat, given that in 1850, healthy male slaves cost \u003ca href=\"https://www.quora.com/How-much-did-slaves-in-the-Americas-cost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">on average $2,000\u003c/a>, around \u003ca href=\"https://www.officialdata.org/us/inflation/1850?amount=2000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$60,000 in 2019\u003c/a> money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='pop_102326']Once slavery had been declared illegal in California in 1849, it made sense for James and Charlotte Sr. to move west from Maryland to take advantage of the Gold Rush to provide for their growing family. By the time Charlotte Jr., at the age of 24, was forced from that streetcar, the family was living in North Beach and had become prominent figures in the local Black community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Charlotte and her father decided to take action by bringing a lawsuit against Omnibus Railroad, an extraordinarily brave move, given that it had only been a matter of months since African Americans in California had gained the right to testify against white people in court. During the case, Omnibus defended its racist policies, arguing that people of color should not be permitted to ride streetcars in case they made white women and children feel “\u003ca href=\"https://blackthen.com/rosa-parks-charlotte-l-brown-1863-san-francisco/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fearful or repulsed.\u003c/a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Charlotte ultimately won the case and was awarded $25 and costs, appeals by Omnibus kept her tied up in court for months. The end result saw her award sum \u003ca href=\"https://wikivisually.com/wiki/Charlotte_L._Brown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">reduced to just five cents, \u003c/a>the cost of Charlotte’s original ticket. What’s more, the case did not change Omnibus policy. Just days after the first case was finally over, \u003ca href=\"http://www.blackhistoryheroes.com/2015/12/before-rosa-parks-there-was-charlotte-l.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Charlotte was removed from another Omnibus streetcar\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Charlotte and her father went straight back to court, this time finding themselves arguing in front of a very sympathetic judge. Judge Orville C. Pratt of the 12th District Court deemed segregation “\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orville_C._Pratt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">barbaric\u003c/a>,” awarded Charlotte $500 and, in his landmark October 1864 ruling, \u003ca href=\"http://www.wherevertheresafight.com/excerpts/under_color_of_law_the_fight_for_racial_equality\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stated\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>It has been already quite too long tolerated by the dominant race to see with indifference the Negro or mulatto treated as a brute, insulted, wronged, enslaved, made to wear a yoke, to tremble before white men, to serve him as a tool, to hold property and life at his will, to surrender to him his intellect and conscience, and to seal his lips and belie his thought through dread of the white man’s power.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Charlotte continued to follow in the footsteps of her fierce family later in life. A decade after winning her court case, Charlotte married fellow activist James Henry Riker, who had been one of the organizers of the 1865 California State Convention of Colored Citizens, which brought together Black activists, churches, social clubs and literary societies to plan courses of action. The couple went on to live on the edge of Chinatown, while Charlotte established a primary school in North Beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13881675']There can be no doubt that Charlotte’s case went on to bolster Mary Ellen Pleasant in 1866 when she brought a lawsuit against North Beach Municipal Railroad for refusing to pick her up, an ongoing problem for San Francisco’s Black population for years after Brown’s case concluded. Pleasant’s lawsuit made it all the way to California’s Supreme Court, and in 1893, a statewide ban on streetcar segregation came into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Charlotte’s case was also cited by \u003ca href=\"https://wikivisually.com/wiki/Charlotte_L._Brown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Senator Charles Sumner\u003c/a> as legal precedent while he fought for desegregated transport in Washington DC. Charlotte is remembered alongside the likes of Sojourner Truth, Elizabeth Jennings, Frances Harper and Ida B. Wells, all of whom fought similar battles around the country during the same era.

Her father, James E.

James had once been a slave himself, released from servitude only when his wife, a seamstress whom Charlotte was named after, had raised enough money to buy his freedom. This was no easy feat, given that in 1850, healthy male slaves cost \u003ca href=\"https://www.quora.com/How-much-did-slaves-in-the-Americas-cost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">on average $2,000\u003c/a>, around \u003ca href=\"https://www.officialdata.org/us/inflation/1850?amount=2000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$60,000 in 2019\u003c/a> money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"pop_102326","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>Once slavery had been declared illegal in California in 1849, it made sense for James and Charlotte Sr. to move west from Maryland to take advantage of the Gold Rush to provide for their growing family.

During the case, Omnibus defended its racist policies, arguing that people of color should not be permitted to ride streetcars in case they made white women and children feel “\u003ca href=\"https://blackthen.com/rosa-parks-charlotte-l-brown-1863-san-francisco/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fearful or repulsed.\u003c/a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Charlotte ultimately won the case and was awarded $25 and costs, appeals by Omnibus kept her tied up in court for months.

What’s more, the case did not change Omnibus policy.

Judge Orville C. Pratt of the 12th District Court deemed segregation “\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orville_C._Pratt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">barbaric\u003c/a>,” awarded Charlotte $500 and, in his landmark October 1864 ruling, \u003ca href=\"http://www.wherevertheresafight.com/excerpts/under_color_of_law_the_fight_for_racial_equality\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stated\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>It has been already quite too long tolerated by the dominant race to see with indifference the Negro or mulatto treated as a brute, insulted, wronged, enslaved, made to wear a yoke, to tremble before white men, to serve him as a tool, to hold property and life at his will, to surrender to him his intellect and conscience, and to seal his lips and belie his thought through dread of the white man’s power.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Charlotte continued to follow in the footsteps of her fierce family later in life. A decade after winning her court case, Charlotte married fellow activist James Henry Riker, who had been one of the organizers of the 1865 California State Convention of Colored Citizens, which brought together Black activists, churches, social clubs and literary societies to plan courses of action.

But in the last six months, racist imagery in fashion is looking less like an accident or an oversight, and more like a full-blown, designer-sanctioned trend. It's impossible to know the roots of the inspiration behind the designs, but it seems deeply unlikely that the fashion world is as oblivious as it claims to be when it comes to the weight attached to this kind of imagery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all, it's not like issues around blackface haven't been front and center recently.

But as long as Prada, Gucci and Burberry have offices and multiple stores on U.S. shores, there's really no excuse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Racism is certainly not an America-specific problem. Though the number of hate crimes being reported here has been rising steadily since 2015 (with nearly 60 percent of those occurring \"because of bias against race, ethnicity or ancestry bias\"), the same can be said of \u003ca href=\"https://www.statista.com/statistics/659157/hate-crimes-recorded-by-the-police-italy/\">Italy\u003c/a> (home of Prada and Gucci) and \u003ca href=\"https://fullfact.org/crime/hate-crime-england-and-wales/\">England\u003c/a> (Burberry's home base). Both countries saw the number of reported race-related hate crimes literally double between 2012 and 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An apologist might try and make the argument that these designers are merely reflecting the fraught times we live in, holding a mirror up to a society that has seen a resurgence of race-related violence and far-right politics in recent years and reminding us of a recent past when blatantly racist imagery was commonplace. But if that were the case, wouldn't the fashion houses have used that as a justification during their apologies? Wouldn't they have articulated their good intentions when called out for their bad behavior, rather than acting like they hadn't noticed what they were putting out?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prada, Burberry and Gucci can feign ignorance around the intentions of these designs as much as they want.

But as long as Prada, Gucci and Burberry have offices and multiple stores on U.S. shores, there's really no excuse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Racism is certainly not an America-specific problem.

But if that were the case, wouldn't the fashion houses have used that as a justification during their apologies?

Kelly being well-known in his hometown of Chicago\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's really well-known in Chicago, for generations ... He would cruise McDonald's near high schools and have someone from his team go up to a girl, get her number and she didn't have to be anything. She didn't have to have long hair or short hair. [She could] be light skinned or dark skinned and have a great body or a bad one. All she had to be was young. And so, we have lots of evidence of him cruising not only McDonald's, but then also his old high school, Kenwood Academy, which was a kind of school that was renowned for its excellent music program and choir. Sometimes as a guest sometimes just as a drop-in, he would cruise girls at his high school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On the videotape that allegedly showed Kelly sexually abusing a teenage girl\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I didn't watch it until I began making this docuseries. ... I avoided it because I thought it to be child porn just from the descriptions. But when I actually saw it, it had nothing to do with sex. It was all about barking commands at and humiliating and degrading this young, young girl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She appears to be prepubescent, but we later learned that she was Sparkle's niece, and there was whole trial about that case. Sparkle was an R&B singer who lived in the studio. She was being mentored by R. Kelly. He was producing and writing her album. So, he met that victim because her aunt lived in the studio, as one does when one's recording an album, and her family, who were a family of musicians, would come by. He met her, Sparkle says, as early as 12.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On criticism that the survivors didn't go to the police \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That confounds me, especially coming from black people. I really didn't know until I started reading these tweets directed at me and some of the survivors that we had some fantasy about there being some vice squad dedicated to kind of busting down doors for black girls and to save black girls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also have testimony ... about the Chicago Police Department giving R. Kelly a heads up when one of the parents, for instance, had convinced the police to do a wellness check on their daughter. At this point, she was over 18. They couldn't really make a claim, but they begged the police to at least check on their daughter and make sure that she was okay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Someone in the Chicago Police Department—likely someone who worked security on their off-duty hours—called him, and told him it was happening. And they got the studio ready and got the girls out of the studio before the police arrived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On a pattern in the black community of protecting black men at the expense of black women \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We know that this system is unfair to black people—not just black men, but black people. We often rhetorically talk about black men being targeted and treated unfairly and abused in the criminal justice system—but it's black people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We know what this system does to us, right? So to turn to that system for justice is itself an oxymoron. But at the same time, we have a knee-jerk reaction to protect black men, always at the expense of black women. People like bell hooks and black feminists before me have written about this and talked about this and done scholarship about this, but nothing has changed about this. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So this is something that we see generation after generation, and R. Kelly has a particular kind of love, which acts as a currency in the black community. He is singularly an R&B artist. He makes black music for black people ... and he has used that love as a cover.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On R. Kelly being sexually abused himself as a child \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What R. Kelly was as a child was raped and molested. He uses the word \"molested.\" ... So he has some kind of understanding. ... [People on his team] knew that he was abused. Many of them there were Chicago-based people who knew that family members had been abusing him as a child. That's deep trauma that needs real healing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm not saying that at 52, which is the age R. Kelly is right now, when he has two very young women living with him, whose parents are looking for them, that there's some magical age when you are supposed to have a healing, because many people don't heal their entire lifetimes. I have childhood trauma that I'm still trying to heal and I'm five years younger than R. Kelly. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's cliché to say, but almost all abusers have been abused, but not all people who have been abused become abusers. So there comes a time when R. Kelly is absolutely responsible for the harm that he's caused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On why she wants to do this work \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I started writing about hip-hop as a 19-year-old film student in New York, I was calling out the misogyny and the violence against women. And I'm sad to say I don't feel that there's been too much progress made.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I come from all-black Detroit city and I live and breathe in black spaces. And I want them to be safe not just for my daughter and me, but [also for] black women who don't want that safety for themselves, who've internalized the misogyny and don't \u003cem>think\u003c/em> that they deserve the safety and justice that they deserve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Heidi Saman and Thea Chaloner produced and edited this interview for broadcast.

Kelly\u003c/a> engaging in sex acts with an underage girl. This is not the first time the R&B superstar has been accused of sexual abuse. Allegations have circled Kelly for decades; in 2002, a videotape surfaced that purportedly showed Kelly engaging in sexual acts with a teenage girl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until recently, the accusations did not seem to significantly impact Kelly's career. Though Kelly was indicted in 2002 on \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/01/11/683936629/r-kelly-allegations-an-abridged-history#indictment\">21 counts of child pornography\u003c/a>, a Chicago jury later acquitted him of all charges in 2008.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But activist, filmmaker and writer dream hampton isn't about to let Kelly off the hook. hampton executive produced \u003cem>Surviving R.

Kelly being well-known in his hometown of Chicago\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's really well-known in Chicago, for generations ... He would cruise McDonald's near high schools and have someone from his team go up to a girl, get her number and she didn't have to be anything. She didn't have to have long hair or short hair. [She could] be light skinned or dark skinned and have a great body or a bad one. All she had to be was young. And so, we have lots of evidence of him cruising not only McDonald's, but then also his old high school, Kenwood Academy, which was a kind of school that was renowned for its excellent music program and choir. Sometimes as a guest sometimes just as a drop-in, he would cruise girls at his high school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On the videotape that allegedly showed Kelly sexually abusing a teenage girl\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I didn't watch it until I began making this docuseries. ... I avoided it because I thought it to be child porn just from the descriptions. But when I actually saw it, it had nothing to do with sex. It was all about barking commands at and humiliating and degrading this young, young girl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She appears to be prepubescent, but we later learned that she was Sparkle's niece, and there was whole trial about that case. Sparkle was an R&B singer who lived in the studio. She was being mentored by R. Kelly. He was producing and writing her album. So, he met that victim because her aunt lived in the studio, as one does when one's recording an album, and her family, who were a family of musicians, would come by. He met her, Sparkle says, as early as 12.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On criticism that the survivors didn't go to the police \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That confounds me, especially coming from black people. I really didn't know until I started reading these tweets directed at me and some of the survivors that we had some fantasy about there being some vice squad dedicated to kind of busting down doors for black girls and to save black girls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also have testimony ... about the Chicago Police Department giving R. Kelly a heads up when one of the parents, for instance, had convinced the police to do a wellness check on their daughter. At this point, she was over 18. They couldn't really make a claim, but they begged the police to at least check on their daughter and make sure that she was okay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Someone in the Chicago Police Department—likely someone who worked security on their off-duty hours—called him, and told him it was happening. And they got the studio ready and got the girls out of the studio before the police arrived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On a pattern in the black community of protecting black men at the expense of black women \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We know that this system is unfair to black people—not just black men, but black people. We often rhetorically talk about black men being targeted and treated unfairly and abused in the criminal justice system—but it's black people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We know what this system does to us, right? So to turn to that system for justice is itself an oxymoron. But at the same time, we have a knee-jerk reaction to protect black men, always at the expense of black women. People like bell hooks and black feminists before me have written about this and talked about this and done scholarship about this, but nothing has changed about this. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So this is something that we see generation after generation, and R. Kelly has a particular kind of love, which acts as a currency in the black community. He is singularly an R&B artist. He makes black music for black people ... and he has used that love as a cover.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On R. Kelly being sexually abused himself as a child \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What R. Kelly was as a child was raped and molested. He uses the word \"molested.\" ... So he has some kind of understanding. ... [People on his team] knew that he was abused. Many of them there were Chicago-based people who knew that family members had been abusing him as a child. That's deep trauma that needs real healing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm not saying that at 52, which is the age R. Kelly is right now, when he has two very young women living with him, whose parents are looking for them, that there's some magical age when you are supposed to have a healing, because many people don't heal their entire lifetimes. I have childhood trauma that I'm still trying to heal and I'm five years younger than R. Kelly. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's cliché to say, but almost all abusers have been abused, but not all people who have been abused become abusers. So there comes a time when R. Kelly is absolutely responsible for the harm that he's caused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On why she wants to do this work \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I started writing about hip-hop as a 19-year-old film student in New York, I was calling out the misogyny and the violence against women. And I'm sad to say I don't feel that there's been too much progress made.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I come from all-black Detroit city and I live and breathe in black spaces. And I want them to be safe not just for my daughter and me, but [also for] black women who don't want that safety for themselves, who've internalized the misogyny and don't \u003cem>think\u003c/em> that they deserve the safety and justice that they deserve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Heidi Saman and Thea Chaloner produced and edited this interview for broadcast.

Much progress has been made, not just in terms of holding famous abusers accountable, but also in terms of opening up the conversation so everyone can enjoy more safety and autonomy in their personal lives. But Chris Brown's arrest has revealed how many people still don't understand the nature of, and motivations behind, sexual assault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.sarsas.org.uk/myths-about-rape/\">rape and sexual abuse support group\u003c/a> in the UK characterizes rape as \"an act of violence and control.\" Merced's \u003ca href=\"http://www.valleycrisiscenter.org/sexual-assault/myths-about-sexual-assault\">Valley Crisis Center agrees\u003c/a>. \"Rape is not about sex,\" the organization's website states. \"Rape is about having power and control over another person.

But Chris Brown's arrest has revealed how many people still don't understand the nature of, and motivations behind, sexual assault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.sarsas.org.uk/myths-about-rape/\">rape and sexual abuse support group\u003c/a> in the UK characterizes rape as \"an act of violence and control.\" Merced's \u003ca href=\"http://www.valleycrisiscenter.org/sexual-assault/myths-about-sexual-assault\">Valley Crisis Center agrees\u003c/a>. \"Rape is not about sex,\" the organization's website states. \"Rape is about having power and control over another person. Three out of five rapists are also in consenting sexual relationships. This myth takes the blame off of the rapist and does not hold him accountable for his actions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The assumption that rape is a crime specific to the less attractive people of the world—something that sexy people simply have no use for—is a dangerous stumbling block for survivors seeking justice. And the myth that desperate men just can't help themselves \u003ca href=\"https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/in-love-and-war/201211/she-asked-it-the-impact-rape-myths\">has been proven\u003c/a> to imbue sexual assaulters with an even greater sense of entitlement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown was ultimately \u003ca href=\"https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/8494558/chris-brown-denies-rape-allegation-charges-dropped-free?utm_source=twitter&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral\">released without charge\u003c/a>, and fans who rushed to his defense felt \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/LittleBigShemmy/status/1087840033866956800\">vindicated\u003c/a>. But if there is a lesson to be learned from this whole sorry situation, it's that myths around sexual assault and predators remain prevalent.

Every week, Pen talks to movers and shakers about how the Bay Area shapes what they create, and how they shape the place we call home.","imageSrc":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Rightnowish-Podcast-Tile-500x500-1.jpg","imageAlt":"KQED Rightnowish with Pendarvis Harshaw","officialWebsiteLink":"/podcasts/rightnowish","meta":{"site":"arts","source":"kqed","order":"5"},"link":"/podcasts/rightnowish","subscribe":{"npr":"https://www.npr.org/podcasts/721590300/rightnowish","rss":"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/programs/rightnowish/feed/podcast","apple":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rightnowish/id1482187648","stitcher":"https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/kqed/rightnowish","google":"https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vS1FJTkMxMjU5MTY3NDc4","spotify":"https://open.spotify.com/show/7kEJuafTzTVan7B78ttz1I"}},"jerrybrown":{"id":"jerrybrown","title":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown","tagline":"Lessons from a lifetime in politics","info":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown brings listeners the wisdom of the former Governor, Mayor, and presidential candidate.
