The MOBOs, Music Of Black Origin, is that racist?, if there was a MOWO, Music Of White Origin, I am sure there would be quite a few people screaming racist if that was the case

No... because he said ‘abstain from their shops’ during a speech at the protest in Watford. Unless somebody hacked his voice as well.

I think the comment you liked from Mr Williams is telling to be honest.

When I 'like' something, it's either because I see the perspective through experience, through their POV that I can understand or cos it's funny.

Which one do you think I picked...?

Entirely missing the point. If you keep promoting a divided community and hate towards others how will the world ever improve? What is it protesters actually want if it’s not equality and justice?

By eliminating systematic and institutional racism I think would be a good start.

Buying hard dough bread is but a small step on this path. And naan bread. Local Asian shop does a cracking naan bread.

Boxing fans are free to do want they want with their money. We all are. Support local retailers, don’t support local retailers. Buy British, don’t buy British. I support West Indian shops because they are the only ones that sell proper hard dough bread.

It does tickle though me that a black guy urges people to support black businesses and he is automatically a racist and you guys are hopping up and down, frothing with outrage and excitement. It’s not as if knelt on a guy and killed him or anything. He just wants you to buy some hard dough bread.

‘hit them where it hurts’ whatever you say that’s a bad message. So blacks people who’ve been shopping at a butchers owned by a white guy, who has never been racist in his life should boycott his shop? It’s not a message of solidarity. It’s a message of division.

Have you got a link or a video of that mate?

I’m not saying I don’t believe you I’m just saying I haven’t seen anything on it at all.

There's this guy, his tweet before that is 'Right, time do what I do best. Wind people up!`

I appreciate that's only one guy, but I've got mates who went to the London protests and they said there were a few people turning up shouting all lives matter,which is a phrase that's obviously just being used to discredit blm.

Trust me I am not the problem on here. But I’m currently making a list of those that are. Don’t worry, none of the names will surprise you.

A list you say?

Powerful stuff.

Care to answer yet?

Also telling you ignored my first paragraph.

I have no idea your motivation which is precisely why I brought it up. For me personally, I wouldn’t stick a like or approval on any post which had elements I disagreed with so assumed you had similar standards. My apologies.

There is. It’s called the ‘Brit Awards’.

Because there's no such thing as a Black Briton?

The Brit Awards don't celebrate or award Black British artists?

Here I was thinking the BRITs was an all inclusive music award ceremony!
