While I was out running errands I was listening to a Katt Williams interview and he said that he couldn't be a black only comic because blacks are only 14% of the population( paraphrase) and my light bulb came on.Stacey Abrams made the same type of comment recently, so my question to that is are we wasting our time with politicians and entertainers?

Well, this Individuals are trying to make some money, you wouldn't expect you hem to Target only a specific market, that would only dwindle their profits. Maybe you can try not to be too much in anyine because everyone is going to seek to favor their own interests before anything else.

That's a gesture to drag the attention, I don't think though, that blacks are just 14% of world population, blacks are everywhere you go. Unless the celeb isn't talking about races, because I see lots of blacks around the corners of the world both in television and in reality.

    GD we are not 13 or 14%!!! They have been saying that SAME FUCKING number since I was in the 1st fucking grade and I just turn 50 the other day. #MissMeWithThat bull shit. Pinkertons have been having blacks parroting that shit for too long GD!!!!

    And to answer you question. YES they are both a waste of our time and efforts. Phuck'em 2x

    They can say all they want , but truth be told they were the ones who didn't make good use of the platform that they were in. It ain't no black man's fault If after reaching the peak of their careers they lost it all.
