No Homo

When I learned the RIGHT for gay couples to marry was RESCINDED, I got to thinking about how such a thing could have happened.

According to media reports, every demographic category voted "NO" on the measure, 

save Latinos (53%) and Blacks  (70%). So the minority population decided to vote 

TAKE AWAY the rights of others, unbelievable.

But instead of dwelling on 

blah, blah, blah...I got to thinking about how the rampant, turn-the-other-cheek (pun intended) homophobia in minority, especially Black, communities can be rooted out.

Simple answer, Hip-Hop!

The guys at the top of the page are the biggest stars of the most homophobic art form on the planet, which is just fine. However, if you are not going to ADVOCATE for equality of ALL people in your music, then stop bragging, ON WAX, about how many of the products Gay people produce you own.

"I got a Versace this, a Tom Ford that." Give me a break!

There are so many African-Americans that crack jokes about their "Gay Uncle" and use the name of this post, "No Homo", as a if it where a non-conjugated verb at the Palin Family reunion, then turn and brag about their new Christian Dior glasses.

Am I missing something?

If the Hip-Hop Superstars above can create a ground-swell of demand for products created by the LGBT community, which no sane person can say has not happened, surely they can at least TRY to do the same for their human rights.

Am I wrong?
