Sharpton Watch Day 01 - Where in the World Is Rev. AL???
Monday, May 14, 2007 at 12:17PM The Blogmother
As all of you know, last week I put up a post regarding comments DL Hughley made on The Tonight Show regarding the women of Rutgers. Read it here.
You might not know that last week I also sent a letter to MediaMatters.org and Rev. Al Sharpton, two of the main characters in the melodrama that was the Imus Bhuhaha. In that letter I asked Rev Al and Media Matters if they were going to address DL Hughley and ask Viacom to pull the plug on his new reality TV show on BET. I was met with RADIO SILENCE.
So until such a time as the Reverend Al issues a statement, post card, smoke signal, carrier pigeon message, addressing DL's comments, WhatAboutOurDaughters.org will be featuring THE SHARPTON WATCH. Today is Day ONE.
It wasn't cool when a white male said it. It shouldn't be cool when DL says it. Yes, you have a right to say whatever you want to say, but you don't get to be subsidized for saying it. Defund the War on Black Women!

What do you want Sharpton to do though?
You know that is a good question. I guess I just want him to acknowledge that DL was wrong to talk about those girls in that way.
A press release criticizing the comments on the Tonight Show.
CALL REVEREND AL NOW LADIES! I tried emailing but it wouldn't go through. So I called Sharpton's crisis network directly at 212-690-3070. They were rude, curt, and pretended to be unaware of the situation. So ladies, I ask you to call them directly at 212 690 3070 and demand an answer.
