      This is my Big Daddy His name was James Wesley Merritt and he was the first Black DJ with a signal into Atlanta. He literally faced the Klan to play R&B music, the idea that I should now thank Chicanos for my legacy does not feel good.pic.twitter.com/XLEvBnaLlD

      #respect to your dad and all the pioneers. In SoCal, R & B artists like Brenton Wood, the Temprees, Don & Dewey and so many more have long credited Chicanos for giving their careers a second wind. Now, boogie funk artists do same thanks to Funk Freaks!

      I watched Lalo for about half a year protect his Coco project from claims from Latino people that he was selling out to White people. The idea that Latinos think they can claim another cultures art simply by consuming it is really pissing.

      Thanks, this is itching me. Lets change to Latino culture. Do White folks own the day of the dead cause they bought most of the Coco tickets did they save it anything?

      Not really paying attention. Listening to Keith Sweat after Earth, Wind and Fire and doing my part. Stay woke on Twitter. I'm woke with 'Make It Last Forever.'

          I dislike the meme of woke it tells the Universe you don't want access to the realm of the spirits and your Ancestors. It is also telling it you'd like to go crazy from lack of sleep. I also find it a terrible commentary on your state that things are so bad you can't close eyes
