Blacks with means have a responsibility for those without

Belafonte is right; celebrities do have a responsibility.

I feel bad for the old crooner Harry Belafonte, Jr. He has almost lived too long. He bemoaned the fact that Beyoncé and her husband Jay-Z haven’t done more to raise the social consciousness of young Black people. He bemoaned their seeming lack of social responsibility.

Beyoncé is so clueless about the charge leveled against her that she defended herself by talking about her charity work. And Jay-Z is just as clueless, as he was caught saying we need less government. Really Jay-Z? Are you really that clueless?
