Brandon T. Jackson On Why He Called Out Jim Jones: "We Want To Be Accepted By Our Abusers"

www.comedyhype... - Brandon T. Jackson continues his talk with us. In this moment, Jackson speaks on why he decided to respond to a video of rapper Jim Jones being upset that he wasn't being treated fair at a Gucci store. Instagram: @ComedyHype & Twitter: @ComedyHype_

[@rodneycobb9190]

Imagine how incredibly STUPID these designers thinkk we are. So let me get this straight...you're spending 29K and being treated like some shit, and you're STILL in the store? I see why they treat us the way they do. SMH

[@rooseveltdarbey9493]

Rodney Cobb exactly so stupid and weak minded, they definitely laugh at us.

[@agameenthusiast5513]

They continue to treat us like crap because they know that most of us so-called blacks are suffering from low self esteem and have no dignity within ourselves.

[@B.Nutter91]

The sad truth

[@davidanthony1477]

Agreed 100%! Designers think we are stupid just like the regents, who run the Universities in the SEC, think black college football players and their parents are stupid. They allow their sons to go to the institutions who hated them and had to be forced to let them attend instead of improving their own HBCU's. Designers, College Regents its all the same black folks are easily manipulated.

I’m not really gonna tell folks how to spend their money, but Jim Jones was looking very foolish on this take. He got on video and ranting about how he was being mistreated in a store yet he stayed and spent his money with them anyway? That makes him look like a complete dumbass. Jim walked in Gucci store and had the option to walk out, but he chose to stay and still buy their brand. He could have made a video exposing them by telling black folks not to patronize their business. Celebrity or not if an establishment doesn’t think my money or time is worthy, then I’m leaving.

It's not just about being accepted by White people, it's also about trying to be accepted by your own people, your peers, being accepted in certain groups, in cliques or organizations This reminds me how things where when I was in high school, I went to predominantly all Black high school. The cool kids, the popular kids, the kids everyone wanted to be like and around, where the kids that wore certain labels, dress certain way and who could afford to get their hair done every other week. Their parents could afford to dress them in certain expensive labels, because they had good jobs, working in the steel mill, doctors and etc. When I was a senior in high school, kids where coming to school wearing leather coats trimmed in fur, Jordans, girls carrying Louis Vuitton, Dooney & Bourke and coach purses. They didn't hang around the poor kids, they hung around people like them and the athletes. Even now Society makes it seem like If you have money, wear certain labels, that you are somebody, and you will be accepted in to certain circles It's also is about showing who has the most,. Keeping up the the Joneses I got more than the other guy. It's also about status quo Rap music videos today, with the young rappers and wanna be rappers, They all show the same thing on their videos girls, drugs,guns money, cars that they don't really own, they rent. Trying to act like they really living a certain lifestyle.
