In a series of tweets that have since been deleted, Rapper Azealia Banks called for the brutal gang-rape by Black men of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin. It was all supposedly a response to an article that quoted Palin as saying African Americans accepted slavery willingly.
The problem is that the article in question wast even real
it was satire from a fake news site.
So, Sarah Palin took to Facebook to dish out an epic response:
Here are Palins comments in full:
Hey Female Rapper listen up, little darling. No one has any idea what youre wigging out about in these bizarre, violent rants against me, but youre obviously not exercising enough intelligence to acknowledge youve been sucked into believing some fake interview in which I supposedly offered comments representing the antithesis of my truth.
In this life, youre blessed to have been given an influential platform. So have I. Why dont we strengthen both our platforms and work together on something worthwhile like condemning racism, along with empowering young women to defend themselves against a most misogynist, degrading, devastating assault perpetrated by evil men rape.
Thanks. And now Ill go through my young daughters playlist to make sure there hasnt been any inadvertent addition of any anti-woman, pro-rape garbage that you seem to endorse, which perpetuates the cultural challenges we face in America. I encourage other parents to do the same.
God bless you Ms. Banks, as you consider a change of heart.
Sarah Palin
