I am proud of George Clooney. I think he’s one of those people are lobbying for a Department of Peace. I hope it becomes a reality.
Where have Martin King III, Ben Jealous, and all of the Black celebrities who jumped on the Kony 2012 imperialist intervention bandwagon been while the Libyan version of the KKK has been lynching, raping, terrorizing, and torturing the Black people of Libya?
