Racism Schmacism
by James Edwards
Amy Winehouse is a Jewish singer from England who sounds black, and has made quite a name for herself the past couple years with her music and her lifestyle. She’s a hard core alcoholic who’s become known for canceling shows at the last minute, or performing so drunk she can barely stand up.
Her biggest hit is a song about saying no to those who want her to go to rehab. Her scuzzball husband is http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=4350, and there was talk that she would be going there, too.
Now the British press is saying her career may be ruined because a video has surfaced of her and a friend singing the words “Blacks, http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=4528 and Nips. Gooks and Nips!” to the tune of a children’s nursery rhyme. It also shows her using crack, but never mind the crack pipe; here’s the headline – Racist Video That Shames Addict Amy. Which shows their priorities. Being a crackhead is far, far less offensive than saying a few a naughty words in the privacy of her home.
