Adele Needs To Publicly Recognize Her White Privilege

The Issue

Adele sold over 3.38 million copies of her album "25" and the media is praising her as if Adele's success has everything to do with talent. Rather, it's her white privilege that has put her on top.

Adele's album has sold more than albums from Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Janet Jackson, although these three beautiful ladies all had much better albums that were talked about more. The fawning over Adele by fans and the press continue to show how minorities are repressed in the music business.

We demand that Adele publicly acknowledge that although she has a little bit of talent, it's her white privilege that is selling her album. We also demand that Adele donates her money to African-American causes such as #Blacklivesmatter.
