Couldn't disagree with you more strongly. The Jazz Fans Against Racism project was directly inspired by Donovan and I've paid close attention to how he talks about things publicly. He picks and chooses his spots. He doesn't always try to frame it to appease white people (interestingly, since some people say he's a phony who is just trying to do good PR). He's also inspired a bunch of young people in this state, and even some older folks, to think in new ways, to be open to different voices. I've seen it repeatedly myself. Your condescending and paternalistic description of his efforts is gross and incomplete. Given your other participation in this thread I'm not convinced you're even open to talking about it beyond what you already think, though.
