After over three years of chaos and controversy, the Jussie Smollett case has finally come to an end.

Now I’m not going to go into detail and bring up past context about what this whole fiasco was this whole fraud – and the fraud was more than what Jussie Smollett was accused of, it was what the white media and the racist forces behind it that were trying to make it into.

The whole Jussie situation was absolutely nothing. It was nothing to it. It’s not important at all any more than the second trial of O.J. Simpson out in Las Vegas was.

The white supremacists, on the other hand, need us to think that it was.

Because they’re trying to tell us that they somehow handed us an “L” when they didn’t.

This entire thing was nothing more than a white media invention.

They were the ones who decided that they wanted to try to make a big deal out of it.

Jussie Smollett wasn’t somebody that the Black community holds up on a pedestal; we didn’t even know who he was before…
