What Nick Cannon said is exactly how misinformation spreads.
Yes, the KKK was tied to Southern Democrats in the 1800s. That part is true.
But leaving out what happened next changes the entire meaning.
In the 1960s, after Lyndon B. Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the racists who supported segregation did not just disappear…
They left the Democratic Party and shifted politically. That is a huge part of the story that keeps getting left out.
AND THAT MATTERS.
Because when we, especially Black voices with big platforms, repeat half stories, it does not just stay a conversation. It spreads and it can be used against us.
We cannot afford to be loud and wrong at the same time, especially right now.
