Adam Calhoun - Racism (Reaction) This one got real!!!

A very smart underrated black man said it best “ racism is not dead but it is on life-support kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people that get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as racist” ~Thomas Sowell~

Black dude in the middle wearing the white shirt is always the voice of reason. That dude is open-minded as f—. I’d love to buy him a beer 🍺 and hear his thoughts on a lot of topics.

The man in the white shirt has my utmost respect bc he’s done his research on ACAL and he knows what he was trying to do with the Racism video! Way to go young man!! Much respect! Please never stop sharing your opinion and views!!

As a metal head, Tom Macdonald, Burden, Mesus and Adam Calhoun got me into this type of rap. Respect for doing this. It took balls to write that song, but I think it's something the world needs.

That IS where Adam is from. He grew up in the hood in Chicago. He was a battle rapper and gained so much respect. The point of this song is both races are stereotyped. The first part of the song talks about “White Trash” in the trailer park, wife getting beat and smoking around the kids and such. Most people would consider that white trash. Then there are Hillbillies….. those are the country folk that work hard and hunt their own food and make a good life for themselves in the country. Then he goes on to talk about the stereotype of a “N###@“ having saggy pants, selling crack and not taking care of their kids, that’s the stereotype, right? Then in the second half of that verse he talks about “black folks” that work hard and want the violence to stop in their neighborhood and just raise their kids and live life. So to put the song into perspective, white trash and N are judged the same and the government did it. They penned us against each other and they sit back and watch the hate and feed off of it. You can’t let that happen.

This song is meant to promote thought between all races and what is happening. And it looks like it def worked with you guys. Music that starts conversations is what we need. We are not as different as they want us to think

Adam did his job by making you think. I love that you guys are legitimately talking to eachother and giving your perspective. THATS what this country is about.

Props to my dude in the middle who understood the context of this track. I know exactly where Adam is coming from. I live in the hood currently as a single father. I get along with everybody here. Alot of shit goes down but i mind my own business and never have problems. We all here struggling. And as a white dude i can see how it is to get stuck in the projects. For one these projects are set up to try keep u in them. The more money money u make working the harder it is. The less I work and do side jobs the more I save. It's all backwards. It's designed to keep certain folks in one area for others political gain. It took me living in it to realize it. It's called economic privilege. Same as living in trailer parks or any housing project. They want u to live in these areas so they can get your vote. They want people to depend on the government and control u and for u not to succeed

How folks react to this song shows either their own racism and ignorance or their open mindedness and ability to swallow factual stereo types. Adam knew that. The middle guy got it. Great reaction.

This song is about racist stereotypes of both black and white. It goes deep into the words people use to blindly put a lable on others of all races. It's not one sided, it stands in the center to show words used blindly by whites and blacks about each other, while pointing out all races have good and bad.

I’ve watched a lot of reactions, this is one of the best I have watched. You could actually see all the different emotions you were going through. The conversation was real, and authentic. I enjoyed hearing your perspective, and in reality we are more alike than different. “They” fight so hard to keep us divided.

Respect you guys for stepping back and trying to understand the message! RESPECT

I was a trump supporter twice, I'm pasty white and live in bumfuck nowhere idaho, yet watching this with you guys is like hanging out with my childhood friends. I just don't understand how people really think we all are different. Guess my mom just raised me right cuz i love you guys and your channel

Wow dude in the middle got me tearing up cause he gets it. And I love he's trying to make the other 2 HEAR it as well. Great reaction!!

My father always told me that the greatest way for us to come together and talk about issues is through music. Music is a power that we as a people have the most control of and a way to get people thinking and questioning things that they originally we never would have thought about. Music is a great power.

Y’all’s initial reaction when he said the word made my skin go cold lol but I’m so glad that you fellas listen to the actual words and message behind the music! Absolutely love this guys!

Adam from Chicago he filmed this in hood in Chicago it's about steiro types

You guys are the purest example of the song achieving what it was supposed to. Generating thought, sparking healthy debate, and coming to the eventual collective understanding that we're very much the same. The line that hits home for me is, "they pin us against each other, sit back and watch it happen". I grew up with a black family, in a black neighborhood, with black customs, values, morals, and respect. Aaaannnnnddddd I never saw a difference until I went to school and and my white gym teacher told me that me and my family aren't the same, and I need to act accordingly....... Fuck that guy. I missed y'all. I appreciate y'all. Keep doing what you do, please. Love and respect from the 209.

New subscriber here…I commend you guys so much for reacting to this video, but more importantly tackling such a tough topic. Your objectivity on this was amazing! Can’t wait to see what’s next!

I'ma do my part to help you fellas make it to the next level. My brothers on the ends were truly triggered by a word that I'm sure they sling around on the reg. As far as my brother in the middle of the squad, I don't know ya but I love ya brother. Keep being the voice of reason and keep helping your homies to read between the lines, they need you, whether they admit it or not. I know this video is old but so am I. Keep in 100 to your fans and moreso to yourselves.👊👊
