Nicki Minaj does have a human side after all. I must admit, some things that the pop star has done and said in the past have made me question whether or not she shows her human side, but after tweeting about Sandra Bland, it became obvious that Nicki Minaj is indeed human.
Sandra Bland was a woman that was wrongly arrested and beaten by a police officer in Texas after being told to throw away a cigarette that she was smoking in her automobile. When she refused, the officer began to arrest her. It is important to note that she did obey the officer, but she did talk back to her. Talking back to a police officer is never a reason to be executed. She basically didn't want to willingly let her rights be taken away. Sandra Bland was an activist who was outraged as many people have been over the vast amount of black killings in the USA and abroad. She envisioned herself as a leader who would fight these injustices.
Once the police officers locked her up after smashing her arm and face against the concrete, they claim that somehow she managed to kill herself, which becomes more suspicious due to the fact that the police officers chose to put her in a cell that was hidden from cameras. Also, as not typical in any jail, there was a plastic bag in which they say she hung herself.
Even more interesting, the sheriff for that office had other mysterious suicides in his jail cell, which is not typical of any jail to just happen by coincidence. As we further investigate the sheriff, we find that he has a record of being racist. And get this, we also find that his wife is the coroner. How convenient! No one expected a fair investigation, but you don't have to be a genius to figure out that something is certainly suspicious and Nicki Minaj demanded answers about the mysterious murder of Sandra Bland. It's because we already know that Sandra Bland did not take her life.
Sandra Bland had everything going for her, including studies and a job that she was excited about beginning. She was also happy that she was going to see her mother, who it appears, didn't have enough money to post her bail. She has claimed to suffer depression, but she has never been diagnosed with any disorder.
Nicki Minaj posted on Twitter, "If you haven't looked into this story, please do. It's the most disturbing thing going on right now." And she was cosigned by Kim Kardashian who was apparently upset about the murder of Sandra Bland. Kim K posted, "This is all shady!"
Nicki Minaj has truly earned cool points with me. I always seen her as another trashy raptress who was willing to do and say whatever she felt was convenient to make money. Whether for publicity or not, she made a great point and I hope she has touched her fans the way she has touched me.
