SA racism far beyond that of America – US house DJ

Osunlade’s Facebook post called for an international boycott of South Africa by artists from around the world. Osunlade states that “I experienced racism far beyond that of America which I thought was impossible. Not only have blacks been trained to walk with their tails between their legs like well-trained monkeys”.

Osunlade openly states he will not be returning to support South Africa, a state he feels is still gripped by an ‘Apartheid’ like system of “white supremacy”.

With his comments going viral, Bingham has clearly felt the need to respond, claiming that Osunlade “crossed a f***ing line”.

Bingham retaliated by saying “HOMEBOY you left Jozi and went to PARIS LONDON AND AMSTERDAM – The architects of imperialism in Africa. Easy to grandstand and call for a boycott in a country where you aint been booked for ten years.”

“I am a black woman who has been treated like shit in London, Paris AND New York; and has never been treated with such respect as I have been here in South Africa,” the songstress said.

While Bingham agrees with elements of what Osunlade stated, she feels the DJ took things a step too far.

“You were angry and rightfully so. But you flew off the handle and attacked the very people you purport to support … Your post was some ego-drenched reactionary bulls**t.”

Public opinion and response has been huge on social media, so much that Bingham released a further post on Facebook, explaining she does not “like contributing to the negative energy. I asked that he be fair and am guilty of doing exactly what I accused him of doing and that’s letting my emotions and initial anger that I haven’t fully sorted out myself take over”.
