Al Sharpton continues to stoke riot fires and yet he was a “go to” guy in the VH-1 rockumentary “The Night James Brown Saved Boston” (Al wasn’t even 14 at the time).
Mr. Sharpton is no community leader, he is a racist, an antisemite, a race hustler, and a community agitator.
Cornell West was also a “go to” authority in that documentary, by the way.
James Brown had nothing to do with those guys, he was fairly conservative in real life.
