Chicago - A message from the station manager

Video Of Spike Lee’s Appearance At Chicago State University That He Inexplicably Doesn’t Want You To See

Does The Wrong Thing

Maybe Lee didn’t want it gotten out that he said, “We’ve got to start taking education more seriously as a people and as a nation. Education is key.”
On the other hand, maybe this wouldn’t be well-received in all quarters: “If you’re on the corner, drinking a 40 oz. of that malt crack liquor, smoking a joint, holding your privates; pants dropped below your waist – then you’re hip, you’re black, you’re gangster . . . but what you really are is ignorant. And the crime is they don’t even know they’re ignorant.”
In any case, Big Marcus wasn’t going to be denied. Well, if just for a brief moment. Here’s his video, uploaded to YouTube on Sunday.
