Jay-Z Seeks to Profit from the War Machine
Black Agenda Radio with Nellie Bailey and Glen Ford

🖨️ Print Article

The rapper is jockeying to join football league owners in glorifying the flag and luring volunteers into the US war machine. “A lot of that is being marketed through the NFL” and “through commercials that promote the military,” said Jefferson.
