Kendrick seems like he’s becoming, for black people, what artists like Johnny Cash and Woody Guthrie were for white people. I don’t think that should be minimized. Artists may not be out fighting on their own, but they bring people together and I think music in particular has a really powerful effect of bringing people together for a purpose. Musicians have become the faces of movements many times before.
