Civil Rights activists denounce ‘Monsters against Madonna’ web campaign

By 

Chicago Civil Rights Examiner January 14, 2012


Civil rights activists as well as students all over the city gathered at Chicago’s Martin Luther King Jr. Library to talk about Martin Luther King Junior’s legacy. The group also talked about how racism is still prevalent in today’s society and pointed to a web and twitter campaign by Lady Gaga fans hoping to destroy the success of Madonna’s new album and tour. 

The site features a gorilla with a caption that reads, “Here is the next child Madonna is planning to adopt.” Another post insults body parts of Muslims and several other posts are ageist in nature. “I’m not a Madonna fan, but when did something like this become acceptable just because people have free access to the Internet?” asked Martin Luther King College Professor Albert Winston.” Several others noted that the “Monsters against Madonna” campaign was also trending on Twitter, with no repercussions

Alan Goldberg, a teacher at a private Jewish school in Skokie, talked about websites ran by conservatives such as Andrew Breitbart and Michelle Malkin where nasty comments about homosexuals, Latinos, and African Americans have become the norm. “I’m not saying that we should ban free speech. But it becomes a point where free speech is being abused. Kids look at these websites and think it’s okay to bully others because—why not, adults do it!”

All of the participants of the discussion plan to participate in several parades during the weekend and this coming Monday. Do you think they are correct in saying that Internet hate speech has gone too far?

                                                                                                                                                                 

Readers, this was written for The Examiner and there is a post on Oh No They Didn't about Rick's Help Mother Monster blog.  Apparently Rick's taken it too far according to some.  

Here's a screen shot of the picture mentioned, obviously in reference to the two African children Madonna adopted from Malawi.



I read the comments on Oh No They Didn't and Anthagio, who posts under the name Schiesse, seems to think the Help Mother Monster site was set up by a Madonna fan to set monsters up, presumably.  He also links to this blog as well as Madonna Scrapbook and Amen Madonna.

Someone should tell this poor, confused little boy that there is a vast difference between blogging about a pop star you believe is plagiarizing and violating civil rights such as posting the gorilla picture to mock African children and adults.

I may have pissed off a lot of Gaga fans but I certainly didn't become a topic at a civil rights gathering!

If you're on Twitter, you can do a search for helpmothermonster and you can read exactly what people are saying about that blog.
