What is your idea on Why Nipsey Hussle was killed. Was it because of Dr. Sebi ( this is your personal option )
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
More than a rapper, Nipsey established himself as a community fixture in his native South L.A., where he accrued local esteem by performing charitable acts both strategic (like opening a co-working space and STEM center) and full of heart (such as paying for funerals and giving out shoes to children). But as condolences poured out across social media, one insidious story started bubbling up in various corners of the Internet: a conspiracy theory that the government had plotted Nipsey’s death.
Musings on the theory, which were shockingly abundant, hinged on the idea that the government executed Nipsey to silence his upcoming documentary on Dr. Sebi, a Honduran herbalist named Alfredo Bowman who was acquitted of criminal charges in the 1980s for practicing medicine without a license in New York. According to the whisperers, the documentary would purportedly reveal that the cure for HIV/AIDS was kept from society by the powers that be. When Nick Cannon announced that he would finish Nipsey's work, posting photos of Dr. Sebi with notes about Nipsey, it sent the whisperers into a tizzy to “protect” him from Big Pharma, too.In reality, Dr. Sebi was about as much of a doctor as Dr. Pepper. He claimed he cured patients of HIV/AIDS with an alkaline diet, which he said could regulate the body's pH or acidity levels—food intake can't change the body's blood acidity levels—and was arrested for money laundering several times in 2016. The idea that the government murdered a hip-hop artist to cover up an herbalist documentary is assuredly untrue. But there’s something to the anxieties driving it.
The U.S. government has carried out a number of unthinkable—but verifiable—contemptible acts that seem straight out of fiction: poisoning alcohol during Prohibition; covertly bringing Nazi scientists to the United States; the CIA’s mind-control experiments. As today’s QAnon believers and anti-vaxxers demonstrate, conspiracy theorizing isn’t unique to any single American group. But the black community, in particular, has been on the receiving end of real and outrageously pernicious endeavors by the state, and community pillars have been targeted by the government. There are sweeping examples, such as discriminatory mortgage lending called “redlining,” which, though now illegal, still shapes our nation’s highly segregated housing, neighborhoods, and school districts.
