Chrisette Michele cannot get a break. After agreeing to perform at Donald Trump’s Inauguration, Chrisette Michele has been bashed by social media. The lashing became so bad that she wrote a letter via Instagram to justify her performance.
“My heart is broken for our country, for the hopes of our children, for the fights of those who came before us.
I cry at the thought that Black History, American History might be in vain.
This country has had great moments. God has shined His light upon us.
Today, I hope that Great Moments begin in peaceful & progressive conversation. I am willing to be a bridge. I don’t mind “These Stones”, if they allow me to be a voice for the voiceless.
I am here.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “Our lives begin to end, the day we become silent about what matters,”. I am here, representing you, because this is what matters.” – Chrisette Michele

We Can’t Be Present If We’re Silent”
Girl Bye! We all know you are getting paid $750,000 for this performance. So if it’s the money that provokes you to perform that is simply okay just own it; although, Chrisette Michele was offered money not to perform. What are your thoughts, Is she wrong for performing at the inauguration and why?
