Could you imagine being nominated for a Grammy, and turning it down cause of "white guilt"

Three of the five acts nominated for the 2021 best children's album Grammy Award are saying "no thanks." They're upset that the contenders in their category are all white.
quote:
One of them is Alastair Moock, whose nominated album, Be a Pain, is about American heroes who stood up for their principles: The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., Harvey Milk, Rosa Parks, the Parkland, Fla., shooting student protesters and others.
Upon hearing the news he was nominated along with three other white male acts and one white woman, Moock smacked his head. "After this year, to have an all-white slate of nominees seemed really tone-deaf," he says.
quote:
"We thought that it was the strongest thing we could do, to stand with people of color whose albums are too often left out of the Grammy nominations," says Joe Mailander, one of the Okee Dokee Brothers. He hopes to expand notions of what children's music is. "This is not just white guys with guitars playing for kids. We want to welcome all different types of music to this community."

So now there will be an asterisk. Nominated because some white guy declined. Forever grateful

Marlon Brando started this when he turned down an Oscar win

No one gives a flying frick about Grammys, Oscars, etc. They have people that have cooking videos on YouTube that are more well known and draw more attention than whoever the frick Alistair Moock is. So he might as well have just accepted his award and moved on.

No, because I’m a talented musician.

I thought he just couldn’t stand up because of a wounded knee.
I’ll show myself out.

These white guilt people have to got to be the most pathetic people in our society.

They got nominated in the first place because they produced white guilt children’s music, then experienced white guilt themselves when nominated.

Such unmitigated self-flagellation and conspicuous genuflection to dogma. So weak.

They still have the Grammy's?
Dumbass turns down dumbass award for dumbass reason.

I wish these people would start being real heroes and fighting their white privilege with a self inflicted .45 to the dome
