6. I don't agree.

I think that what Jay-Z is doing will have a far greater and longer lasting impact of social justice for Blacks and other people of color.

I have been of the mindset for a long time that other than focusing on the right issue, Kapernack seemed to have had no clue about how to move to the next level. Jay-Z has been actively mentoring young Black entertainers, businesspeople and aspiring professionals for years. Silicon Valley now takes Black startups seriously because of what Jay-Z did in that area, VC firms now know that is they pass on that Black person that has an interesting idea, Jay-Z or those working with him will give the Black entrepreneur a fair hearing and likely investment. I just don't see Kap extending his influence into tangible change the way Jay-Z has.
