So, the bed intruder video is the most popular YouTube video of 2010. To say the least, I am bothered by this because it shows how insensitive we are about violence against poor black women. Yeah, this is not a long blog, but I just want to go on record for saying this is problematic and wrong.

Of course, if you want to know in detail why the popularity of this video is wrong, please read my other blogs, The Same Ole Monsters Remain: Antoine Dodson and LGBTQ Youth and The Bed Intruder Song is not an R. Kelly Jam: So, stop bobbing your head to Sexual Trauma!!
