Future Announces New Partnership With Reebok
Over the weekend, Future announced a new partnership deal with Reebok, Complex points out. The rapper posted pictures of himself modeling the brand’s “Overbranded” InstaPump Fury line, which is set to be released as part of Reebok’s Fall 2016 campaign. Future joins Kendrick Lamar and Swizz Beats on the Reebok roster. “Future exudes the type of fearlessness and authenticity that Reebok Classic stands for,” Todd Krinsky, Global Vice President of Reebok Classic and Entertainment, told Complex. “This partnership not only continues our brand’s longstanding legacy of working with the world’s best hip hop artists, but also solidifies Reebok Classic’s commitment to never back down from pushing boundaries.” Future said of the partnership: “I’m excited to kick off the summer with Reebok by my side. It’s a natural fit for me to work with a brand like Reebok that also shares my beliefs in moving culture forward and being passionate in what you believe in. Not only am I honored, but I feel privileged to be a part of the family.”
Black Congressman Pleads With FBI Director To Do Something About Police Killings
WASHINGTON ― Five hours into a hearing with FBI director James Comey about Hillary Clinton’s emails, Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) changed the subject to something a bit more important: black people being killed by police officers. Cummings, who is black, all but begged Comey to do something to help break the pattern of unarmed black people being killed by police. Just this week, Alton Sterling was shot dead in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, while selling CDs outside of a convenience store, and Philando Castile was shot and killed near St. Paul, Minnesota, after being pulled over for a busted tail light. “Mr. Director, if you do nothing else in your 2,000-plus days left, you have to go help us get a hold of this issue,” Cummings said. “It is so painful. I can’t even begin to tell you.” The Maryland Democrat said he woke up Thursday morning “to my wife literally crying” while watching a video of Sterling being shot. Then she watched the video of Castile bleeding out in his car. “I hope you watch them,” he told Comey. “There’s something wrong with this picture.” Cummings, who represents the majority of the mostly black neighborhoods of Baltimore, said he’s fortunate he’s never been harmed by police. Still, he said he’s been pulled over “50 million times” for no clear reason, and it’s all connected to people of color being targeted by law enforcement. “As an African American man in this country, 66 years old, moving toward the twilight of my life, we cannot allow black men to continue being slaughtered,” he said. Comey sat quietly as Cummings spoke, but didn’t respond.
