British rapper Stormzy is donating 10 million pounds (more than $12,590,000) to UK-based causes that empower black people over the next decade.
“The uncomfortable truth that our country continuously fails to recognise and admit is that black people in the UK have been at a constant disadvantage in every aspect of life – simply due to the colour of our skin,” the 26-year-old told The Guardian in a statement on Thursday.
The “Own It” rapper continued, “I’m lucky enough to be in the position I’m in and I’ve heard people often dismiss the idea of racism existing in Britain by saying, ‘If the country’s so racist how have you become a success?!’
“I reject that with this: I am not the UK’s shining example of what supposedly happens when a black person works hard. There are millions of us. We are not far and few.”
He added that people need to stand up and put a stop to the systemic racism that persists.
“We have to fight against the odds of a racist system stacked against us and designed for us to fail from before we are even born,” he said. “Black people have been playing on an uneven field for far too long and this pledge is a continuation in the fight to finally try and even it.”
Last week, Stormzy was seen participating in a Black Lives Matter protest in London and has a long history of being vocal in his stance against racial injustice.
