Activist and writer dream hampton let the cat out of the bag over the weekend and let the world know that the Carters are move involved in protests than people think.
In Tweets that were later deleted, dream said “When we needed money for bail for Baltimore protestors, I hit Jay up, as I had for Ferguson, wire tens of thousands in mins. When BLM needed infrastructure money for the many chapters that we’re growing like beautiful dandelions, Carters wrote a huge check. … and more stuff, too much to list actually, that they always insist folk keep quiet.”
Somehow we’re not surprised by this news.
Dream also let the world know that Jay Z provided the I Can’t Breathe shirts to the Brooklyn Nets several months ago.
Although the Carters aren’t vocal about many of their philanthropic endeavors, we definitely believe that they are involved in the community. Jay Z and Beyoncé both have foundations, scholarships and participate in various charities.
We love that they’re using their influence for good.
