Madonna is upset about the killing of George Floyd by four policemen in Minneapolis. It’s understandable. But her response is over the top and awful, making things so much worse with a final declaration of “Fuck the police!” What followed that post is Madonna’s adopted teenage son, David Banda, dancing to Michael Jackson’s “They Don’t Care About Us,” a song that when it was initially released carried an anti-Semitic epithet that had to be expunged from broadcast versions but remains in some iterations. Someone’s just got to stop her from posting anymore to Instagram until she thinks through what this all means. She’s losing more points than she’s gaining. Also, while David is certainly a good dancer, and I know his intentions are pure, the sight of him expressing himself in political dance in Madonna’s expensive kitchen with a French bulldog in the background is a crazy juxtaposition of messages, isn’t it?
