Hate produces more hate. This isn\u2019t solving problems. Your round table discussions are not solving problems.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet out in neighborhoods and help your children and youth of all colors that are suffering,\u201d Lesli urged. \u201cEducate, mentor, love. Blexitfoundation.org.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>BLEXIT, according to its website, is \u201cdedicated to the advancement of urban and minority communities by encouraging youth to seek and take advantage of opportunities in 21st Century America. The organization promotes educational initiatives, pursues criminal justice reform, educates minority communities regarding America\u2019s founding principles, and highlights the importance of free markets and entrepreneurship as the antidote to poverty.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Owens, who is set to host an anticipated show with The Daily Wire,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberty.edu\/news\/2019\/09\/06\/candace-owens-and-husband-discuss-brexit-blexit-and-the-conservative-cause\/\">said<\/a>\u00a0in 2019 that one of her goals with BLEXIT is to \u201cchallenge the narrative.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wanted to challenge black Americans to consider what [President Donald] Trump actually asked us, which is, \u2018Black America, what do you have to lose? In my opinion, the answer was, \u2018absolutely nothing,&#8217;\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Wallen\u2019s mother is not the only family member vouching for the singer. Last month, sister Ashlyne Wallen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/morgan-wallen-sister-slams-cancel-culture-following-brothers-deplatforming\">ripped<\/a> the phenomenon of cancel culture for leaving \u201cno room for forgiveness and growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are only 3 things you should ever do about a mistake: admit it, learn from it, and don\u2019t repeat it,\u2019\u201d Ashlyne\u2019s post said. \u201cCancel culture is the worst thing that has come out of our digital world. It leaves no room for forgiveness and growth, in turn, leaving no opportunity for individuals who have made mistakes to learn from them. If you make a mistake or do something stupid then apologize, correct your mistake, and learn through personal growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe world we live in thrives off drama and bringing others down. I refuse to be part of that,\u201d she added. \u201cIf my family or my friends make a mistake and apologize, I\u2019m going to listen, accept it, and expect them to learn from their mistake.\u00a0Someone who is truly sorry should be forgiven \u2014 not continuously bashed. Your past mistakes do not define you; it is how you choose to move forward that does.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>TMZ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmz.com\/2021\/02\/02\/morgan-wallen-n-word-nashville-neighbors\/\">published<\/a> the video reportedly recorded by a neighbor showing Wallen using expletives and the N-word after a night out in Nashville with friends.\u00a0TMZ reported:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p id=\"cb-1816e1e2d56dbc6a5ee4b065e9a550a0\" class=\"canvas-block canvas-block-permalink canvas-text-block canvas-text-block-permalink canvas-text-block--default\" data-context=\"{\"section\":\"permalink\",\"name\":\"text_block\"}\"><em>Morgan Wallen returned home Sunday from a rowdy night with friends, and as he walked up his driveway he hurled the n-word and other profanities, it\u2019s all on video and Wallen is remorseful.<\/em><\/p>\n<p id=\"cb-12ec34a31c4732d77c6f09d27e4fec94\" class=\"canvas-block canvas-block-permalink canvas-text-block canvas-text-block-permalink canvas-text-block--default\" data-context=\"{\"section\":\"permalink\",\"name\":\"text_block\"}\"><em>The country star and a group of buddies had just spent a night out in Nashville.
