We’ve read news reports and polls that suggest minorities say they’re less likely to get the COVID-19 vaccine — they were probably listening to Vice President Kamala Harris on TV refusing to say if she’d take a vaccine developed under the Trump administration.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo is on the case, and just like his deeply weird commemorative COVID curve poster, this video from Hip Hop Public Health is a real thing.
Great video from @HHPHorg featuring @THEKINGDMC and more.

Also, how can you "fight fear with facts" when the song fear mongers: "This COVID thing is real and it will find you."

These UNREAL levels of pandering are only going to make Black people who were 100% sold on taking the vaccine, question whether or not they really want to take it. This is getting ridiculous.
— R.Tyrane Tallie (@SpeakRyanSpeak) February 11, 2021
They really think this type of thing works on black folks. God help us.
— JustPassinThru (@holemac1) February 11, 2021
Did you actually sit down with black folks and see why we’re worried about vaccines? Or just jumped straight to black stereotypes?

Wasn’t sure about the microchip before, now im certain of it ???

This is super cringe. The money y’all wasting on these ads could actually go to something that would’ve benefited people
— Regular Dude (@JustinC27) February 11, 2021
No! Black people to not need a hip hop styled beat or lingo to be persuaded into getting a vaccine. Why do you people think that’s the only way for us to absorb critical Information. If anything it makes me and others who feel the same turn away because of this style of marketing
— SC (@KokoBea888) February 11, 2021
This is straight up insulting
— Patrick Bourassa (@thebouras) February 11, 2021
just an incredibly condescending approach.
— R. Dæneel Olivaw (@LeoDaneel) February 11, 2021
“Hey guys be funky fresh like me and get the vaccine! Don’t make me diss you! Not getting vaccinated is wiggety wack homie!”

This is hands down the cringiest animation since Poochie told us to recycle…TO THE EXTREME.
— James Champagne (@JamesCh89793620) February 11, 2021
I don’t trust it even more now. This gives me creepy political vibes, like y’all trying to inject something other than what is said. I’ll pass

9 out of 10 people don’t get sick so let’s put em in a nursing home with people who are. Doesn’t rhyme I’m working on it

You deserve the ratio you’re getting for doing this. You also need to fire the person who thought this was a good idea.
