R&B singer Tank has decided not to go ahead with performing the national anthem at Tuesday’s LA Clippers game. You see, Tank is black and based on what the Clippers owner Donald Sterling said, Tank – because of his color – is not allowed.
In explaining his decision to TMZ, Tank said;
“As an African-American man and artist, I must take a stand on a matter that is so deeply personal to me.
“In light of the recent disturbing and offensive allegations, in good conscience, I cannot move forward with my scheduled appearance at Tuesday’s Los Angeles Clippers game.”
