    I think the division between white and black America is a false one

I-i-i-in what way

    the cause of white America's apathy towards black America.

The cause of the apathy is stems from racism (and to a lesser extent, classism), not a division that "doesn't exist" (it totally does)

    People that hate Iggy because she sounds too black

There's a difference between hating Iggy because she sounds "too black" and hating Iggy because she appropriates the shit out of hiphop culture and people eat it up
