This morning, the Game announced on Instagram that he would lead a protest through the streets of Los Angeles, with the goal of ending up at the LAPD headquarters. He referred to the protest as Operation H.U.N.T.—an acronym for both Hate Us Not Today and Hunt Us Not Today. “Objective: to make the Californian government & it’s law branches aware that from today forward, we will be UNIFIED as minorities & we will no longer allow them to hunt us or be hunted by us !!!” he wrote as part of an extended note. Snoop Dogg is involved in the protest, too. On Instagram, both rappers posted videos of them leading the protest.
Yesterday, the Game was one of many artists who spoke out about the shootings of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling.
