Logan was also in attendance at a protest alongside his girlfriend, Josie Canseco, marching and demanding equality.
As for what he said on his podcast that left everyone pleasantly surprised, he argued that ‘It is not enough to be ‘not racist.’ You have to be anti racist. Condemn all those who feign superiority because of the color of their skin. Friends. Hold friends accountable. Hold family accountable. Hold yourself accountable. Most importantly, we must hold authorities accountable — police officers, politicians. all policy makers. Like Killer Mike said, ‘BULLY the politicians at the voting booth.’ Make your voice heard. Attend a protest. Speak up against injustice.’
He also acknowledged he has white privilege and dragged people who still insist it does not exist.
‘You are delusional, and you’re part of the problem. I can count on zero hands the times I have feared for my life at a routine traffic stop. That’s never happened.’
The video started to go viral online and many applauded Logan for what he had to say all the while being quite taken aback that the problematic YouTuber has this well-spoken side to him.
