Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy inspired Bon Iver to do something similar with directing a % of royalties towards gender inequality funds.

Interesting story that includes Little Richard, The Beatles, and Elvis.

Good
I never liked his music. Now I also dislike him as a human being.

I get the impression that Tweedy and Farrar were both giant douches. Farrar is good enough that I can put up with it.

Have always been on the fence about Wilco and now I know to definitely hate them.

Be careful, people in these parts dont take kindly to white people trying to help black people.
Just take a look at the comments in this thread.

I'm not sure what a gender inequality fund or reparations fund even does or how they operate, but it's his money.

helping people is perfectly fine.
Giving to loud beggars with their hands out demanding money under the guise of reparations for something them nor their immediate family ever experienced is a joke.
Romans used to feed Christians to the lions back in the day, should Christians have their hands out to Italy demanding money? It's an equally ludicrous proposition.

He's giving to I Grow Chicago, a nonprofit in Chicago that services the South Side neighborhood of Englewood. I dont think they asked him to..

All they heard was reparations and they were automatically triggered.

It's a "non profit" scam.
I'm glad he's dumb enough to infuse them with cash.
