The Game Calls for More Attention to Black Wildfire Survivors in L.A.

Game The Game is speaking out about the lack of media coverage for Black survivors of the devastating wildfires that have ravaged Los Angeles, specifically in neighborhoods like Altadena. In a recent interview with The Shade Room, the L.A. native emphasized that communities in Altadena, a historically Black neighborhood, need more attention, as they face significant challenges in rebuilding their homes and lives.

“It’s gonna take a little bit longer to rebuild over there because Pacific Palisades, those homes were $20 and $30 million,” the rapper said. He pointed out that wealthier areas have the resources to recover quickly, while Black neighborhoods with fewer financial resources are left behind in the media spotlight. The Game urged outlets like The Shade Room to shift focus to these underserved communities, calling for a more equal distribution of help and coverage.

The rapper has already been proactive, offering to cover Airbnb costs for displaced families and supporting firefighters on the frontlines of the crisis. His comments have resonated with fans online, who are showing their appreciation for his advocacy and actions.
