Actor/singer Christian Keyes, best known as a veteran of urban stage plays, let comedian and talk show host Steve Harvey have it after Harvey told a Flint, Michigan native who called in to “enjoy his dirty glass of brown water” on The Steve Harvey Morning show after the two bumped heads .
Keyes posted an open video to Steve Harvey regarding the comments.
A transcription of the video reads as follows:
“I gotta say; I’m kind of disappointed man that you find that joke worthy – making jokes about the water situation in Flint. [There are ] 9,000 cases of lead poisoning three and four year old kids who are yet to speak because the lead has left them disabled to a certain extent and they haven’t been able to develop properly.
We have supported you through a lot of stuff, man. And if you did a show in Flint, I guarantee people would come out by the thousands – spending money they don’t even have to come see and support you, and take their minds off of what they’ve been going through. And you are out there cracking jokes about the dirty polluted water – telling the Flint native to enjoy his dirty glass of brown water. You should be ashamed of yourself. You are setting a terrible example. I know accidents happen, so this is a perfect time to lift up that heavy [expletive] mustache of yours and apologize to the city of Flint. Have some class man.”
