Last month, hip-hop pioneer Afrika Bambaataa was removed as the head of the Zulu Nation after several men came forward with decades old allegations of child molestation.
This week, The Zulu Nation issued a formal apology to his alleged victims.
“We extend our deepest and most sincere apologies to the many people who have been hurt by the actions of Afrika Bambaataa and the subsequent poor response of our organization to allegations leveled against him,” the apology read.
“To the survivors of apparent sexual molestation by Bambaataa, both those who have come forward and others who have not, we are sorry for what you endured and extend our thanks to those who have spoken out for your bravery in bringing to light that which most of us were sadly unaware of, and others chose not to disclose.”
