A coalition of local African-American civil rights leaders are calling on the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, as well as its president and CEO Leron Gubler to remove Bill Cosby‘s star from the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
“Bill Cosby, by his own admission, obtained drugs in order to use with young women he wanted to have sex with,” Project Islamic Hope CEO Najee Ali wrote, referring to damning 2005 deposition documents unveiled on Monday. “As far as I’m concerned, Cosby is a serial rapist. Rape is rape… and we should all understand the devastating and traumatic pain this does to a woman for the rest of her life.”
