The Social-hood Watch monitors these hash-tagged streets for acts of civility and criminality alike. Just as the world turns, the tide of public opinion sways from minute to minute. We can praise your fave’s woke post today; yet, drag them for their ignorance tomorrow. Read this week’s report below for the good, the bad and the ugly in celebrity posts.
The Good: The Flint water crisis garners much needed awareness
A variety of celebrities announced pledges to assist the citizens of Flint, Michigan. As the water crisis gained more media coverage, a #FLINT hashtag spread across the net. Both Meek Mill and 50 Cent paused their beef long enough to lend a hand.
The Bad: Aunt Viv Comes for Mr. & Mrs. Smith

Actress Janet Hubert did not mince words when addressing Jada Pinkett-Smith’s boycott to the Academy Awards. Posting a video to her Facebook, the former Fresh Prince star accused Pinkett-Smith of being insincere, only speaking out because her husband was snubbed.
The Ugly: Trump/Palin 2016
I am greatly honored to receive Sarah Palin's endorsement tonight.

An unlikely bomb dropped in the political race when Sarah Palin announced her endorsement of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump. The former governor and vice presidential candidate made the announcement minutes before Trump’s rally in Iowa.
Is it possible for Meek & Curtis to run for president, because anything sounds better than a Palin-Trump ticket. Is Janet coming for the wrong duo? The Social-hood Watch signing off; may the odds ever be in our favor.
