[QUOTE="HotNewHipHop, post: 54034, member: 83"] The Sesame Place drama is heating up as parents have threatened lawsuits. Recently, the internet has been taken over by video footage showing Seasame Place parade characters allegedly [URL='https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/kelly-rowland-reacts-to-video-of-little-girls-being-ignored-at-sesame-palace-news.155168.html']abusing or ignoring Black children[/URL], and it all was launched after one family shared their experience.
