Those who decry “white privilege” have a whole different level of privilege when they hang out with President Obama.
Al Sharpton was reportedly one of the 500 attendees of the “private” concert Prince performed at the White House Saturday.
Leaving the White House party w/POTUS and FLOTUS. Awesome to see Prince and Stevie Wonder on keyboards together. Unbelievable experience.

He posted the tweeted at 12:35am Sunday morning. Isn’t that what all good reverends do on the sabbath?
He posted this to Instagram:
White House spokesman Josh Earnest tells the AP the Obamas threw the party “on their own dime.”
There’s no word on whether Prince performed “Baltimore,” the song he penned in honor of the rioters and looters who burned portions of the city in May.
The White House declined to say whether the Obamas were in attendance but Sharpton seems to confirm that detail.
