In an open letter she published on NNPA Newswire, no topic was off limits for Evin. She covered the numerous women claiming her father sexually assaulted them, the media’s portrayal of him, the public perception of her Dad, his infidelity, how the allegations have affected the young children in the Cosby fam’ and more. So without further ado, scroll down to check out the letter she titled, A Commentary By Evin Cosby:

On Growing Up With Her Dad & Being A Single Mom

I am the youngest of five. I remember our family trips and moving to NYC just so we could be closer to my father as he worked. From the time he worked in Las Vegas to the Cosby show in NYC, he always wanted us to be close, to be a part of his whole life, at home and on stage.

I felt loved and remembered loving the moments that my parents shared with us by exposing us to all types of people from all walks of life. We grew up appreciating my father’s success because we knew the prejudice and racism he endured getting to where he got and how hard he worked for our family.

Because I loved my childhood, I couldn’t wait to have a family of my own. I have two amazing children who love their grandfather. I already work hard as a single mother, with no full-time help, and with a career in fashion design, I am lucky that I have supportive friends that I call family because my children and I need that support.

On The “Public Persecution” Of Her Father

The public persecution of my dad, my kids’ grandfather, and the cruelty of the media and those who speak out branding my father a “rapist” without ever knowing the truth and who shame our family and our friends for defending my dad, makes all of this so much worse for my family and my children.

On How The Allegations Correlate w/Her Brother’s Murder & Several Cases Being Dismissed

When people are so quick to cast hate, and make accusations of horrific violence against my dad, they are callous in their carelessness about the harm they are causing to others. I thought when my brother Ennis was murdered, that was the worst nightmare of all time.

It’s so hurtful to this day. I try to block out the day he was killed, but that pain has only worsened in these last years. For some reason, my family’s pain has been a trigger for people to seize upon us harder.

On the same day that Ennis was murdered, a woman came out claiming that my father had a “love child.” She was arrested for extortion. She was not my father’s daughter. On the day I gave birth to my son, another women came out, but that case was dismissed too – the district attorney investigated her claims also and didn’t press charges.

On How The Allegations Against Her Dad Seem Fishy

Two years ago, and over 10 years later, several women came out. Like the woman from 2005, they claimed to have been raped and drugged. But, like the one from 2005, their stories didn’t match up. Instead of going through the criminal justice system, these stories never got investigated and just got repeated. They have been accepted as the truth. My dad tried to defend himself. His lawyers tried to defend him, but they all got sued.

On Her Father & Famous Friends Being Silenced From Publicly Speaking Out

People were constantly reaching out to me about why doesn’t your dad say something. I kept saying he’s trying, but the media is only interested in the stories of the women. Friends of ours tried to help, but the media wouldn’t print what they said or knew. Our friends that spoke up were pressured to shut up. No one wanted to print their supportive words.

We live in a scandalous country where the more sexualized and provocative the story, the more attention it gets. We get all sorts of mixed up messages in our society. We are told that we have fundamental rights to be innocent until proven guilty. But, if enough people think you are a bad person, you are branded a bad person and the media just reinforces that.

On Why Her Dad Deserves Fair Chance To Be Heard

My dad, like anyone in this country, deserves to be treated fairly under the law. My dad broke barriers and raised the conscious of America on important topics, especially for the advancement of women. On “The Cosby Show” he only depicted women as smart and accomplished. On “The Cosby Show” and on “A Different World,” he took on then taboo subjects like menstrual cycles and rape, and even did a show on AIDS before anyone else would bring it up.

I am his fourth daughter. He raised me to go to college, start my own business, and be my own woman. He is helping me raise my children and teach them family values. I know that my father loves me, loves my sisters and my mother. He loves and respects women. He is not abusive, violent or a rapist. Sure, like many celebrities tempted by opportunity, he had his affairs, but that was between him and my mother. They have worked through it and moved on, and I am glad they did for them and for our family.

The harsh and hurtful accusations of things that supposedly happened 40 or 50 years ago, before I was born, in another lifetime, and that have been carelessly repeated as truth without allowing my dad to defend himself and without requiring proof, has punished not just my dad but every one of us. They have punished the talented people who were still earning money and feeding their families from my dad’s shows and work.

I am pleased that finally we are seeing the whole picture and seeing cases and claims dismissed from court. I just hope that those who pre-judged my dad are now willing to admit that they were wrong.

Now here’s the thing: I need help envisioning what she said happened, so if anyone can help me out, please do so.

Here’s what was reported via Entertainment Tonight…

The post So Bill Cosby Did What?!! Has This Woman Gone WAY Too Far? appeared first on I Love Old School Music.

Phillips wrote in his blog post on yesterday, how he ran into an old friend, and she divulged that she was a victim of Cosby’s alleged drugging of women and then was sexually assaulted.

[su_quote cite=”josephcphillips.com” url=”http://josephcphillips.com/2015/07/of-course-bill-cosby-is-guilty/”]I was particularly shaken the afternoon I bumped into an old friend while shopping. The controversy was at its height. The story of Bill was all over the press. I hadn’t seen this woman for many years. Back in the day, I had asked her out on a few dates, but was relegated to the friend zone so fast it made my ears wiggle. We had kept in touch for a few years, but our lives had taken different paths.

Over the years, I had watched with a passive interest as her career grew, so I was excited to see her and catch up a bit. As we spoke, I recalled that Bill had been her mentor (play father, teacher…something. I couldn’t quite recall what it was).

The question popped into my head.

“Hey, do you mind if I ask you something?”

She looked at me and then asked, “Is it going to make me cry?”

I was a bit taken aback. “Well,” I stammered. “I hope it doesn’t make you cry.” She smiled.

“Go ahead and ask your question.”

“Back in the day,” I started. “I remember that you knew Bill – that he was like your mentor or something. Did he ever…”

Before I finished the sentence, she began to cry.

We spent the next two hours sitting on a bench talking. Through tears, she told me her story. She cursed him for violating both her trust and her body. She cursed herself for not being smarter, and for degrading herself in pursuit of success. I listened patiently.

As she began to run out of steam, she turned to me. “Do you believe me?”

“Yes.” I said. “I believe you.”

“Why?” she asked.

“Because I don’t believe that you are crazy and only a crazy person would sit with me all this time and share a fantasy.”

I am not sure if our conversation was cathartic for her. I know it was heart-breaking for me. [/su_quote]

Wow! What are your thoughts on this story family?

The post Cosby Show Actor Joseph C. Phillips: ‘Of Course Bill Cosby Is Guilty’ appeared first on I Love Old School Music.

Jill Scott is not longer supporting Bill Cosby as a previously sealed deposition was released yesterday. If you remember, back in November, Jill Scott was under attack for supporting Bill Cosby, as she constantly tweeted her support of Bill Cosby despite the numerous sexual-assault allegations against the him. In the coming days, weeks and months, we’re sure you’ll see more statements like this. Folks who supported Bill, or either were silent about these allegations, will come forward and express their own views. That’s ok, back in November, Jill seemed optimistic, and optimism is said to be the lack of information. So we think it’s important to continue to read, keep the magnifying glass handy, and develop your views and opinions based on the truth.

There are lots of sources of information out there, but in the end it’s the truth that matters. At I Love Old School Music, we seek the truth in the hopes that sharing information, will encourage thought, conversation, and welcome the lessons learned from these stories in our own lives.

On yesterday, Monday (July 6), I Love Old School Music reported that Cosby admitted under oath in 2005 that he gave women drugs with the intention of having sex with them. Now, Scott’s tweets have a new message. She wrote that she is “required” to believe all accusations against Cosby because his testimony proves them true.

Jill Scott originally supported Bill Cosby back in November. One Jill’s Twitter followers asked her if she would petition Temple University to sever all ties with Bill Cosby and here’s what Jill said:
