Mariah Carey forms bond with civil rights leaders


When Mariah was in Chicago last year, rumors persisted that she met with Jesse Jackson to discuss the discrimination she believes she faces for being half African American (even though her father is from Brazil, not America). She was convinced that the failure of her past two albums, E=MC2 and Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, was due to fact she married an African American man and embraces African American music.
A couple weeks back, Mariah renewed her wedding vows to Nick Cannon with Rev. Al Sharpton. "I don't know about the Jesse Jackson rumors, but Mariah has certainly been talking with Al Sharpton a lot. Mariah feels like she is a target of White discrimination. Because of this, she plans to emphasize her African American roots on her next album," an inside source tells me.
Mariah Carey has faced tons of criticism over the past year. Besides her last album bombing, Mariah also was criticized for playing a concert for Muammar Gadaffi's son.
