DeMarcus Cousins of the NBA's Sacramento Kings, a noted historian under the tutelage of renowned scholar, John Calipari, has determined that the Kings' "Year of the Monkey" t-shirt initiative to celebrate the Chinese New Year (in an apparent attempt to reach out to Chinese-Americans and to Chinese markets) is offensive to black Americans, especially since the Chinese New Year ignorantly decided to coincide with the beginning of Black History Month this year.
