Cause and Vision

I know there is some drama going on right now. Too many different drama battles. Some drama that I don't have enough info and is out of my hands. But, I work with what I know.
As much as I hate to be looked at as either an entertainment or sex object, there are some models of entertainment that is hard for me to argue against. It is sad that sometimes things get so complicated when deciding what is really fair, but right now, I'm setting aside the argument of fairness when being used as entertainment.

The main purpose is the cause. The specific cause I have in mind is Sarah Silverman. I think more than anything, she is known as a comedian and against racism. I was never given the choice to have Silverman to be in fame or paid for her fame. That factor is up to the people who are truly responsible.
My dilemma is having a defined truth for myself. Judgement comes in so many ways.
The main purpose is the cause. And, I remind people that even though I may not get paid or the ultimate credit, I'm still not a slave or jester that will jump through hoops on anyone's command:

Because I do not jump through hoops, does not mean that I am racist. It means that I am nobody's bitch to jump at the snap of a finger, period.

In another debate concerning cause is my sister. I have noticed that she is getting and sharing credit with Silverman. My reaction is mostly grey and guessing. It is grey because I question if she may be forgetting the cause factor and instead competing and using a black sheep battle with me to say who is holier than thou when it comes to racism. In my own predictions and experience with my sister, that is my most probable assumption.

However, being blind to whether or not she may be trying to throw my name in the mud, I do not mind sharing the credit with her with Silverman.
I hate to feel like we are put in a competitive situation where a good cause is not something that should be used as a spotlight for competition. There can always be some kind of judgement, negotiating, reasoning, and debating concerning number of issues. It is the reason that there are usually boards and chairman of nonprofit and profit agencies.
But, again, that is where the communism and contradiction comes in. We are not talking about a literal workplace. We are talking about grey entertainment that has yet to be explained to me.

Anyway, despite the possibility of being stabbed in the back by my sister, I want her to have something she wants: credit for being right with an issue.
I hate the possibilities of her ignorance in not understanding that it is normal and ok for people agree with the same cause. There is usually an identity battle that people obsess with and do not know how to deal with or get over. There are also systematic codependency battles that can come about too.

I would figure out how to deal with it so my sister can share a title of cause. I want her to have this.
