TMZ reports that Calvin Cooksey, father of celebrated R&B artist Frank Ocean, is suing his son for defamation. Cooksey’s claim hinges on a Tumblr post Ocean wrote shortly after the Orlando nightclub shootings, in which he reflected on his early exposures to homophobia and hatred at his father’s hands. “I was six years old when I heard my dad call our transgender waitress a faggot as he dragged me out a neighborhood diner saying we wouldn’t be served because she was dirty,” Ocean wrote. “That was the last afternoon I saw my father and the first time I heard that word, I think, although it wouldn’t shock me if it wasn’t.”
