Jann Wenner, who co-founded Rolling Stone magazine and also was a co-founder of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, has been removed from the hall’s board of directors after making comments that were seen as disparaging toward Black and female musicians
If you mean the song Like a Rolling Stone, that was written by Bob Dylan, who is white. Otherwise, I’m not sure what song you’re thinking of, but I am pretty sure that’s the song the magazine was named after.
Rock has its roots and foundation in Delta Blues. Which would be the environment that helped influence and shape later known Chicago bluesmen such as Muddy Waters. Without the contributions of the black artists from the Mississippi Delta you would not have any of the music we currently enjoy today.

Ok, fair enough. I didn’t think it would be named after a song that someone who predated rock by decades wrote.
