It’s not oppression. Just glitches in the Matrix. *eyeroll*

If I’ve ever seen a tampered evidence in my life, that’s it!

Yes, I am sure that you know more about film editing than an award-winning director.

I’m curious about what is in the unedited video, considering that the edited footage is disturbing enough.

Its called compression oppression

A new “version.” Poor choice of words, bro. Accurate, but poor.

Ah, yes. An ERROR made them edit the video so we can’t see the extent of the cop abusing this woman. I’m sure they will now release a better-edited version and call that one the “complete” version.

Me waiting for Jez’s response when I saw Andy Assclown had done this:

Amandla is a great role model not just for black girls, not just for girls in general, not just for teens in general, but for everyone. She is intelligent and wise beyond her years and I thank her parents for raising such a wonderful human being. The world needs more Amandlas.

As a person who loves language I’m annoyed she used the word “diss” for “this”. We have heard her speak. We know she doesn’t speak like that naturally so there is a linguistic fettishization going on as well. Also, Amandla Stenberg is so articulate and smart and everything that the Kardashian/Jenner family isn’t.…

I think corn rows on us reads as ratchet and thuggish and on white women it reads as “edgy” and High fashion. Beauty standards are different and that bleeds into sexuality and how each is treated.

I know this is off track, but everytime I think of the outrage at Amandla being cast as Rue, I get so irritated... DID NONE OF THE PEOPLE ACTUALLY READ THE DISCRIPTION OF RUE IN THE BOOK?!?

Amandla is a beast. I don’t know why people thought she was going to back down from her statements. She has time and time again proved she is the truth! She makes me smile and I am always blown away with the bars she drops

Just about half my age and twice as wise

FUCKING AMANDLA STENBERG FOR PRESIDENT OF EVERYTHING

And she’s only 16?!? She’s going to be so wonderfully terrifying someday.
