This man needs to come to my school. I would not miss a single lecture, assignment, or test. I love talking about all the things that contribute to Beyonce's success (like light skinned privilege).

In the alternate universe in which I become famous, a lot of my old tweets are going to be AWKWARD. Especially for Lena Dunham, Lady Gaga, the producers of Game of Thrones, Zoe Saldana, Jessica Biel, and Jennifer Lawrence.
I am aware of both of those concepts. But to act like the mass export of US media doesn't affect how those populations think about black people is, in a word, naive. B/c it does and there are studies to back that shit up. So I am sad about western media dominance in other countries, but i take it fucking seriously…
Ok so I'm only going to go through this once. So everybody better listen up.
This article is irking me and I can't quite explain why. Her sexuality is nobodies business and she shouldn't be made to feel guilty for not waving any flag about it. You gotta understand that she is a plus sized black woman who has been acting in hollywood for decades now. She has been one of the lucky ones who has…
The version of royals as performed by Puddles the clown is far better than the original and also helps make it less about a privileged white girl wondering why oh why oh why hip hop refers to the attainment of wealth.
The statement I made about Jezebel being predominantly white still holds. The staff has had some wonderfully additions, but the comment still holds. The WEBSITE, Jezebel, is predominately focused on white women. It's not an accusatory statement, it's an overall statistic. It's content (Shit, even its comment base)…
By that logic, so is George Zimmerman.
Cue all the white people running in to defend Macklemore. Is there an overload? Probably, but you know what? I'm glad there is a huge backlash, shit like this should get called out. Maybe the Grammys would stop being such a joke if their BS was called out more often.
Say it from the stage (or say something to its effect) or just send a text message without Instagramming it. Or use Twitter and stop the faux-coyness. If it's an intimate message to Kendrick Lamar, let it be one. It makes the whole affair seem anything but genuine.
Macklemore is the Male Lena. The Malena.
this is the most transparent humble brag i have never seen.
She left because she couldn't take the defensive white women tears on every racism article. I remember reading an article written by her about how black women were critical of white men/black men relationships for a number of reason more complex than racism and it was flooded by white women calling Peterson a racist.…
Seriously, its like the two worst people you know taking digs at one another and you just sit there laughing. One's a terrible human being and the other is a website staffed by 90% terrible human beings. The only winners here are WoC who get to laugh at the racists and their stans.
Tracie's trying to tell you that she's got a black friend.
About 50% more people read coverage of Dunham alone on this site in one week than watched her show.
