Whaaaaaat!!!!!!! :/ Updating to reflect this.

Unless it was necessary

i am sorry, but i don't understand your 1st sentence

I think the problem is with regarding yourself as an ally in the first place. There are situations where the "ally" paradigm fits well, but I feel like it's not well-suited to the problem we see embodied in the deaths of Grant, Martin, Brown, Garner, Rice, and so on. This sort of language implies that white people are…

Considering that the two sisters must have looked alike, it must suck to know that her husband might have chosen to be with the other one just because her personality was better.

I'd guess the whole "we're being naughty/bad" thing. *shrug*

Yeah, that entire book made me so angry. Jessica does nothing but be a psychopath and Elizabeth LETS her! AND THEN THEY MAKE UP BECAUSE THEY'RE SISTER BUT JESSICA IS STILL A PSYCHOPATH. SHE WILL ALWAYS BE A PSYCHOPATH.

Hey, I work in the same arena - juvenile court, public defense. I also live in Atlanta so many, many of my neighbors, friends and clients are black. I have a somewhat clinical view of race in the job itself. I want to know if the state has arrested/investigated my clients for the wrong reasons (i.e. racial profiling),…

Your answer is exactly the problem I'm having. I asked an honest, sincere question. Your reaction was to insult me, while giving a thoughtful response.

The first and most important rule to being a good ally is to listen. Listen and pay attention to what POC are saying and understand…

Your essay makes me uncomfortable. I honestly don't know how to help or be an ally. I work with kids in the family court system, either through abuse/neglect or juvenile delinquency/incorrigability. I want to fight for these kids, the majority of whom are POC. How do we do that without becoming a "good white person"?…

Well, that's one way to tailgate

So... Can we name the baby South West? Or is Kanye gonna be mad if we do?

I wonder what they'll put down under "Place of Birth" on the certificate.

this is the best story

sometimes i forget if narwhals are real or fictional, and then i google to check and i'm just SO STOKED every time i re-find out they're real.

...Uh, I got better...

It's not clear whether that grave will be opened on the television show, but The BBC is likely to be very careful about depictions of witches, ghosts and ghouls after the outcry of their terrifying fictional program Ghostwatch.
