I think the point is, though, that white people don't have to get up in the morning and decide to oppress brown people. Because the world we live in today is built on a foundation that has ensured that white people can go about their day while brown people are oppressed simply by going about theirs in the same world.

Sorry, but do one. I do not give a sailing shit about your feelings, how tired it makes you or anything. It is not up to me, as a black woman, to give white people lessons on how to solve racism. Fuck. That. Shit.

Let me guess, you don't see race; you're post-racial.

Sheesh. Never mind with you. I tried.

"This is why WOC have huge problems with feminism and see it as "white women's problems." I could not give a fuck about Lego Friends, Goldie Blox or Disney Princesses because our girls aren't treated as girls. They aren't allowed a childhood. I also get damned sick of white women going on about the plight of global…

I don't think you truly understand this, and please don't think I am patronising you. It's exhausting dealing with the microagrressions of racism on a daily basis. I'm a woman and I don't experience much sexism on a personal level.

People of color cannot avoid white culture. It is literally impossible. People who are disenfranchised understand their position and how things work better than people on a higher rung on the privilege ladder, but they have no means of climbing upwards. It's more important for people like me to be able to look down…

Thanks...as another POC, people frequently forget that they usually get to live in a "white world" by default, and one there they are the dominant culture and are in power.

Nope, I never fully believed this. Down south, they just don't bother to hide it.

Dude, as a white person to another presumably white, shut up. What Havok is talking about isn't segregation, nor is it the same thing when disenfranchised groups wish to associate with one another outside of the white paradigm.

No one is separating anyone from anything. We need our own spaces for the sake of our mental health and well being. It's a choice to be surrounded by our own people. How is it that White people get to have their nearly all-White towns, cities, schools, etc. and when we ask for a small space, we're the problem?

Actually, bringing a white friend would make for a winning team if you DID want to shoplift b/c the black person could shop while the white person steals stuff b/c we all know who the salespeople are going to lose their shit following.

I got drunk on... some date? I don't know... and told my boyfriend that if he asked me to marry him, I would.

Sounds about right to me.

Are you my wife?

My boyfriend was nearly black out drunk on our first date. He underestimated the power of day drinking, and by the time I met him at 8pm, he was quite sloshed. It was the best date I had ever been on. He was funny, told awesome stories, and was just so genuine ("Do you want some ahi? I like sharing food. Sorry if…

This is totally true for me and my husband, we LOVE drinking together, finding new bars, making cocktails at home, we both own our own business as well as working full time so we work until 10pm and then meet up downstairs to talk and have a night cap (sometimes this gets out of hand) but its our strongest bonding time

State Senator. ;)

I care. ALOT.
