It's still fun that profitable movies about black people always have to be about racism in some capacity.

Yesterday Girls came on while I was on my laptop and had HBO on in the background, so I decided to hate watch...it is so mediocre. Why is it still garnering so much attention? I understand that hype+race/class issues=buzzworthy for the first season but what about now? And if I may add, Lena does not have nearly enough…

Rolls eyes so hard that they fall out of head.

Posted about this piece on SNS last night. I think since Bogado only stuck with the show for 6 episodes she didn't get the chance to see how the stereotypes break down over the course of the show. She notes that a black woman is called Crazy Eyes, for example, but didn't get to see the moments where Suzanne is shown…

I cannot believe you guys are covering this advertisement (sorry, I mean "story"). This young woman has a very public history of multiple past business ventures that had something shady going on, including a) a skincare line with products that did serious damage to some customers' skin after she LIED about the…

It's not "full-throated" advocacy to not ignore sexism entirely. And no, it's not counterbalanced — her personal success does not provide leverage for her blindness.

Same with racism. Only racists are "colorblind."

Ugh, "blind to gender". That's how sexism in industry is perpetuated — people who do not actively oppress, but do nothing to speak against the problems that they are ultimately surrounded by.

Yup. Remember, these are people who will scream that all life is sacred while at the same time championing a man who murdered a man in a church.

Rose is a true sociopath.

I saw a clueless white girl interviewed on The Daily Show about race the other day. She said she'd never been interviewed by a black person for a job before and didn't understand why black people didn't want to work in the fashion industry like she did.

I'll hug him...with my vagina.

I love his honesty about himself here.

Who exactly was the target audience for Lone Ranger? People who watched it back in the day? Children who like cowboy movies? Adults who like cultural appropriation? I'm quite shocked it did as well as it did.

Lindsay Lohan is apartment-hunting in SoHo, and plans to have her sober coach move in with her.

That's not what I got from it. In fact I think show does great job at showing how prison workers disassociate themselves from the prison population, because of race, class etc. Showing the contrast in treatment between Piper and other populations illustrated the racial bias that the correctional officers exhibit, like…

This sounds like a lot of ego stroking. LL needs to nest, take some acting lessons and try again. The fact that she's given so many accolades is such a head-scratcher. I am still baffled I saw her in the MM doc on HBO, along with Viola Davis and Uma Thurman, etc? Okay....homegirl is NOT a good actress, or even a…

Ugh, can't we all just make a pact to NOT watch and let her fameball into nothingness? Please? She's had enough chances and she needs some down time for those lips to deflate.

Well, welcome to being black. And honestly, compared to getting shot while packing iced tea and skittles, or having a cop sitting on your back while you are handcuffed, this is a cakewalk. It's sad that this has to feel like a "win" b/c it's shitty and yet does not even begin to take the big racism cake.
