A felony though? I understand being charged with something but a felony seems like a lot. He is not being charged with an assault charge, he is being charge for attempted robbery. I do not think he was trying to steal the camera but trying to break it, so should it be more related to destruction of property. (Not a…

Kanye is a smug, wealthy, black rapper perfect combination! I think the charges are outlandish as well but I bet there are people itching to charge him anything they can. I do not like him either but he does not deserve this.

Yes!! That is the other part, many Black men face the whole, "He is probably is rich/wealthy/upper middle class because he is an athlete or a rapper". Because Black men are not unable to accumulate wealth in other ways?? I totally understand your frustration. I went to private schools all my life and it wasn't until I…

Yes but did you not catch that some of his recent calls (past few months before Trayvon's death) were about black males? Also how do you explain calling the police on a 6-7 year old child? Also you did not answer my question, what was Trayvon Martin doing that was "suspicious"? That was in your original post. Like I…

This post is amazing on so many levels. Some people think that only poor blacks get profiled, when really all black people do. No matter how, "proper", "well-spoken", or"well-dressed" you are you will be profiled some point in time. I will never forget seeing my high school track coach being pulled over in New York…

I just listened to the recording he says it early on and he mentions that there have been break-ins. Also do you know Zimmerman has a record of calling the police on black males? Did you know he called the police on 7-9 year old black male?

Wow, did you not read the transcript? According to the transcript it says Zimmerman says, "He looks Black". Major Fail. That was in the beginning so he clearly knew Trayvon was black which is why he called the police. Race is based on appearance and when someone says someone, "looks" a certain way they tend to treat…

Trayvon can be guilty for what? His own murder? Why mention him?

It was 10 at night and it was raining, where did you read he was in someone's yard? Also Trayvon had ever right to be in the neighborhood.

Our understanding of "threats" and "danger" are so wrapped up in unfair racial stereotypes that we perceive innocent people as guilty and guilty people as innocent. Racial profiling didn’t keep Trayvon Martin safe. It didn’t keep the bombing victims safe. Using race as a justification for fear only leads to more…

I am just full of rage and anger. My mother was on her phone and told me, "Zimmerman was not found guilty" I felt like heart sank. It just scares me, I have an older black brother and a black father, both great people, never been in trouble with the law and super friendly, it kills me to think how people can reduce a…

Yes! My GYN is amazing, very open-minded. (he been around forever he delivered me as a baby and I am 21) he actually saw a lesbian couple (they were having a baby and had been denied by a few GYN before) a few decades ago when it was still considered super controversial. He is not judgmental, he also deals with…

I do not know of any psychologist that endorses that, it is not practiced or supported in mainstream psychology. To be fair to psychology, it is newer than medical science so if a doctor said that, they be off by thousands of years. However, doctors still do make horrible mistakes, (for example why would Michael…

Yeah I not a big fan of Amy some of her things make me laugh, other things make me feel uncomfortable or annoyed. I watch her show and I do not like the moments of her stand up. I love Wanda Sykes! She is so hilarious.

I am a black woman and I always wanted to try tanning, but I feel I would face similar treatment.

My problem with the word therapist is that it includes psychologist, therapist with a MA and sometimes psychiatrist. Psychologist get the most training when dealing with psychotherapy than the other two.

I wish I had it in me to say that, however I got my father's stubbornness. I do have to see him again this year so I will bite the bullet and hopefully have a smooth checkup. It just odd how some doctors are so arrogant, it is like they do not want to keep patients.

That is a good point. My dad was very hands on, he actually loves babies more than my mother. My father also does a lot of housework. Both my parents work and they both spilt the housework. I grew up like that so it is a norm to me. I do find a hard time relating to people who grew up where the mother did all the…

What are you talking about? Please explain with evidence not your personal opinion. All the psychologist I know do not use some outdated practices.

One of my godmothers is a nurse and she talks about how the doctors (she deals with) complain about their patients. They do not like non-english speaking people, "fat" people, poor people, certain racial groups, LGBT community and other groups. They say some really nasty things and are sometimes really judgmental.…
