Both male and female black actors need to stop doing slave movies and portraying 'the help' type characters. Why do they always win awards for these types of roles?

It's more like a clusterfuck of values. On an individual level, the black community ( and by this I mean up from slavery black folk- I don't know anything about 1st or second generation with roots elsewhere) IS quite matriarchal. A lot of households dominated by maternal figures, a lot of women getting education and…

I'm more excited to see where 2014 takes her than where it takes me.

I'm sorry, singing Beyonce with BEYONCE would make my night forever. I would never, ever, ever stop talking about that. Especially if it was Crazy in Love or Bootylicious or fuck, any Beyonce song like ever.

The fact that she is so qualified (which I didn't know until before you outlined, thanks for the info) and did not get the job before all the pressure just do more to show bad Micahels' and Thompson's comments earlier in the year were.

Delicious, garlic salt crusted, buttered yeast logs of Satan. Yes, please!

You can pry Olive Garden's breadsticks out of my cold, dead, bloated, chubby fingers.

Hmm. I think I want to be a famous actor.

Appropriation is something the powerful do to the powerless. If 90% of international movie blockbusters were based on African history, culture, theater and literature, then white people could insert themselves into cinema and not be appropriating. Wanna turn tables and see how it feels or nah?

He also drew him as brunette... do you feel similarly obligated to call Craig "blond Bond"?

Thank you. These "but Bond is white because Ian Fleming said so!" idiots need to be put in their place once and for all. James Bond isn't a freaking historical figure, he's a FICTIONAL CHARACTER. And not only that, he's a fictional character that is public domain at this point since he's been reinvented and repurposed…

I'm not sure what the attitude is for. I never implied that no one knows who she is. But lots of people do not. It's like that for every celebrity. Huge amounts of people don't even turn on the tv except for news.

wasn't that the point of the piece?

Right, they all want handwritten notes excluding them from comments about racism and oppression. But, but, but, you hurt my feelings when you lump me in with all of the racists. I've never done anything racist. I've never owned slaves. Now I'm going to drown you and your discussion in my tears b/c you didn't make…

Yes. Because obviously fashion fads like shoulder pads and feminine beauty standards ARE THE SAME FUCKING THING. Its not like feminine beauty standards and body politics are complex and related to racist historical legacies, class and the cultural climate. beauty standards change like hem lines every spring and fall.…

Your own experience proves the nastiness of "What White Women Used to Think".

"So MY point is that merely looking at my body, you don't actually know if I've ever ridiculed black women's bodies or if i'm now rushing to the gym to emulate them."

This is where you and I part ways. You're thinking and talking about yourself and white women like you.

I'm thinking and talking about the larger…

They liked big butts and big lips as a matter of morbid curiosity, but probably not out of envy. I'm sure they'd have no part of it. The standard of beauty is still light skin and straight hair, but certain attributes of POC have become desirable. As always, white people cherry-pick what they think is beautiful and…

Please, tell me all the ways race has nothing to do with the standards of feminine beauty.

Troll harder, asshole.

Remember when white people thought big butts were "ghetto' and "disgusting" because of its proximity to black and latino women?

Now a skinny white girl having a round, fake looking ass stirs up awe and admiration in people? Beyond annoying.
