Goddess.

That’s true. She’s been awesome as an artist and citizen since forever.

Please, PLEASE Google this woman. ‘Dancer and choreographer’ doesn’t do her justice. She is a living legend.

Yeah. I want to be optimistic, but a part of me thinks, time will pass, trump will be out of office and the following will happen.

Eh.

Between the LA Riots and Eric Garner there was Sean Bell, Amadou Diallo, Abner Louimer and probably hundreds of others I’ve forgotten or never even heard about. Some time will go by and the victims will go back to being black and the murderers will go back to being someone with a badge and the only difference will…

Yeah.....white people will literally have a nervous breakdown if you don’t validate their feelings in everything you say and do. This is why I’ve felt more like a real feminist since I’ve started calling out white women for their self-centered viewpoints and inability to see past their own pain.

For the first time in this country’s history, white people are occasionally made to watch their fucking mouths, keep their hands to themselves, wait their turn. It feels like an outrage and like something is being taken away from them, even though they still have much of the privilege they always have. They’re just…

Yeah, I get that. I just wish I had the luxury of waiting this long to pick a side.

I hope that shit has raisins instead of chocolate chips. Their asses don’t deserve the good cookies.

I grew up in a very black and brown, poor, and poorly funded city. I have a coworker who lives in the affluent city (let’s call it Rich White City) I was bussed into from elementary through high school. A few weeks ago, we started talking about school choice and I connected it to segregation and white flight. I also…

The next time someone wonders why The Root’s writers and commenters are just so gosh darn mean to white people on Jez’s SNS, read that David Duke tweet. There’s your fucking answer.

You are some piece of work.

This is super fucking dissapointing. Someone DIED today due to white supremacy and more were injured. And your concern is about a website being too mean for you?! If the people over there are angry, after seeing today, can’t you understand why? People want to KILL them. KILL THEM. If a little harshness comes out now…

As opposed to Jezebel where the language is always clean and respectable, you never call people names, (like bottom-feeder you do know that that’s calling someone a name don’t you?) and never ever do things that make WoC feel unwelcome because your intersectionality is always on point?
