Some comedian made a joke comparing airline security to casino security, paraphrasing: “The airport can’t find a gun in your luggage. The casino catches you doing math in your head.”

You’re not moving in with the authors, but reading a novel is a bigger investment of time and mental energy than picking something at random off Netflix. I’ve always been very curious about the political views of the novelists I read, because books don’t get written in a vacuum, and they don’t get read in one either.…
On top of that, while the ineligibility questions are the easier ones to make a story about, the math in the nomination data makes no sense. At best, a ton of errors were made, but far more likely is some form of tampering occurred.
The thing that does it for me is the same old entitled white assholes, drunk and refusing to do the most basic thing....thinking it’s within their right to attack a guy...a black guy...teaming up on him with their weak haymakers and shoving. Just reeks of entitlement and never having any consequences. It was supremely…
Maybe, but they’ll think harder next time and so may others who see the video.
I would bone up on Reconstruction if I were you...
Wow! Tubbyville really came down hard...Oh, wait, he hasn’t said anything about it? Kept his mouth shut for once?
If you want a toxic dose of white sickness, just peruse the comments of the racist, uncreative, ignorant sub-mediocre gray goobers. In 400 years, their playbook has not changed. The dumb shit they say is still dumb af, still laced with the soul crushing hatred that has them looking like curdled milk and canned hams.…
The Reconstruction era was the epitome of that energy! There has been and continues to be severe whitelash against any gains made by Black citizens. From public policy to burning Black areas to personal attacks and land theft, Black folk, like Miss Sophia, have always had to fight for survival.
The unfortunate catch is that these rednecks (which I feel comfortable calling them after seeing those sunburns) probably sincerely believe they are the bullied ones and that they were just standing up for themselves. 🙄
White and loved every second of it.
“there IS power in community and simply that Black folks have had enough.” Second that.
Great commentary; You nailed it! And once again Nikole Hannah-Jones is able to put things in a historical context. Love her!
This dumbfuck thinks he’s going to convince people who read this site that it’s a totally different thing than it is.
Why doesn’t the Root moderate its discussion sections and remove anti-black comments posted by overtly racist trolls?
These are probably some of the same clowns that were at the Trump rally that day and felt emboldened to show their asses at the dock. Well, losers, Daddy Trump didn’t magically appear out of thin air to save you from your comeuppance. Pour some alcohol on it. You’ll feel better.
i can’t get enough of the guy that swims over to join the fight
African Americans did have this same energy post-Civil War, that’s why white people instituted Jim Crow laws. Every time black people gained a measure of success, white people tore it down. The Tulse massacre wasn’t the only incident of it’s kind.
