I grabbed a girl’s butt once.

Get Out is an 8.3/10. Lady Bird is an 8.9/10. Even if you fudge the RT numbers and flip them around to judge different metrics, it’s no competition.

Toy Story 2 had a higher fresh rating, Toy Story 3 had higher critic ratings.

I think it was more how Tom is “the black guy” while a white guy named Billy is “Billy with the glasses.”

It’s been a couple months. Maybe emptive?

I watched the video just now and it kind of makes me happy. A lot of black and brown people just doing things up. It’s like comfort food, I guess.

Coffeeshop has slogan saying they’re the gentrifiers.

The United States has 5 times as many people as the UK, so per capita they’re still spending over twice as much on the British royal family.

That would be a lovely thought, except the reality is that they would just institute Brazil-style 26-stages of colorism.

They could be confusing crack addiction with straight-up lead poisoning. One factor that scientists and sociologists say is the (possibly primary) reason black crime levels have dropped by more than half over the last 20 years (seriously, you’d think every newspaper would have a headline called “black crime down 60%,…

The real poetry is the blossom of truth revealed. Sometimes it’s beauty, sometimes it’s ugly. But a black voice just saying how it feels honestly is just that — poetry.
