The Smith's are freaks. It's none of my business, but usually there's someone being taken advantage of in these things. August's mental health seems to corroborate that theory.

I share these articles with my wife who then passes it on to her family. The consensus is that no one else likes The Root because of the ads.

I remember back when I was on Twitter Terry Crews was being heralded as a feminist hero for going after the man who groped him and standing up for #MeToo. I thought he was a good guy. What I didn't catch on too, was the fact that he only supported the Caucasian half of #MeToo. I never paid enough attention to realize,…

Per capita gun violence is lower in Illinois than most of the country.

I would read this, but the name Kanye West is twisting my stomach inside out. Excuse me, where's the nearest bin of Yeezy clothes? 🤮

I hope the video is still there.

I know someone 😔

I didn't know the name Sanders was so common.

This is why I don’t read the NYT. They need a boycott.

You missed a big one, Learn Some African American History. If white people could do just that much, so much of the empty arguments about race could end before they start.

The Catholic Church has increased efforts to challenge racism, but I don’t see it reaching another milestone while keeping those images. Given the Catholic Church’s greater openess to…

Plenty of atheists are in Trump’s base. Trump himself is an atheist. He only pretends for the camera. I’ve noticed the trend of white supremacists atheist who openly attack women, minorities, black lives matter, and their favorite, Muslims, for some years before Trump showed up. Some of these people have YouTube where…

When white people are unhappy with life, they take it out on minorities.

It’s going to take a lot of steroids and CGI to pull that off. Is he going to portray the wife beatings too?

They did this in Georgia too. Black people aren’t going to get to vote. It’s like Selma never happened. This has to be fixed!

My mom birthed me. I kicked her to the curb. No one has to endure narcissistic abuse. Life is too short. Leaving your parents behind is even in the Bible. Even Jesus left to go teach. If he came home to Mary in a Make Rome Great Again hat, the Bible would have a whole lot less Mary in it.

The Root did an article on Shaun King.

Cardi still needs to grow up, but at least she has better grasp on politics than most in her position.
