There was a whiff of depth - she liked/wanted to see the movie not necessarily because it was a cool action movie with a badass character, she wanted to see the movie because the VHS cover showed a black character that looked like her and she was living in a place where the people who looked like her were few and far…

Could, very easily see a white supremacist Manhattan-type going “actually... they ALL suck” and go full on ‘wipe out a shit ton of people’ in a Skynet way.

Did like the FDR to Eleanor comparison here: FDR was willing to capitulate to the Dixiecrats on the New Deal not applying as well to black and brown folk, where Eleanor in a soft power move thwarted the DAR to present a glorious black performer and worked her butt off in the UN. Both strung up by the times, but one -…

Really need a ‘In These Streets like a MWM’ shirt.

Is there a good way to get on the ground floor? Definitely do not have 3+ years, but would like to try to branch out...

Paternity Leave - man has a life

Well...if they’re already bleaching them...

There’s a whole slew of articles and think pieces out there that discuss colorism, blackness, and the positive/negative views of black women. If going off of attitude/demeanor frankly he’s knocked a slew of women without getting to know any of them, calling that theory into question. That knock on those women can…

Crickets from the Thin Blue Line types. Sad time for this county.

Irresponsible were it any deeper than “maybe not tout this with young women who don’t have squads and contract riders that’d care about them medically” but I don’t think she was talking down to her or anyone - the shit is dangerous and the danger is epic for women who aren’t fitting that ideal no matter how hard they…

Strange... had no idea their school would be so free of racial disparity that shouting out BLM would be an issue... I mean, the school to prison pipeline does begin with the school...

He wrote, “So I should settle for a bulldog and act like I’m happy with my life and preach ‘keep it in your race’ to the world as if Dr. King didn’t fight/die for equality, acceptance, all cultures loving one another, and no hate? “No thanks,” continued the 30-year-old basketball player. “That maybe your life but…

...yet still vote for Harvard and Yale grads.

Was on a good track. But guess who got in office.

He probably was their precious baby...

In his mind he ‘respects’ us but thinks we’re too stupid to live without men like him. Fuck out of here.

Right in the feels, this one. Really sold how much lifetime anxiety can be nourished through positive reinforcement. Imagine Chidi had his parents sat him down and told him that maybe, just maybe, the success of their marriage was on them doing the work every day inspired by him instead of the logic of his passionate…

Also: was talking about the wider party - the ticket balancing act for VP pick from both parties is a thing. They see value in balancing out any perceived biases that come from regionality by going outside the region for the VP. For the snark on Gore and Kerry they were also following the formula (Tennessee Gore with…

Really? BIDEN is the reason Obama set the popular vote record in 2008?

He was picked because people thought Obama was too radical (never mind that the only thing radical about him was his skin) and they love to balance a ticket. He’s polling high because the average black voter is cynical, especially after bitter white people either kept their asses home or voted in any way that…
