Not disagreeing with what you’ve said here, but it also stands to reason that there is or should be a distinction between speaking proper English and speaking with Caucasian inflections. Many ESL speakers work to not only lose accents but to sound more “mainstream” - ie white American English - usually Midwestern... -…

Thank you for this - I needed the laugh! But honestly, a lot can be (has been) said about Chewie, Yoda, and Vader’s roles as the alien/unknowable, other - scifi placeholders for IRL othering of POCs.

It seems as if these services are really for singles and couples. Are there any that are worthwhile for small-medium sized families? For instance, we meal plan and prepare meals accordingly to accommodate our family of 5. It doesn’t seem as if these services would be economical for more than two people. Are there any…

Thanks I’ll check it out but won’t get my hopes up.

Saw the top part of your post and LOL’ed. Thanks! Wishful thinking on my part.

I haven’t played since like ‘97-’98. I wonder if any of my cards are worth anything?

Yes, we’d like to buy books please!

Yes, thank you for the clarification!

My wife booked us on Southwest for our holiday travel last year. There are four of us and we were split into two different zones.

Any recommendations for websites that focus on building capsule wardrobes? I typically stick with black, white and shades of gray. A few colorful/patterned shirts, ties and socks. But I am open to suggestions/improvements!

It’s #4 on my list: 1,5,6,3,7,4,2 - haven’t seen 8 yet so this could change...

Curious - is your reporting of the Morehouse situation being published long-form on The Root or elsewhere? I know in today’s world, short form with links is preferred, but I think a long-form treatment of the story would be a welcomed format for your readers. Thanks for your work!

I think that a lot of straight men have the idea that even if a woman states and affirms that she is a lesbian and that she’s not into guys - they dismiss it ands see it as a challenge. A lot of guys (an women) I know presume that a woman’s sexual preference is fluid and that men’s preferences are static - and…

My main concern when confronted with a scenario such as this is how do I possibly get to my wife and children if we are separated by work and school? How long does one wait before venturing out to find/rescue/reunite with loved ones?

liveblog it!

This is Jeronimo Yanez. So we don’t forget.

Knew Rose was a plant once I saw her “party clothes” - she wore the same red and black as the other guests. Solidified the idea that she’s been a part of the family tradition her whole life. And that the red/black color scheme iz very Nazi-ish.

Have the names of these so called peace officers been released?

The latter.

This only happens in predominantly Black schools. And even then, only if it fits into the standardized curriculum.
