I just wanted to say that your understanding of that woman is something beautiful. To see her perspective, to even take on her fight, and then take that from her and still SEE her and understand her is some next level beauty. We all fight differently and this fight gets into the marrow of our souls. We get frustrated,…

Incorrigible ignorance is white praxis
Next he gonna say, the wood in a Knicks game is pine and for Boston it's maple. Dude please take a seat. There are plenty of sports that standardize playing conditions to maximize fairness. This is impressive. Stop hating
I completely agree with this. As a person with mental illness the causal ableism of this post is just straight up disgusting. Also there is literally no proof this is what happened and if it did the automatic condemnation of this woman with ZERO appreciation of 1. the abuse she faced, and 2. how this condemnation,…
This is beautifully written. Thank you, David
You do understand that you literally proved the first sentence true, right? That’s how it’s helpful. It helps black people understand white people better than they understand themselves. It helps us navigate a world with white people like you. You’re right, it’s not helpful to white people who think they are good but…

This all day, yo. As a cis het black man, it’s not my place to go all in. But as a bipolar black person, a person using mental illness as a shield, especially when they use it to protect their lack of sympathy for the mental and physical health of black people as a whole, is just gross.

Black people can’t be anti black is racist. All are callable of falling for the lessons of white supremacy. White people love to point out the black people who agree black people deserve to be targeted as proof of anti anti-blackness. Fucking idiots. IT’S A FUCKING LIFESTYLE, DUMBASS!
White people suck
You don’t understand your own damn species
That’s my point. As a Dominican black person, I’m always gonna call out those Dominican blacks who trifle about this issue. If I demand African Americans include us in the struggle of the diaspora, you are damn sure I will demand the same of my people
I’m from Harlem and Dominican and black. My relatives live in Washington Heights. They are also black. Not sure what you’re trying to say here besides this is about bullshit politics and the idea that Afro Latinos are not really black held by people who are African American, as well as people who are Afro Latino and…
No it doesn’t
“According to Tuscon.com, Rep. Bob Thorpe of Flagstaff, Ariz., who introduced the bill, said the 2010 law that targeted “ethnic studies” courses at some public schools, including those in the Tucson Unified School District, does not go far enough with its prohibition against teaching anything that promotes resentment…
White male supremacy.
A distinction without a difference.
I need more information before I make a judgement.
