White people think it's their job to police Black people. Minding their goddamn business never crosses their minds. 

Or prefers animals over people

The Root did it! #Trending

Or just be totally fine putting your kid in gear of whatever colour....

Stay away from cops is a great rule in life. They are suspicious, usually not bright, often substance abusers and potentially violent. The fact that they can act with impunity makes them all the more terrifying.

Admittedly, an alternate title considered for this article.

True Story

White girls cry when you tell them they are white. Do you really think they are out here going to Spellman? lol.

Fuck him. This is not a regret, it’s a “leave me alone”. Fucking coward.

Interesting, because when white people act the fool it takes a hell of a long time to get prosecutors to decide whether or not something qualifies as a hate crime but when it’s reversed it’s really fucking quick.

“R. Kelly was never loved as much as him but I guess the difference is that Cosby assaulted and raped white women. The ways in which this world cares so little for Black women still occasionally shocks me.”

Yeah, he’s in the same category for me as Bill Murray - the “Celebs That People Love But Are Actual Dickweeds In Real Life And I Can’t Understand Why Folks Like Them” category. Or, to make things easier, CTPLBAADIRLAICUWFLT.

Real talk, Neil is a fucking asshole. I know folks who went to elementary school with him and they said even then before Doogie Howser he was a fucking spoiled brat. Nice to know he’s consistent.

And she moved back because her kids in Cali couldn’t stand her and she thought she could emotionally blackmail the old set of kids into dealing with her. They tried to reconcile,…

It’s so easy to “live free” when you have no pressure. Pressure is not knowing where you are laying your head at night or if you are going to have a next meal. I don’t see the Smith kids doing community service or activism like say...Yara Shahidi (love her.) To listen to her speak and articulate the future, identify…

If the issue was Jaden was sick of the fame train surrounding his parents, then I can understand that. He wants to go out on his own and build his own life? Cool, cool. But, I wonder if they told him he would have to support himself financially like every other Joe/Jane out here? Because that’s the only path to true…

She needs to sue Target, but I wish she could pursue criminal charges against these thugs. They weren’t trying to prevent any theft. This was sexual assault.

I know what I am about to write may seem strange but it is in response to Jada and Gabrielle talking about codependency. For years I went to Coda (Co-Dependents Anonymous) trying to suss my issues. It wasn’t until I allowed myself to admit how much anguish, grief and palatable fear I have lived with most my life that…
