It’s too bad you can’t make it down here to Alabama. After the quiet family dinner on Thursday, my cousins are hosting a community-wide Thanksgiving cookout this Saturday. there will be at least 10 grilles and smokers blazing all day long, and tables of food and drinks and children running all over the place and…

it should also amuse anyone who’s familiar with Mitochondrial Eve and anthropology that scientifically speaking, we all have at least a tiny bit of African lineage.

If you are an atheist, bow your head during grace.

Tangential: This is not a comment at you, but rather a mini rant on how Jamaican became Afro-Jamaican. Can black people not have Jamaica?? In freaking Africa, white people get to be called South African (most consistently) instead of Dutch-South African or Afrikaners to distinguish them by race. What are white…

I made these and told everybody my wife made them:

• DO eat the stuff no one else wants: Make a big plate of the third-tier macaroni, the store-bought pound cake, the bloody fried chicken and your cousin’s white girlfriend’s pumpkin pie (yes, pumpkin pie is trash). Walk around and let everyone see you eating it, especially the people who brought that bullshit to the…

Right? I would be terrified to try this in my family. I can imagine myself sneaking with my plate like Solid Snake and I get that little exclamation point over my head. You died.

True white person Thanksgiving story. I seriously thought white people were called crackers because of all the crackers we eat at Thanksgiving. Christmas too. There is always so many crackers. All kinds of fancy crackers that no one ever heard of before.

Fix two plates. Someone is going to steal one.

WHY is your kind so angry? 

actually, i prefer the mac&cheez/dressing/candied sweets hot mix, but i can get with the sub greens or add greens.

True, but Nike is Big Money. If I’m doing a sponsorship with them for au gratin, it better be a lifetime supply for me and 100 of my closest friends.

What does “Cherokee heritage” have to do with anything? And how is that somehow better than not being “regular” black or mixed with another (non-native American) heritage? Last time I checked, Native Americans were discriminated in this country also. How is someone acknowledging their Native American heritage somehow…

How are you getting away with fixing to go plates before the meal? Where are you hiding it so that no one takes it or gives you shit for doing it beforehand?

Sure. Remember when people had to be told Wentworth Miller was black?

Have these people never heard Mariah Carey’s speaking voice? Or watched her videos?

She did One sweet day with Boyz 2 Men.. shes black black. they are tripping

Anyone who gets mad that Mariah Carey took a picture with Colin does not have the intelligence to participate in a conversation... on any topic... at any time.

Wypipo love a racially ambiguous person until they are reminded that that person is Black. 

LOL they think they OWN people whose work they're fans of. No Boo. Mariah is bi/tri-racial/mixed, whatever else you want to call her, as an individual. AND her ex-husband/kids' father is black, her favorite producer is black, she tours with other black artists, and her kids, though mixed, will likely see themselves as…
