The only problem I have with quotas is having to hear white males whine about them.
Odd that the people and institutions endowed and benefitting from the capital gained from slavery and colonization are bothered by reminders of it.
I feel like everyone should give her a break. Her job is to explain racism to rich white kids all day. And I feel like if that was my profession, in one of the whitest towns ever. I would utter the words, Fuck these white kids for real, at least five times a day.
How do you think they make vanilla extract?
I am Black and in the spirit of the great race draft from the Chapelle Show , we would like to give up Kanye , Raven Symone and Pharelle and in exchange draft Adele, Sam Smith and Duffy.
If I told my dad any of this (who is Native), he’d laugh in my face. Then be disappointed.
They sound like Bill Cosby.
The Republican Party would like to express its appreciation to the New Blacks for their work on its behalf.
But the thing is, that’s not entirely true. If you’re under a certain age, you have to list your parents on your financial aid apps, your parents are notified if you’re caught drinking, etc. I’m all for teaching kids to be adults in college, but I don’t think you can expect them to be adults when trying to complain…
Honestly some of the most prejudiced people I’ve ever known were people who self identify as progressive. I can’t remember where I heard/read this but the only difference between a liberal and conservative is one will apologize for defecating in your living room without making any attempt to help clean it up while the…
When you spoil a child and tell them how amazing they are for their entire lives, they become raging victims when anyone questions their perfection. The same is true when you spoil an entire population. White men have been told, in word and deed, that they are the best relative to their race and gender for their…
Because a nation can never live up to the ideals of its founding myth until it comes to grips with the sins of its reality.
With FOX and the Washington Times bringing their tiny little hands
Which is how it works in most of the world, so I fail to see the problem. My parents just said, “This is what we’re eating. If you aren’t hungry now, that’s fine, we can save it for later.” (Which amounts to the same thing.) It resulted in no drama, no arguments and no food issues. I turned into a kid (and adult) who…
It's those parents who accommodate their kids every ridiculous requests who are raising the special snowflakes
Unpopular Opinion: it's not the worst thing in the world for a toddler to experience a bit of hunger and/or experience people not caving to her or his food whims. People—-including kids—-often get a lot less picky when they realize no one is going to run to the grocery store to get chicken nuggets shaped like…
It’s not “starving”. It’s “getting hungry enough to finally eat”, and I’m all in favor of it. Parents who coddle their children by allowing them to only eat chicken nuggets and Go-gurt are raising the future Worst People In The World.
“Get ready for comments like “kids should eat whatever is served to them or starve!””
Why the snark?
