Lisa Bonet and Malcolm Jamal Warner were the only ones who didn’t say anything problematic. Some folks didn’t like what Malcolm said, but I understood his frustration with the show being pulled because of what it represented. But yeah, Rashad said some pretty disappointing things.

Yeah, I was watching a clip from the Cosby Show last week and found myself a bit conflicted about it. On the one hand, the persona of Heathcliff Huxtable is so far removed from the reality of Bill Cosby. On the other hand, I know how groundbreaking and important it was to portray a successful black family on TV.

See, I still enjoy The Cosby Show and A Different World. I will never not love them. For me, it goes deeper. ADW was responsible for a generation of black and brown kids striving to go to college (myself included). TCS showed that black folks did more than just live in the ghetto, hand to mouth. So, he did a lot for…

I’d add to this that it’s a pernicious habit to judge historical artists by the standards of today. “Klimt was a terrible womanizer!” -yes, he banged his models and never did marry, but his truest friend was a woman, and his portraits of women are among the most interesting ever painted.

They cling to their guns and religion and we end up with a circus peanut for President.

Get to this place? Get? Have you not paid attention to the last 200 years of American history? We’ve been there for a very long time!

Sad? How in any way does this situation, even if you believed the faux news, calls for a random vigilante citizen to start shooting a gun inside a closed place? Shouldn’t he have called the #bluelivesmatter police force to handle it? Or is it because DC’s police force is majority black? Real life is very different…

I absolutely detest that Alex Jones gained enough traction that I now know who he is. Anything he doesn’t want to believe is “fake”. NYMag had a heartbreaking piece today about a former Alex Jones listener whose son was killed in Newtown. And as a grieving parent has been trying to convince Jones and other hoax-ers…

So, those pizzagate fools are showing very innocent pictures of Obama and a child and are fine with pictures like that one of Trump and Ivanka? Nope, no double standards.

You know if he’s so worried about his double chin, he should go ahead and get plastic surgery. I hear Joan Rivers’ last doctors have some slots available.

So true. Finally, white people are getting their due - on tv & in politics.

He’s like Tyler Perry minus the Jesus.

It’s a former industrial building in a part of the city nobody gives two shits about. It’s almost certainly never been inspected, and is almost certainly not up to code for live/work and entertaining, as it was used. It’s just a forgotten old building.

Yup, how he looks has nothing to do with it. He is a bad person because of his actions.

As a member of the grammar alt-right I have to whine about this.

My partner is convinced that all his claims of rigged elections during the campaign were a ruse to get Hillary Clinton to agree to accept the results, because he knew that the election was being rigged in his own favor somehow.

It’s all bullshit. Those jobs will just disappear next year. It’s still 750 people unemployed after El Cheato said he’d save them all. I’ll bet the remaining jobs get shafted with a pay cut too.

Add that on top of the white guy who killed Jo McKnight has been released from custody without being charged. I was honestly not shocked when Trump won, Amerikkka has been showing for years that minorities are not apart of the country or equal.

So I had a friend who after five years of sobriety relapsed in part due to stress from the election. He is dong better but he terrified his close friends and family. Please if you or someone you are close to is struggling with addiction and the current events please reach out to him or her. We all need each other and…

Who cares about Trump, the cop that shot Walter Scott 8 times in the back and then tried to plant a taser, while on camera, is about to walk free because the almost entirely white jury is deadlocked.
