For the uninitiated, Nobu is a chain restaurant made famous by the Kardashians, athletes, and actresses who have all rolled up to its Malibu location. Sure, the food earned it critical acclaim on its own merit, but its entrance into the lexicon of modern wealth was cemented by the celebrities who treat it like a…

This right here.  Succinct and bang on.

The erasing history argument is so transparently disingenuous. These colonialist statues went up on land owned by other peoples, effectively erasing their histories at the time. Thinking history begins when white people show up is peak caucasity. 

She’s been in the news recently because she catered Raven-Symone’s surprise wedding!

Are you me?

Luv, you cannot reason with the unreasonable. PeriodT. Seriously. We need to save and protect our sanity first and foremost. The fight for our basic survival does not ebb nor flow with these reprobates. For me and mine, we’ve got bigger fish to fry than, than, well, these basement dwellers who are trying to deflect.

Ya, that’s a really odd way to pat themselves in the back. “White folks fought for the rights of black folks, we deserve recognition!” is a statement that ignores the fact that black folks got their rights suppressed by white folks. It’s like asking for a prize for solving a problem they created. That’s why civil…

my eyes bugged a little at that because it was so patronizing

“many of the writers cited in the letter’s own list would never have been published if not for the ecumenical, good-willed white editors and publishers who fought for the publication of black writers.”

That crowd shot is a beautiful sight to behold. It’s good to see those numbers for visibility and I hope there were tons of changed minds because of it. Today’s SC decision is cause for continuing the high they must have felt from event.

One of my favorite pictures is her mother walking hand in hand with her to school. Ruby is the child who joined a desegregated school, and her mother is the heroic and terrified adult who made sure it happened. The high-head, shoulders-back walk of her mother is fucking ICONIC.

What a beautiful & supportive rally. That cover picture is amazing. The recent spate of trans murders are being spoken about nationwide, and that's hugely important. 

This was great progress since 3 years before it took the US Army to escort 9 kids to school.

I know her brother Wayne. We worked together at Jazz Fest every year for like, seven years. Nicest guy. Very proud of his sister. 

If the comments she made didn’t represent the values of ABC and the opinions she expressed didn’t represent the values of ABC why in the fuck was this bitch still employed up until this past week? I mean shit she must represent something or someone in that fucking hell hole for her to allowed to hire talent and decide…

Do not get me started. DO NOT GET ME STARTED.

Something about that US Marshal taking little 6 year old Ruby’s hand really hit me. She’s so little you can’t help but worry about her falling down the stairs and yet adults are mobbing to harass her.

Every time I see that picture I think about how terrified her mother must have been, to let her go into a world where people hated her for one thing-her skin color. And yet she dressed her in her best dress and her new shoes and did her hair up-that is powerful. That is dignity.

“These views and actions do not represent ABC News’s values. We just hired her, supported her, and protected her from the numerous complaints.”

That’s so good.
