Don’t be sad. Get angry. Why have the offending parents not been named?

If the conservatives had their way, Indianapolis would be the capital of the U.S., and also the largest city left standing. Indy disproves the idea that cities always lean left. Sure, there are progressive pockets in Indianapolis, but it’s one of the most conservative large cities in the nation.
Ahahaha! They already twirled on those stupid fucks at State and they know it.
Lol yes this.
I don’t share you pessimism that there will always bee mistrust. I think we need to apply the diversity we expect everyone else to our own bretheren. That means not trying to erase differences. We are not the same. It’s celebrating the differences and respecting them.
just addressing the subtext of the actor’s response: samuel jackson isn’t questioning the actor’s “blackness” but rather addressing the fact that his ethnicity is not african-american, which has its own context as depicted in the movie. i’m black but my ethnicity is african-american; i may, as a black person, share…
Sometimes anger makes you completely forget what you’re aiming at.
As an African American, I completely agree with Samuel Jackson and completely tired of the societal movement to remove African American actors and people from their own stories and history! Daniel Kaluuya and many other of our international brothers and sisters need to understand African American has fought long and…
My take away had nothing to do with his blackness and more to do with Hollywood hiring foreigners to play Americans. I watch enough TV and Movies to get where he was coming from especially if they are being chosen because they work for less.
Sam never questioned his Blackness. Sam simply stated that it would’ve been interesting to see a Black American play the part who grew up with American racism which is not the same as British racism.
Colonial powers love other people’s blacks. In the same way that American black folks in Europe get to be exciting novelties while African and Caribbean immigrants are treated like garbage in Europe, British black folks sometimes enjoy an elevated status in U.S. White America does what it does. In both cases white…
Why do dudes always do this? THAT WASN’T THE DAMN ISSUE.
I hope to god that quote isn’t a direct response to what Samuel L. Jackson said, that he resents having to prove he’s black to Samuel L. Jackson. Because if it is, it’s an utterly disingenuous interpretation of what Sam said, and that would be really unfortunate.
Cool. These make my Black self feel absolutely 0% safer when a patrol cruises through my neighborhood, though.
I mean, was he only caught because the child became pregnant? Because, fuck.
That poor young girl and her baby. I could not imagine... Predators always, always zero in on our most vulnerable children. It just makes me sick. I know so many kids who could’ve been this girl.
Still on the lookout for any of these “good cops” I keep hearing so much about....
Trump doesn’t want to see you. He doesn’t want your job. He doesn’t want you calling him. He broke up with America and it’s time that you let it go. He’s moving on with his life and your starting to look real stalker-ish with the amount of times you mention his name in interviews as if he’s still pinning away about…
Agreed. It’s institutional violence.
Why does Sage Steele identify herself as African American? Her Wikipedia bio suggests otherwise, and not even close.
African Americans have enough tap dancers to deal with,. there’s no need to recruit other reprobates (Sage Steele, Stacey Dash, etc) into the fold.
