It’s a satiric send-up of the concerns of POC, akin to this little number making the rounds:

Pretty much. So much flipping of the bird in so many necessary cases...

I saw that. Deep ass feelings. That’s their fictional daddy. Daddy’s not perfect, folks.

Even good shepherds do what they do in order to exploit the sheep.

So...does this make me paranoid to always give the finger in whatever direction that I think the Starbucks hidden camera or hotel shower hidden camera might be at every given opportunity?

You said it so that I didn’t have to. Thanks.

Well, I have black students that read slave narratives and immediately presume that they’d be that one radical to start a mutiny on the trans-atlantic trip or raise a slave rebellion. People generally tend to do what it takes to simply survive.

Let’s not even get INTO the respectability politics of Calpurnia when she took Scout to church...

I guess the quality will be even shittier than it has become at J.Crew. Might as well just shop at Old Navy and call it a day.

I teach Mockingbird. I am black and southern. I never thought an Atticus Finch would have had me over for dinner. Yet, I’ve had white students identify with this character and want to believe so badly that they too would be the heroic, bucking the system, society-be-damned progressive during that era.

“That’s the reason this buff Negroid Amazon keeps dominating this classic sport, white people. Don’t worry. Normal cute white athletes would be killing it out there if they decided to become the double-muscled clydesdale that this black chick is, but we have smart trainers who made sure they stay small and fuckable.…

Yass!

It’s Atlanta. He undoubtedly does.

“I’ve seen the absence of money and what it does. I realize that wasting it just to impress people isn’t really the way to go.”

Good point! Wonder if she’s even aware of it...I need to see her handbag to know for sure.

I’m always like, “You’re rich, girl. You have too much money to look this ratchet. Just go to the shop and get some #27 tracks put in right.”

Nah, ebonics was ONE black intellectual’s attempt to put AAVE in laymen’s terms. It’s not what linguists use. We’ve been getting folks to use AAVE. Most folks say “Black English” (but then, there are black folks who don’t have that dialect that get offended) or “African American Vernacular”. Whatev. As for your…

Her weave looks so good. Britney, take notes.
