FAKE NEWS! Lamestream media.

Can I just say how much it soothes my tired, aching soul that The Root (with cameos by VSB!) is on this platform? As a black woman who waded through indignant “this was very poorly written” screed from “liberal” white Gawkerites whenever Kiese Laymon shared the work of a black essayist, I find it so rewarding that…

This is the best thing I’ve seen on Dr. King, today or ever. It again reinforces what a ridiculously intelligent man he was (no wonder white americans couldn’t handle him. fucking cowards).

There is an active cognitive dissonance, especially for us “progressive whites”. Even those of us who acknowledge that there are systemic problems have trouble acknowledging that we may be personally benefiting from or contributing to those problems. It’s how leaders in the tech industry can support BLM while…

You are #NotAllWhitePeople-ing, even if you don’t mean to be.

But when the idea is raised that I may be participating in or benefiting from racism, actively or passively, that’s difficult to process. It runs exactly counter to my sense of personal identity.

It’s nearly impossible to talk to the average white person about race because they subconsciously know we’re right about white privilege.
