I am scared as shit walking around this city now. White males were already crazy enough now ever time I see one. Now, I literally find ways of avoiding them. I had to speak to my boyfriend about this, and he understands my uptick of paranoia towards of white males. He often has to calm me down due to the madness the…

My (totally anecdotal) experience working with young people in a university setting is this: For the most part, they’re 100% convinced that racism is a thing (and a bad thing at that), but they’re just as convinced that systemic racism is not a thing. And therein lies the problem. They lack an understanding of how…

Yeah, I sort of agree. On the other hand, I think there is some value to make people aware of exactly how much racial vitriol still exists. Those who want to say “racism is dead because Obama” can read this as a wake up call.

[Y]oung white folks need to know that they haven’t been shooting in the gym with the rest of us. We may see them at the Formation World Tour and cross paths with them on the streets of Harlem, and they can probably quote Migos’ Culture faster than many, but that doesn’t blind me to the reality that statistically…

Christ, what an asshole. Thanks, Trump!

Because statistics evidence and empirical research mean something. They actually include facts. You’re opinion driven and moronic.

The savior of white women who fuck black men. He’s here to save you white women from thugs and successful black men - that’s all black folk are I guess- and he is will show you a better way. A white way just like the 1950's!

This is what I keep trying to tell people who think millennials will solve racism. I grew up in a small, rural Southern town of about 5,000 and 98% (not lying, this is the actual statistic) of the population was/is white. Most of the millennials I grew up with enthusiastically voted for the Cheetoh. Most of them…

“The white race is being eroded. ... No one cares about you. The Chinese don’t care about you, the blacks don’t care about you,” he said.

In other words, he lost his courage to easily find the “good” kills that happen to be plentiful in NYC (and would probably shove that baby sword up his ass) and is now making up shit to cover for the fact that he cowardly stabbed an elderly homeless name in the back.

I don’t think he is interested in reducing his sentence or anything. He’s an ideologue and thinks that his actions will convince white women to stop fucking men of color and inspire white people in general to embrace white supremacy. Like all terrorists, he’s disconnected from reality. In his world, white folks think…

The police have said they’re considering terrorism charges. I’m inclined to think they’ll do it. They’re just building their case for a grand jury.

According to the Daily News, Jackson does not know why he is facing hate crime charges, thinking that they don’t apply to him.

How is it not first degree murder from the start? Not a lawyer, but he went out looking for someone to kill.

Why not just give money? The argument against it is just ‘they’ll only blow that money on booze, tobacco and lottery tickets’ but whenever people are actually given money, that doesn’t seem to happen in reality. It’s just a convenient stereotype, that poor people are irresponsible and that’s why they’re poor.

People talk about the Internet of Things being the next big Industrial Revolution, but driverless vehicles seem likely to have much bigger impact on the economy and how it will shape the job market.

Very interesting and timely article, Maya. I don’t think people realize how beneficial the social safety net is because of the myth that beneficiaries are lazy. And we all know that that gets translated. Many people, especially people of color, don’t make enough of a living wage to cover the full cost of living. The…
