And that is a problem! If the school administration is afraid of bullies as well, then who’s gonna stop them? - Exactly. Parents who are not afraid to stand up for their children. You don’t always have to slam the shits into a wall to scare them into behaving. You just have to let them know, and let their parents…

reading this made me more excited for my little girl to be born. expected date is Feb 15 but it’s already too much excitement waiting for her. thank you for writing this!

Oh fuck off with this shit. No one gives a fuck whether you believe him, as if he has something to gain from trying to impress Dudeguy McPunctuationsucks.

Would you be willing to go to jail to protect your kid? I would to protect mine.

I have no problem going to school and catching a charge for my granddaughter if she is being bullied and true school does nothing.

I have prepared myself to go full scorched earth if I find that my daughter is a target of, or participating in, bullying.

Yup! White people should never, ever be used as a metric for anything other than to determine how harmful something is for POC. They will forever and always put their own feelings and comfort over the lives of others. They don’t want equality, they want to maintain the status quo that has allowed their mediocrity to…

Nah, you can though. As I said, my mother did exactly that when I was in first grade and being relentlessly bullied by a kid, and god bless her for it; that fucker never laid a hand on me again. The kid’s mom was a lawyer too, my mother gave zero fucks—her children’s safety was paramount. Today, I am a lawyer, and if…

Pure, ‘both sides’ bullshit. It is not up to the oppressed to dismantle racism. It never has been, it never will be.

This is heartbreaking.

“Who knows, that little boy might end up with Kate and Toby.........”

You thought the racism would be a dealbreaker — honey, the racism is at the bottom of it.

That takes me back, Walgreens wasn’t very slick. I used to move really fast between aisles to see if / how many times I could get them to repeat it. “Code 45 in Aisle 6, 45 in 7, 45 in 9, 45 in 12...” Half the time I didn’t even know what aisle I was in without the PA announcement.

There’s a lot of anti-blackness in Asian and Hispanic/Latinx cultures. It’s seriously ugly.

They love the street cred of being in an “urban” area, they just would like to have that street cred without the hard work of having to actually to deal with any of the people who made that urban area what it actually was.

Don’t you just love the trolls who’ve been around for so little time they don’t realise they’ve sent their crappy racebaiting to like one of the 5 ungreyed White people on the site?

I can’t with these people. When 45 was elected, I resolved to demand everyone who brings up their black friend to call them and put them on the phone.

Every time I attempt to have the conversation with white folks they ask for, I try to explain that the worst parts of racism aren’t the KKK or the white supremacists that marched in Charlottesville. Those racist are the easy ones to hate.

I am pretty sure I’ve run into Jhon in the comments before.

Also, projection much? Sheesh, John. Sorry for the spelling error, I didn’t feel like fixing it.

Same thing I was thinking... All so called whites would be shocked...They have as much black DNA as I have. They would think another way. I know of so many who transitioned to be White and were mixed by Rape and the White Mans Greed.
