She lasted longer than I would have if someone I didn’t recognize shoved a mic in my face and started shouting about famous hapa actor Emma Stone and a movie about the jitterbugging white saviors of jazz. And I have zero kids.

Yes, being famous and having opinions on race means that you are open to any and all white people for explanatory purposes! You’re so right!

You are so clearly uninterested in having any kind of discussion. Like, you’re obviously just here to be angry about POC for having opinions and for not being nice enough to white people. But again, I’ve already conceded. You don’t need my opinion because you’ve figured out everything already! Please continue!

Many people of color engage in these discussions strategically hoping to change someone’s mind or offer some elucidation. I engage in these conversations all the time (right now being an example). I’m not offended for her. I’ve gone out of my way to say I’m not condemning anyone and that I’m just describing things as…

Right? That was pure trash what she said. Like what exactly was she trying to say? “I’m better because death hasn’t gotten me yet?” Because, girl, I still listen to all those people’s music. I don’t know when was the last time I felt the urge to put on any Madonna song, past or present.

Okay I get where you are coming from trying to give a different take but the anger they are feeling is about equality. It’s about their fall from dominance. This is about the playing field starting to even out just a tad for People of color. Remember when these communities were doing well and they would actively keep…

I’m so sorry you’re offended by being confronted with the reality that you’re not the white-her0-ally you think you are voting for HRC. Enjoy your smug internet banter while the rest of us continue to fight for actual equality.

During the civil rights era, one of the biggest gains of civil rights attorneys and the NAACP LDF was to win on the issue of disperate impact. The idea of disperate impact is that facially racially neutral policies could be and were a cover for bigotted laws and policies. It is tough to prove racist intent without…

Footage of Ivanka and Jared’s first date.

Did you sleep through all the Pearl Harbor and Hitler metaphors that people threw out there over the last 15 years? The reality of whether 9/11 is analogous to WWII is inconsequential when the rhetorical response to 9/11 mirrors that of WWII. Her dismissal of a black man’s right to demonstrate is condescending and…

More recently she lived through the Civil Rights movement and anti-Vietnam War movement, and should appreciate the power of disciplined, nonviolent protest. No excuses.

She deserves to die in prison.

I think you meant to respond to the original comment.

THIS. You can’t be famous and use racial epithets on TV but Jesse Watters has said truly awful things about black people and it wasn’t even news.

And I do the same on my side. Thank you for your kind words.

As an Asian person, I’ve seen that same ugly strain of anti-blackness among my fellow Asians. It disgusts me and I’ve done my best to call it out when I see it.

As a Black woman, it always weirds me out when people say things like this, as I experience, see, read, and hear about people being openly racist to people who look like me every day, and know firsthand how strong anti-Black racism is in many Asian communities. This idea that other POC and some white people have that…

Just because someone is uneducated doesn’t make them an asshole, dude.

The problem with that point is that it assumes that everything that is now forbidden courtesy of PC is worthy of the label of asshole.

The quote is heartbreaking, but really, watch the video. Michel’le knows her worth, she knows her value, and she’s mad as hell. When she says, “my part has no value,” she’s not talking about an internalized loss of self-wort, she’s talking VERY bluntly about the mindset of the men who abused her and are now producing…
