A lot of commenters are really missing the point that the mothers of Tamir Rice, Trayvon Martin*, Eric Garner, Mike Brown, and on and on and on managed not to attack any reporters even when they began flocking to report on their children’s deaths. There is another factor besides grief here, and it’s called whiteness.…

I’m an adjunct at a midwestern university. many of my friends are adjunct or tenure track folks at universities across the USA. We are all in the Humanities and many of us regularly teach about race, gender, sex, and class. None of us have encountered any issues with students needing to be coddled and not wanting to…

Women in control of their shit are always going to be vilified. Young, old, it doesn’t seem to matter...men can use and abuse any number of women in rapid succession but seem to cry the loudest when the script is flipped.
