Yeah, the optics were stunning. And I swear I don’t mind. You want to dilute the line and erase any semblance of your grandparents from these babies, go right ahead. But then I need my culture to understand why Barbra would never and so many of us will always.

Thanks, homie.

No. I was never sleep so my ‘wokenesss’ is not a conversation piece. But because I have the time today, hell yes every move I make is in perspective of the advancement of my community and measured for its impact on our reclamation of what was stolen from us. Whom I choose to love, what I study, what I eat, what I…

Let’s go to school, then! Friend, I see only valid analysis here. I indeed peep the initial, ‘they’re privacy just hating’ sentiment and that’s particularly hurtful because so many times WOC are trying to *save* folks and we’re dismissed as Bri g hateful. Maxine Shaw being unprofessional didn’t help either. Get Out…

You are completely delusional. Why bother posting, just argue with yourself in the mirror. My first comment, you know, the one you replied to was my JUDGMENT on Peele not being the wokest as the OP claimed. I wasn’t ‘admitting’ I was judging him in the immediate previous comment, I have been shouting my judgment of…

I’m not claiming to be rational or even about this. I’m super Black and super biased and I don’t know why the financial argument isn’t A1 on everybody’s woke list. Marriage is kiss kiss now, but we all know supremacists will marry their own damn cousins and step children to keep their money in the culture. But we see…

I’m about done. There’s an icky, violence having to defend yourself against assholes who want so badly to have an argument about interracial relationships that they keep shoving words in your mouth you’re not saying. You see his latest? We should be happy Peele is Black because his Blackness automatically enhances our…

No. He is not enhancing the Black community simply by being born Black. None of us are. I am not implying anything. I wrote exactly what I wanted to say and have rearranged words, elaborated, brought in in more succinctly, smacked up flipped it and rubbed it down and you do not care. No matter what I say you keep…

I can’t argue with you about what you’ve told yourself I feel. You keep trying to make this about me not wanting him to marry White women or defending the concept of Black men choosing them. I am not going to read one more comment where you suggest an African American millionaire has to go out of his way to struggle…

I do not understand to need to project more than what I said. I am not a proponent of anti-miscegenation, I don’t have a stance on interracial relationships. Marry whoever you want, no problems here. Race is not a White construct, it has been weaponized by White people to ensure their supremacy.

If we agree he’s not the wokest brother, what is the point of you projecting my interpretation to be more harsh than it is? I didn’t say his kids weren’t really Black. I said they are whiter than him, and they are. That’s not up for debate. He had an opportunity to use civil marriage to distribute his wealth in the…

I am not looking down on him. I am simply not looking *up* to him as ‘the wokest brother on the planet.’

Whoa, wait. I hope you’re not personally offended. I don’t believe every Black man can have any Black woman he wants. He also shouldn’t have to “suffer”a Black woman if he prefers White women. Let’s not pretend every Black man of resources is with White women because there are no Black women ‘on his level’ or ‘in his…

Which point? The one-drop rule is a White construct, not a Black truth. I said his kids are *whiter*than he is. That’s true.

I meant to reply to you but accidentally replied to the article itself. Sorry.

I’m a member of All Those. Peele is doing amazing, sweetie. As had Poitier, Belfonte, Kitt, Baker, Gates, Douglass . . . we could go on. We have a tradition of ‘woke’ folks going home to White partners, and hey, whatever. But how can you go as far as Peele is the ‘wokest brother on the planet’? He gave us a great…

People in college are adults. You can spit, you can cuss, you can bring up problems you have with Martin Luther King jr., Bill Maher, Gandhi, sexism, homophobia, light sabers, caramel lattes- nothing negates that Dunham has been a feminist only in the sense that the protection of white supremacy is always at the…

This is beautiful. They aunt-level does seem to come ready to go through the ‘in memoriam’ portion of the day. Also need to tell y’all I just ran into Carl Thomas at the grocery store (Remember him? He could really sing.) We wished each other a happy thanksgiving, I told him I enjoyed his performance at Essence this…

You are on point. “Blind spots are result of lived experiences not malicious intent.”

You’re assuming a lot. You decided I’m in the middle class Black community or inner city community and that I let people slide for homophobic and misogynistic remarks. Ooh, am I a battle rapper, too? All that projection of subjects not in discussion to deflect from our focus on allyship.
