Team Michael here. And I hope everyone is giving Eric Reid the credit he deserves as a Day One in this struggle.
Michael’s write up is beautiful, but this particular quote is Kap’s.
I’m just here to help install, “Show it to us on a table,” as the rhetorical force it deserves to be. Black women have such a knack for saying so much with so few words. You can imagine “bitch!” before or after the prompt. She told that lying heffa she was a lyin heffa, implied she didn’t make a pie, and disputed the…
I was indeed talking about Iverson. I love Ray Allen as a player, but I love Allen Iverson *in another way* ;)
Huh?
It’s Ray Allen, not Allen Iverson. But for what it’s worth, I’ll believe whatever Allen Iverson says about anything anyway, so I still agree with you.
Don’t you let her put that evil on my emeritus first call should Mr. ARay be mauled by a gorilla or leave me to be a roadie for Beyonce! This here is Jesus Shuttlesworth’s problem. AI has enough to worry about.
I hope you ask one of us to our face so we can give you the lesson you’re looking for.
Not I. I’m Black by every measure. Heart, skin, mind, civics. My comment is about White people having power over those who seek White social approval. I could not care less about their feelings about me. I’m free ;)
White property will always be more important than the humanity of Black people to these types. The person you replied to constantly has the feeling he/she is entitled to determine what Black people should feel, our true motives, and how ‘proportionate’ our responses are to white aggression.
Here you go with that nose, lol. But you’re right.
Their ability to constantly oppress, marginalize and Other people is particularly impressive when you consider their wands are soooo tiny.
I’m sitting with you. I’m on layers and audiences of Blackness.
I thought I’d replied to you earlier, sorry. My argument is about his wealth distribution via marriage, not charitable donations or bank fees. Those disposable levels are not comparable to the assets exchanged in a marriage. You don’t have to like it, but it’s true. He can help a lot, but he is not helping in the way…
I get what you’re saying. I think we agree more than we disagree. Peele is saying he’s NOT super woke 5000 and knows he has a different perspective because of his ancestry and lifestyle. Why is anyone trying to argue differently than that if that is his own position? The issue was the phrase, ‘wokest brother on the…
Both she and her first husband were mixed with White. Their daughter, Gail, married White director, Sidney Lumet. Their daughters, Amy and Jenny are both married to White men.
Ooh you big mad, huh? Haha. Anyhoo, since you certainly are taking this personally, let me try to clarify for you what I have typed about 2900 times now. I don’t care that Jordan Peele married a White woman. I don’t care in a box, I don’t care with a fox. I DO NOT CARE. You do not have to take offense to my imagined…
He’s not enhancing us with his bread. Anecdotally (with Peele as one example) Black wealth becomes White wealth pretty quickly as many biracial/mixed people choose to also marry White people. I gave the examples of the beneficiaries of Lena Horne and Diana Ross; those generations are predominantly White.
You can’t get it. It’s cool. Have a good day.
