Her own family even came out and said why did it take a white woman being killed for people to be so outraged.

Racism is not a black problem, it is a white problem that only they can eliminate. It’s unfortunate that a white man kneeling may be the only reason other white people begin to pay attention to the issues but that’s the world we live in.

I say this as a white person (and the spouse and mom to POC) to other whites if you are offended by this article. YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM!!!

This is not PBS. This is one station.

WNED is suing Burton, not PBS. This needs to be made very clear.

It seems to me that WNED’s ass is chafed mostly over the supposed Netflix deal, since they were supposed to be the only ones able to make new episodes for television. So the real question is, is Netflix “digital” or is it TV? Despite its successful foray and subsequent domination of the television world in recent…

Dear DC-Area U.S Park Police:

And now that these teens have had it forcibly, graphically demonstrated that even when they are enterprising, entrepreneurial, and hard-working, their work ethic won’t be respected, the only thing left is to shame them if they ever give up, say fuck it, and spend their time relaxing instead of working.

Well, Bernie did actually spend quite a bit of his life working for equal rights for women and minorities. It was my understanding that he was an independent mainly because he hates all the BS tied to working in a party and standing in line with party lines you disagree with.

You know he was an absentee father because he though “wake them up” was a thing that works on 18 year old boys.

I’d agree if not for the fact that one wrong move - including inattention - could put us in all-out war with North Korea, which leads almost inevitably to war with China. I don’t think the Korean peninsula can survive 4 years of us just not paying attention at all, but who really knows?

They are renovating a landmark building in downtown Oakland to be their new headquarters and I go back and forth between wanting them to make it succeed For Oakland’s Sake and wanting the Black Bloc to just smashy everything they own.

Oh PLEASE let there be a tech bubble burst. I would love nothing more than for those snide, vapid, useless motherfuckers in Silicon Valley to have to do actual fucking work for money.

Yeah so can Trump and all his minions shut the fuck up now with their “We’re just getting rid of those who commit homicide and sexual assault.” Nah, you’re coming into our neighborhoods and our places of work and taking whoever you fucking find. You’re taking mothers away from their children who were brought here when…

Exactly. Also why they won’t care about Flynn having given classified information to unauthorized people even though Hillary should be locked up for emails. It was never about that. It was about restoring the white patriarchy to its rightful place. (Not that it had gone anywhere...)

I know some think it’s a bit comical that Trump is (predictably) reneging his promises to his moron supporters that he’ll hire outsiders and “drain the swamp,” but you have to remember that anyone who voted for him never actually gave a shit about that. Hence why they also reelected the vast majority of incumbents.

Its funny that a girl with a "son" last name is silly to you, when it's so normal to me. I've never thought of it that way. My last name ends with son. Post slavery, freed slaves needed a last name for records, but often didn't have one. Often, they would do 1 of 4 things-

I wanted to say something longer or more emphatic. When the in-laws (or, God forbid, my parents) say something about how he won't "let" me do something, I feel the overwhelming need to show everyone that, if I can conceive, carry, and deliver a baby ... allowing him to participate in naming it is a courtesy I'm…

I recently changed my last name, legally. I had been married and took my husband's name. After the divorce, I didn't want to keep it, but I didn't want to return to my somewhat appalling maiden name that reminded me of my somewhat appalling relationship with my family. So I took on a new last name, one I chose…

Everyone should do what Latinos do, keep both the parents' last names. I essentially have four names (first one + middle + paternal last name + maiden last name) and it sounds so badass when you say the whole thing out loud.
