Are you black? If not, you have a good shot of not facing what a black woman faces regularly.
Are you black? If not, you have a good shot of not facing what a black woman faces regularly.
Regressed from what? What measure -and whose measure of life are you using. Black people have always experience such situations, and just because some white people mention it now on social media, it didn’t just start getting ‘bad’.
Since the story is about a black woman, and this is something black people routinely experience, then someone asking about the story shouldn’t rationally be asking about U.S. society as a whole because that would be showing ignorance of the reality that U.S. society as a whole has NEVER treated black people equally,…
Yes, because in the good old days black people didn’t die outside of hospitals because they were denied care, or admittance at all. I mean, black people couldn’t have experience bad things like this and worse, and you not know about it that would be weird. So yes, everything was just peachy for black people in the…
So you think it isn’t about her being black because if she had money, she’d be well-treated, but it is about her being a woman, because rich white women don’t get treated seriously? That’s not how it works for black people.
Yes, that kind of callous attitude is exactly why she died. Someone decided that her complaints of pain couldn’t be real. And the more she refused to just shut up and suffer, the more they decided she was making it up, until she actually died. I’m sure when she died, she had someone kicking and poking her because to…
And black people, males and females, even children are often - studies on this - left in pain more than white people, females or males. Black men are more often denied sufficient pain medication, compared to white women.
This man’s life needs to be examined because he sounds a lot like a person who is speaking from his personal experience of how he views women and especially young girls as potential prey.
Yes, because clearly if a black woman quotes Maya Angelou, she must be doing it to copy a white woman quoting Maya Angelou. We know Lindsay Lohan was first to reference Maya Angelou’s words, right?
Real diversity doesn’t mean black people? Because whitened AAPI are diversity to you? You know what real diversity would be? To show AAPI people who are not as close to white as possible. How are you advocating for any standard of diversity by using the same standard that chooses the whiteness - most bleached -…
Oh lawdy lawdy Vogue magazine decided us black folk good enough to be on the cover of their magazine. We are so blessed to be seen as human!
Many racists are highly educated, but their education and personal characters, upbringing, are still laden with racism and they reject anything that does not.
They believe that racism/bigotry is acceptable if targeting black/muslim children.
This was not ‘discipline’ - this was racism/religious bigotry - this girl did nothing that required discipline; this racist/bigot teacher felt this child was an easy target for her hate, felt that this child couldn’t defend herself and wouldn’t tell anyone so they could defend her, and that the environment they were…
I make a point to save wherever I can - such as use of coupons, catching things on sale, combining discounts - to compensate for moments of expense indulgence, same as with healthy eating, household work, professional work, etc. Not in a restrictive or exhausting sense, but I think if you maintain generally good…
Specifically black women - if he had been targeting white women this case would have been all over the media and he’d have gotten far more charges upheld.
Are we all supposed to be pretending that Trump’s racism and bigotry don’t reflect a very large population of white Americans?
Some celebrities do humanitarian work because it makes them look good for the public - they aren’t actually learning from the experience so much as feeding their ego by playing a character. They give themselves a ‘pass’ for their otherwise detached from reality mentally. For people whose primary public persona is…
Very different to give money when you have it, than to give your skills, your talents, and small amounts of money when you have to balance your own struggles.
Angelina Jolie seems like a dull knife, who - because of her looks - has people praising every fully formed sentence she says - whether or not someone else wrote it for her and she remembered her lines - and think she is a charity goddess just because she goes to places where people are suffering and gets her picture…
