For all the whites deigning to comment here: do you realize how endemic your cruelty is? Take a moment to think about the fact that it comes so naturally to you to race to speak your limited minds so cavalierly on a subject that doesn’t affect you TO those it does?! Your instinct to refute the findings of those so…

And the church said Amen and AMEN!

FIRST OF ALL. Do NOT get me mad about RZA allowing a white man to spit on ANY Black woman cuz I lose my mind thinking this: Had I been there. I’d have cold-cocked Russell Crowe so hard he’d be speaking Italian! But as assuredly as I know that, I also know that RZA would be the first one grabbing and trying his…

Came back to say I just read about Malikah Shabazz having passed away. Can only imagine growing up under the shadow her father’s legacy...and how many whites Most Assuredly worked to make every part of her life difficult. I’m glad she’s free now. Rest in peace.

All the stars in the galaxy for this comment! Cuz I wholeheartedly agree and figured the exact same things! One can’t help but notice the flagbearers all left this year so even without Harriot’s outside success, I figured he was waiting out his contract or some such. The new writing crew has a decidedly more ‘I grew…

Chile, you and my one little cousin had crushes on Snoop <zoinks> but I only ever had fucboi dreams about Method Man. Saw him last night on SNL and felt a twinge. Love that he never seemed ‘triflin’ (plus 6'4 & fine!), been married and famously protected his wife’s medical privacy but...didn’t like that he threatened…

I couldn’t be surprised by the Rittenhouse verdict because all the precursors were there.

People who’ve had family members with mental illness (undiagnosed especially) recognize this behavior. It’s a cycle of bizarre public behavior, strange body modifications, squandering of money & resources and attracting and being abused by predators (usually sexually) before some extreme devastation. Then family (or…

Honey, your response is the kind of Considered response I love! And I hear you on guarding our psyche and spirit from the constant new assaults and the old ones being more aggressive; I scan headlines and don’t watch the news. I feel like Nero watching Rome burn except I’m screaming for folks towatch out and they’re…

Hey Girl, Hey! Hope you’ve been well! They finally remove the spam followers who hacked me so I could return.

Aw, that’s so nice of you to say! Sorry if I came across stridently, it was in no way directed AT you. It’s a pet peeve that’s gotten set in stone whenever anyone famous gets in trouble, sick or dies; I feel it my duty to ask the world to feel for the anonymous who could use just a few hundred good thoughts sent their…

I firmly believe there’s a place for everyone in society. As Nicholson said in A Few Good Men, this dude is someone you want In Certain Places (not the wall) so the rest of us can sleep at night. BUT, he’s a precision instrument to be used for specific purposes in certain circumstances. And both that dude and the…

Didn’t see the Salt-n-Pepa hard, shiny crimps in the asymetrical long/short bob?! You combed them out into the Whitney Houston pyramid after a few days (or if sleeping bent a crimp wrong).

He should have called Isaiah Washington (Grey’s Anatomy), Columbus Short (Scandal) or Jason Mitchell (The Chi) and asked them how many chances Black men even PERCEIVED as problematic get in Hollywood.

I think you’re right about wealth and success affording opportunity to be idioitic. But BlackManItis’ main symptom is believing that one’s minimal level of success in one area means any errant thought one has about ANYTHING must be genius, correct and broadcast to all.

THESE men wanna be called Kings?!

I understand him not wanting to always be associated with weed. I think he’s a somewhat conscientious practicing Christian. Wasn't he caught doing over 100 mph and telling the cop he was late to church?!

I said: All it would have taken is a few command officers to stop being white, do their jobs of maintaining peace by ordering free fire on anyone breaching the doors! One Ashli Babbit on the inside and another splattered on the front steps and one around back would have stopped everyone in their tracks and sent them…

Me to but I think he has a touch of alla dat BECAUSE he planned that costume! Consider that whenever you’ve seen someone wearing just a cape or double-weird makeup in the real world, you knew they were living in their own reality. He made himself the face of the Insurrection because he thought, like…

I have to agree with the women’s empowerment in the video for I’m Every Woman. Music often sparks nostalgia and I absolutely adore that video.
