Don’t worry, they’ll promote from within, and it just lets new trash in. They’ll claim it wasn’t their fault, and then they can repeat the cycle in a few months when the next thing gets filmed. Note, not when the next thing happens, just when the next thing is filmed. The next thing will HAPPEN long before someone…

I wish I could just resign after murdering someone at work.

In other word, never. It’s been 50 years since the Civil Right marches.

We see this in Portland, too. Where the pigs stand by as the ProudBoys and other RWNs use violence against the protestors. Why? Because the pigs are simpatico with fascists. 

Don’t those protestors know that only a comprehensive white paper with concrete goals is a prerequisite for action?  Without a plan, what hope is there for change?!

NYPD: If we won’t let them kill black people in their official capacity, they’ll find other ways to get it done.

People knew. Had to, anyone who has ever spent time outside with other human beings would pick up at the least that that accent is a fraud. Where’s your family at? oh they’re dead, no pictures in your house? ok, shitty relationship, not even a cousin you got along with?

She also damaged the rep of the Africana dep’t where she was employed, actively criticized and hampered the work and interdisciplinary research of other Black women - even going so far to call one a “slave-catcher” in her book reportedly, as told by a colleague - and won awards, grants, fellowships, all kinds of…

Seriously. It’s so gross. I peeped all kinds of stories about her weaponizing Black Feminist thought against actual Black - especially dark-skinned -women condescendingly that this whole thinkpiece and his indifference to the damage she caused while everyone from “Pro-Black” journals to Son of Baldwin were featuring…

I honestly need to be seeing Black women, especially phenotypical Afrolatinas, the ultimate victims of that rasclot’s charade speaking on this in lengthy thinkpieces, not Black men.

So, Elizabeth Warren’s situation is something I relate to. I’m a white guy from Texas who grew up in a small town. All of my life, I heard family stories of being “Indian”. I was told that my great great grandmother on my grandmother’s side was “full blood”. Growing up, I had no reason to believe otherwise. I just…

The loved ones of this woman need to come gather her.

One of the smaller consequences of her deception is that the standard of proof for blackness is about to be raised for anyone mixed, lightskinned or white passing. A conversation about colorism and proximity to whiteness is reopening, but unfortunately some of that negative attention is going to fall on ACTUAL black…

She could have easily stuck to the groups she’s already a part of (female, Jewish) and spoke about the injustices she’s experienced as part of those, or spoken on behalf of other communities as an ally. No need to pretend she’s someone she isn’t.

Krug is an author, professor, and a “historian of politics, ideas, and cultural practices in Africa and the African Diaspora.” She has been heralded as an activist for Black and Latinx voices who taught African history and culture at George Washington University since 2012.

This one is really baffling, especially when you view the video. What else about her life is a lie? What benefit did she get from her false ID? Were the grades she gave earned (if anyone flunked or got lower grades than they believe they deserved)? Did her actions in any way inhibit or prevent any Black person from…

I wonder how all the black people that missed out on jobs, funding, etc. feel about it though. That type of thing has both an economic, professional, and mental and emotional effect. She didn’t just steal culture , she stole opportunity that would have benefited actual black people on multiple levels. I hope she gets…

Here come all the “feminism divides the black community” ankh right dudes. (In other words to them the black community can only function when sexism is in place).

I wrote this comment on the great column Maiysha Kai wrote discussing “Intimate partner Violence”.
