A lot of those graduate students did attend HBCUs as undergrads. I personally think we need to be in all spaces.

Black joy is a precious thing! Have a good one!

The little girl in yellow has got big dreams. She wants fame and knows that fame costs. She did not come to rehearsal to make friend.

this is huge. Bey get my vote this time.

Wow that is really something special! What a beautiful moment between them.

Agh! Ok, never mind. headless russell is fine.

You managed to make it weirder- kudos!

To the troll who replied in all caps about an eye for an eye. (I am not replying to your trolly ass you can stay gray.)

I don’t know. Even if we accept the most charitable interpretation that it was a legitimate accident (no lethal intent, fired out of panic) there’s a pretty strong case that she shouldn’t be a police officer. Bad trigger discipline leading to severe consequences is the kind of thing that even within the logic and…

I wonder how much the body cams had to do with the police officer’s more proactive approach to getting their victim treatment. There really is something to be said for that extra level of accountability.

You gotta walk in there extra relaxed, like this is a horseshit call you’re responding to and you’re just gonna maybe shoo some crackhead out of the house, at most. You don’t walk in that house with a hand on your weapon.What you say is so damn obvious that it’s amazing.

There’s some powerful Whiteness in there for the perpetrator to deserve equal sympathy as the victim.

Oh, come on. Why can’t you understand how difficult it is to shoot a black person? First, you think your life is in danger because you encountered a black person, who was minding his business (which is not allow). Second, you have to deal with the ringing of the ears from shooting the gun.

If I pray anything about Stumler it’ll be that she never shoots another unarmed person.

I said “trained”

Seriously, what the fuck is that bullshit?

How sad that I was pleasantly surprised the cops actually called an ambulance and made some sort of attempt to help the victim they tried to kill. Unlike that NY cop who decided to call his union and let his murder victim bleed to death on the stairs.

Add “Hiding While Black” to the list. My man was standing completely still, but got shot within a second of being seen. 

There is no “accidental” squeezing of a trigger by trained LEOs. None.
