There are some big marches happening on the 26th. If there isn’t one happening near you, I bet you could reach out to your local organizing communities and get it going.

Don’t make deals with the devil, you know? And don’t convince yourself you can change him.

I feel equal parts “hurry up!” and “do it right!”

I am all for ceasing to glorify Washington and Jefferson and all the racist, sexist, homophobic bullshittery that built the USA. We can teach the complex history of the “founding fathers” in context and glorify those who actually fought for human rights in the public sphere. There are many heroes who helped shape this…

If they do it will be to call it Fake News. You can’t trust the FBI—they’re out for Trump!

Screw em. You know your life.

For me it was the constant insistence that women were lesser and also watching a gay atheist serve people better than any Christian I knew.

They have been the majority for most of US history.

You should read The Root interview with that guy and then see what you think.

Came here for this.

Shit gets extra complicated when you’re mixed and the white side of your family is out and out racist. Trying to love a white father who by his hatred of all categories I occupy clearly doesn’t actually love me has become a bit of a nightmare, and I honestly don’t know what to do anymore.

Nope. His late stilted speech is nothing. Everyone knows this is a “the establishment made me do it, I don’t really think this” situation, including white supremacists whose friend this man is.

Nah, they’ll still blame Obama. Just like they blame Bill Clinton—and only Bill Clinton—for the Great Recession.

But if that same black child is shot by police, that’s okay.

“Dude, the conversation has been going on forever.”

Yep. This is their rage quit. They will be squelched again.

“Hispanic” is also a governmental ethnicity marker regardless of language use. Like my family is “Hispanic” for census purposes but we don’t speak Spanish. There is no “Latino” or, our preference, “Chicano” option on most official forms.

Also, you know, there are a sizeable number of “Hispanics” that don’t speak Spanish at all, so...

Noooo. Really? Really?

And as if actual death and career death (which, not really) are at all the same thing.
