What confounds many pundits on the left and right is the idea that what may be good for black women or Latinx middle-income families would actually end up being good for white people, too. Identity politics splinters conversations around class only if you’re fundamentally uninterested in making people who are…

I would tackle a neighbor for doing this as well. Especially a repeat offender, as I’m sure this isn’t his first 5 a.m. mow-a-thon. You have to be a real monster to put your lawn ahead of the sleep of your neighbors. But we already know Rand is a monster.

My guess is this: They had a fight about something — anything — and both guys have plausible arguments that the other guy started it or touched him first. Paul gets beaten up badly and is embarrassed, but frames it as an attack and hopes it goes away. But when it turns out that his injuries are pretty severe and that…

America should just come full circle in its pursuit of art imitating life and elect Terry Crews for President in 2020.

He was already a role model. Now he’s showing another side of manhood and setting a great example for black boys and men who’ve been sexually abused. This man deserves all the applause.

#12 “I was riiight on the fence of caring about black people but since my feelings got hurt online, they’re on their own” guy

ONE RANDOM internet list and he’s all.... “I no longer care” guy. Ha ha ha ha.. THAT guy.

For starters, don’t come into a Black-oriented forum and complain that the articles don’t speak directly to you.

#11 “this list is not productive nor a good conversation starter” guy

#8.5: The “if you’re not talking directly to me and giving me specifically individualized instructions on not being a piece of shit, then you’re being counterproductive and I’m just going to keep being a racist (but I always was going to just keep being a racist anyway)“ guy.

A year later I am done with televised news.

Amen, amen, amen. This is going to seem trite, but all of the anger I’ve been bottling up inside me for years made a lot of sense after the election. I think I was gardening (I had a notoriously black thumb before this year) and listening to A Seat At The Table, and Mad came on. I cried for the first time since…

Yep. It’s hard for me to complain about the now when I know about the past. If Ida B. Wells can travel through the American South in the 1890s investigating lynching, I can play my small part in 2017. As a whole, we’re all more than capable of facing what’s in front of us.

I knew mine were but happily debated them at all family events. They all assured me Trump was a blowhard in the summer of 2016 t a family reunion. Now I know they all voted for him anyway, so there really is nothing they can do to redeem their credibility to me. And I like that they feel my disdain. I am lucky my…

I feel the same way when they talk about running a small business and being a #bossbabe. If you don’t have employees reporting to you, you are not a “boss”. They don’t have to do payroll or hire, train employees and stress over the fact an employee isn’t working out. They don’t invest in marketing other than their…

If it’s not a pyramid scheme, why not sell directly to consumers?

Sorry, but elections have consequences. For example, the GOP tax plan would tax the hell out of graduate students, to the point that it would destroy my career and the general institution of academic science. This plan would not have materialized if the GOP hadn’t won the election.

I literally have trans friends who became deeply, deeply worried about their own well-being after Trump’s rise to power. Please, realize that not everyone is privileged enough to simply put the current socio-political climate aside and “get on with life”.
