But... it wasn’t slander.

I was cool with the article, but then hit the comments and lost it a little.

First time I went, I VERY intentionally started on the top floor. No lie, for some reason, Parliament’s Mothership brought tears to my eyes. I didn’t do the bottom floors until a later trip when I had LOTS of time to be able to go through things slowly. Still haven’t done the whole museum, just the top two and…

This is the best line from one of the most underappreciated movies of our time.

That’s literally how America paid to rebuild the Southern economy, fight the Contras, etc.

and nebraskans outside of omaha.

I have not finished the article yet, and I will, but I felt that these sentences here? these sentences HERE, Michael? these sentences right HERE, Michael? These were the best thing that have happened so far to-day.

That was due to contractual obligations. Once he left The Saturday Evening Post for Look, he did that series of paintings about Black America. The Post wasn’t willing to publish anything remotely ‘controversial.’

That one and whoot/whoomp there it is are the only ones on this list i have any memory of.

It is reasonable to expect people to fight tooth and nail against going down like that.

It was exactly about the brotherhood of man, but definitely not about puppies and rainbows. I get that it managed to appeal to the consciences of people watching TV News in their homes for the first time, but I am more concerned with the (lack of) conscience among the people threatening the safety of my children…

Racism is a social health issue. It is tied to everything from perinatal and neonatal disparities to geriatric care disparities. It drags on public education expenditures. It targets and destroys economic growth. Racism is the conquering worm dug into the root of our society. Either our society falls and we all…

Even the least active recognize it as a remarkable piece of literature, but it is often put into the American canon as a method of subversion. If you just read it in class, which, unfortunately, is the extent of work most teachers in high schools do with a lot of the American and ‘World Literature’ canons, it either…

I hear you. I really do, but its a toss up between Goodie MOB’s Still Standing and Soul Food for me. Also still in heavy rotation are PE’s Nation of Millions and Fear of a Black Planet.

THIS IS THE MLK THAT NEVER EVER GETS QUOTED, THE ONE LOCKED IN JAIL, SMUGGLING TRUTH OUT ONE SHEET AT A TIME.

Je n’ai pas fait le argument; je pense que les imbeciles ne sont que des imbeciles pretentieux. J’essaie de comprendre comment la stupidite a commence.

But, and I say this as a person who teaches English as both a first and second language, the general rule for pronouncing a two syllable noun is to always put the emphasis on the first syllable. You could make the argument, I suppose, that folks were so unfamiliar with the food that they consider it foreign? and…

“I don’t even know, like they didn’t think black people were getting shot by the police until Obama took office?”

Some folks in the education field talk about missionaries, mercenaries and soldiers. Never leave the missionaries alone with the children and never count on the mercenaries being back next school year.
