Seattle Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett penned an open letter claiming that he was racially profiled and…
Quick question: Had anyone seen that post before Ray brought it up?
This is a man who had Jeff George’s cock in his mouth so long he could describe it down to the root. This is a man who not three hours after Steve McNair was murdered by his mistress chose to write an article calling him a lousy husband & father all the while extolling the virtues of strip clubs. This is a man who…
I truly believe that an integral part of any and all get out and vote efforts should include: 1) getting people registered early 2) assisting the poor and/or elderly with obtaining state IDs (driving folks to the DMV, helping people get copies of their birth certificates (for those really shitty voter ID law states),…
If someone supports Voter ID laws but refuses to provide said ID required for free it’s pretty much a guarantee they want to stop certain groups from voting.
Facing a decade and a half in prison couldn’t stop her. Losing a loved one to suicide didn’t destroy her. Battling…
Black-on-black crime is an epidemic. Whites committing 85% of white homicides? Oh, that’s not a thing. What’s the problem?
Yeah. It’s like saying “there are whites out there who are glad mostly-black parishes in LA were swamped during Katrina.” Well, not most whites, just the mother of the president of the United States.

I, and my fellow regular commentors here on The Root, have collectively decided we’re NOT gonna Blacksplain or conduct Cultural Awokeness 101 classes anymore.

Right the comment section is already filling up with burner trolls.
Once again, it’s Friday, which means it is time to sort through The Root’s mailbag and soak in our readers’…
Philosophical question here: Does anyone actually celebrate Columbus Day? Granted, most 9-to-5 workers enjoy it as a…
That Cool Breeze album bangs.
People not covering up the past: wanting to take down memorials that whitewash history.
Black suffering has always been a stabilizing factor in America. The idea that the lowest white man is better than the best black man is what has kept society together in the face of extreme wealth inequality.
That’s not a really apt comparison. Lee and Washington were both traitors, both owned slaves (Washington while rebelling Lee about 10 years before). I would argue that the biggest difference is that Lee’s career lacked the major blunders that Washington’s early military career had.
“First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is…
