Jesus. Now that you have shared it I feel like I should have been able to come to this conclusion (considering my understanding of the institutional racism in the US) but...for it to be this prevalent and no recourse is mystifying.

It’s a combination of many factors from the availability of healthcare in certain areas, the cost of that care, and also the way medical professionals treat women of color.

Yes, that black women have a higher mortality rate than whites is a shame that should not exist in this country, but this case is not really emblematic of the problem. Kyira delivered in one of best hospitals in country, and her death was more akin a run of the mill medical negligence that could have happened to any…

Three relevant bits of information:

“If the only way your child will listen is if you hit them then you have fucked up your job as a parent.”

He aint going nowhere, fam. Just the fact that the judge allowed for the statement to be made shows that everybody involved is trying to destroy Constand’s credibility.

Glad she made sure to get out of that situation and get herself help.

It’s certainly a lot more crowded, cost of living is much more expensive and all of the minority communities, have ballooned in size.
That being said, no matter where you go, you’re gonna run into the proverbial alabaster who is afraid of losing what was never his to have in the first fucking place...

I live in Denver and watched this on the news last night... 

Colorado is pretty progressive, but you still have your pockets of stupid.
The thing about CO is, we are over demand and under-supplied when it comes to apartments (fukkin transplants) so her apartment wouldn’t stay vacant for long!
Fortunately, this young lady…

“I’m calling myself stupid, and I don’t want anyone to be stupid like me and get scammed,” Edge told CBS New York, voicing her frustration.
