My dead Grandma voted last week! 

This is my problem with Dansko’s. 

And I’m going to be resentful as hell the whole time I have to fill out that accident report. There was a time you didn’t need to involve the police in every fender-bender that occurred. 

I’m with you, but I think it’s hilarious that she uses being a member of the COS as the ultimate evil!

She’s also white and cute. 

Thank you. I’ve starred your posts a number of times and they just won’t stick!

I thought that video was Ghislaine Maxwell. 

Just trying to educate myself.

I have been taking E.D. Mondaine’s words to heart.
It is really hard to know the best way forward here at this time, but I’m just going to keep on listening, trying to learn, and doing the best I can. 
The Root remains a great place of learning.

As I said in another post, I haven’t delved too deeply into this, so I don’t feel like I can comment on the details until I do.

Without going into a bunch of details (because I’m too damn tired), but the optics in Portland are perfect for our divisive country.

With all respect,  realize I’m one of those people you’re referring to. I am trying my hardest to be an ally.
I usually don’t ask what we white people can do, because it’s not your responsibility to educate me. But I am truly at a loss here.

I will remain hopeful. 

I would venture to guess that most of the Moms were there to do that. But clearly some failed to do so.
Should we damn it all for that?

So what should white allies do in a predominantly white city, in a state with a racist history?
Stay home and shut up?

Derby, you may understand Bipolar Disorder, but you are an idiot and a troll on this site.
Just stop. 

I haven’t delved in to deep into the nitty-gritty of this, but the response I saw from Bev Barnum seemed more like she wasn’t trying to be shady, she was just going ahead with what she thought would best serve the group - whomever was the leader.

I sincerely hope there can be some kind of reconciliation/understanding with all of these groups.
We are all learning here, trying to do our best.
Can’t we do it together? 

I know Andy Cohen isn’t a real actor, but he’s a dead ringer for Epstein!
