I gotta think he’s catching hell from his classmates about his dad screwing around on his mom. Kids are cruel. And I gotta think he’s pissed off at his dad.

The issue I always have with people talking about voting third-party, is that the third party candidates aren’t about jack shit either. This isn’t a “Democrats and Republicans and the two party system” problem; it’s a “white people run the federal government” problem.

Actually.. not really...

Huh. Distraction? Nah, I’m set. Ain’t hard to entertain the two notions simultaneously.

This young man is following Justin’s lead and your instructions

I guess it’s spoiled not to want to die in your own school, eh?

A distraction LOL! that’s funny. Race encompasses everything that happens here so it can’t be a distraction to call something a thing when it’s actually there. This is the same argument people have about “being divisive” when mentioning that 53% of eligible white women voting for Trump. People need to see the…

Or alternately, because this is yet another example of white people doing something that black people have been doing for a while, at which point people actually start giving a shit. #MeToo was started by a black woman years ago, but it didn’t take off until a white woman took it up. Black kids have been walking out…

Why the objection to noticing that this same solidarity wasn’t extended over the last 5 years when teenage black kids were killed by police? Or how white women went out and marched for Women’s Rights while emploring the mothers of those black children to join them while not doing the same themselves? It’s a wonderful…

It’s been this way for uncounted generations.

I’m glad your friends are simply surprised by their children’s awareness and activism and not skeptical. Last week, kids all over Baltimore walked out of school and marched to city hall to protest gun violence. The march was posted by a local news source in Facebook live. I was livid by how many comments I saw from…

while i’m sure you have your reasons, i think the real target of michael’s criticism here is less the white kids who protest and more the white people who only notice when they do.

I almost believe “the sanctity” of progress in the US could not happen without a white face. See the Jewish lawyers who assisted furthering the US civil rights movements.

Cuomo’s politics aside, he was the architect of the first piece of real gun control legislation after Sandy Hook with the NY Safe act. Which severely restricted rifles like the AR-15. Something these kids have been clamoring for.

That’s the new tactic they’re using right now: “Let’s pass what we all agree on first, then work on that “other stuff””

How many times do we have to learn that this man is completely full of shit? He’ll say anything to anyone if they’re sitting in front of him then backtrack later.

“I believe this decision will allow the process of healing to continue for the Harris family, the citizens of Tulsa County and the hard-working men and women of the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office.” What exactly do the men and women of the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office need healing from?

One of the best pieces you’ve ever written was how much was a black body is worth. In the end tho, I still fail to see how this country keeps “justifying” literal murder. Fucking crackas
