In San Francisco seeing an exposed penis on the sidewalk, or in the street* is known as “errydamnday” and I’m pretty sure if you reported seeing that shit to a cop they’d laugh and ask how big it was.

I mean, this is stuff Howard Dean was saying way back in 2005 when he was head of the DNC. Too bad they scrapped that plan after Obama won.

Of this there is no doubt. You might even say that Cheddar Man had no race, because he existed before modern racial differentiation was even conceived (by imperialist white people), and beyond that, where there simply wasn’t as much phenotypic variety.

It drives racists crazy when you try to remind them that dark skin and an African heritage is a trait shared among all humans at some point in our genetic history. It doesn’t matter that Cheddar Man’s race was technically one that no longer exists.

A part of it might be racism, but it’s also impact on the West as a whole and America pretty specifically. In the case of Musa, it’s not really there, unless you want to go down a much less fun rabbit hole than this article really cares to.

What’s odd is Mansa Musa and Mali are actually in the history textbooks, but people don’t seem any more familiar with him and the empire he ruled than they would be if they weren’t. I’m sure part of the reason is racism, but it’s still always struck me as odd.

Yeah, all I get for that is stars.

Every time his name comes up, I’m terrified that I’m the only person who has ever made this connection

I’m in the wrong line of work if being an asshole on the internet gets you free stuff. Damn.
