The amount of rachet hot mess that goes on in some churches. I have a friend her cousin’s been trying to get her to go to church with her (my friend don’t church). The deacon is with somebody’s wife, the choir director is with somebody’s husband, pastor is laying hands all over the place, the mother’s board is a mess…

Look at Virginia there was a trans woman elected in an off year election. People are pissed. In red Alabama there was a Democrat elected, more and more people are aware of how personal their vote is. Also in Florida there are a lot of pissed off Puerto Rican’s who can vote and it makes a difference. Let the…

There is a saying I’m selling it the way I bought it. She was informed by her cousins they couldn’t go to the beach that was close to the house because it is for light people. I know in Jamaica some beaches are owned by resorts and the native people have to pay to go to the beach but that is a whole other story.

Too true Dr. Strange had so much beautiful costuming. Black Panther will have this year as well and I am quite sure there will be no nominations since the costumes are not period.

This is too much in this future that we are living in. I was home in Trinidad and I saw this young woman holding a baby it was quite obvious the child’s father was white (in Trinidad the kid’s color stuck out because Caribbean country mostly dark skinned people). The child’s father came to join them he was old looked…

Colorism is an issue in the D.R. for sure. I had a friend in college whose people were from there and she still had relatives there. The beach close to where they live is for light skinned people. Her cousins told her she could go to that beach but they couldn’t so they went to another beach far away from their…

I will save my empathy for someone who deserves it. This cow came and talked out all sides of her face about “doing things the right way” when people are getting deported for the crime of being brought to this country as children when she got in on her back. Trump will treat her like garbage because she is owned by…

In my family’s case one of my great grandfathers was a married man so he couldn’t acknowledge his children “on the side.”

The thing is the previous government brought in Indians from India to do tech work and for hospital staff (doctors and nurses). They didn’t realize that their caste (lowest of the low) was the reason their ancestors came west. They learned from their distant relations that they are low caste and are not considered…

In my Trinidadian family there are Indian people. My cousins mom is Indian she and her husband (our cousin) did not get married for many years because of the old fashioned views of the family and not they’re okay.

They want to succeed when being aggressively mediocre. It’s not my fault you did not get into Harvard Becky with the bad grades.

I am West Indian and Indian people can be very racist against black people. My mom has a friend who could not get married because her parents were against her marrying a black man. She waited until they died, both of them to get married and have children with the man she loved by then she was in her mid 40's but her…

You could pick any year since white folks learned how to survive in this country from the native Americans then they began trying to kill them off for their land.

They know intellectually black women have more difficulty in life because that intersection of blackness and femaleness. However they cannot acknowledge that they benefit from our oppression as well.

Amen. White women did not care that African American women could not vote, they did not care when black women could not even go to school. All the conflict about women working outside the home that took place within the white feminist movement, black women never had those debates because we had no choice. Black women…

I am not watching that Handmaid’s Tale nonsense for this very same reason. Black women were dragged across an ocean to have all these things actually happen to them for centuries, it is only a problem when it happens to fictional white women? Have ALL the Seats!!! The issues that the United States are confronting…

I don’t know why these people take the bible as literal text it should not be. The bible in english is a translation of a how many times translation of orally passed down stories from 2000+ years ago. There are context issues first of all words literally cannot be taken literally since meanings change and the society…

I always buy Kit Kats that are made in England, there is a store close to where I work that sells them they are amazing.

She was not a slave when she was in France she was paid for her work. Hemmings she had actual agency when she lived there because she spoke French and could have found work there and stayed in France a free woman. I am quite sure her brother would have stayed with her because he very much wanted to be free and he…

Sally Hemmings could have stayed in Paris where she was free, she did not. Her brother James negotiated for his freedom upon his return to the states because he was educated and free in France. Sally could make the choice to return to the US when she was in France, she actually could in that situation make a choice…
