I don’t think people need to apologize. She did the research she did BECAUSE she was jumped on, and came back a stronger ally and a better person for it. Sometimes you have to call people out. Clearly nobody ate her up, like people are saying. She recognized she was wrong and learned from it. If you want people to…

Very nice! And a good lesson to white feminists who do not want to be White Feminists.

Seriously! Rather than get upset and defensive, she did some research and acknowledged the weaknesses in her speech. Plus, she managed to shine a light on intersectionality in the process (something we all really need to talk about more). Kudos all around.

It wasn’t the speech itself, it was some comments she made backstage right after her win.

This is what she said in the press room after:

This is classy as shit. Good for her. People fuck up but she actually went out and learned something. Yay for learning!

Good for her! Acknowledging that she's a human who will make mistakes and is constantly in the process of learning. I'm glad that her previous statements served as a teaching moment for her and a lot of other people, and also served as a reminder for the need to include trans women and women of color in feminist…

I loooooooove the fact so many people are shocked and outraged at things they’ve heard and largely ignored from black people sine reconstruction. I think Dave Chapelle had a stand up bit about this very thing when I was in like middle school

Totally. I think the stigma is more that Charlie Sheen is a dirtbag. I felt really bad for people who are HIV+ who now have to find themselves associated with him.

If this walking piece of garbage is an all-American good guy, I can’t even imagine what a bad guy looks like to this asshole of a defense lawyer. I hope this evil pos rots behind bars for the rest of his life, constantly looking over his shoulder worrying that somebody might do to him what he did to those poor women.

HCC - thanks for posting. The fact that this case has gotten so little non-Twitter MSM coverage is precisely why Holtzclaw targeted the women he did. I beg everyone to follow this case, talk about it, and - if you can stomach it - watch how the media is already using the defense attorney’s rhetoric to dehumanize the…

Hoytzclaw faces a possible sentence of life in prison.

Fuck.

Stealing a phone is bad enough. But stealing a phone from a professional athlete? Who is likely to be able to catch you AND handle you easily once they do? Class one balls, foolio. He better be glad she gave him a way out.

If this is true (I really wanted them to be together)

I CANNOT wait for Drake’s sad ass song about it this.

Yep. Even in cars with a wheel, they’ll probably just ignore that input if the car deems it to be too dangerous.

Would you really sit at the drivers position, hands on the wheel and at the ready if you were in an autonomous car?

Feature, not bug. In a fully autonomous car, the driver deciding to take over will probably decrease the chances of a non-catastrophic outcome on account of humans being terrible at decision making, fine movement making, and driving in higg pressure situations, especially if they are performing other tasks like…
