Yeah, but usually that results in not having to fuck with your boy anymore? Because if he hangs out with trash people, he may not be trash, but he’s trash-adjacent.

All of these pieces are written by people trying to defend their racist friends and family. They are utterly invested in seeing their loved ones as different from the “real” racists. I see it over and over again with my white friends. “I can’t just cut them out of my life just because they voted for Trump.” Fine then…

I really wanted Clinton to go: ‘who the fuck you think drafted the fuckin’ crimes bill’ every time someone went for the ‘superpredators’ remark. I like the guy, but come the fuck on - man’s record has some eyebrows to raise. 

“How to talk to a racist” is a one-word article: “Don’t.”

and that’s one of the major reasons Black America is in the state we’re in, we let way too many motherfuckers slide when they need to be cut loose. 

I could see it happening if Trump hires someone to keep Mike’s batteries replaced.

I’m sorry? But HELL WHAT?

Take the test. Having an implicit bias does not mean you are a racist, it means you grew up in a racist society. Internalizing and acting on your biases makes you a racist. Ignoring you potential biases and not actively working to correct them leads you open to acting or behaving in a racist way and does nothing to…

1.) The grays on this post are gonna be amazing.

I disagree that you all have nothing to gain. Racism makes you easy to manipulate.

Which is to say: America doesn’t have to be a white supremacist country. The fact that it began as one, and has acted as one for 242 years, doesn’t imply that it always necessarily will be one.

What struck me about this, as a respectable but impolite white person, is that she never gives any examples of her approach working. Because they never do.

That’s because prosecutors absolutely rely upon guilty convictions in order to pad their re-election campaigns. So of course a prosecutor isn’t going to do the right thing, as in this case.

It’s not just about no consequences.

Her first mistake is assuming that anyone wants to talk to those ass-backward racists.

We could gain our humanity.  That seems pretty important.  

A few weeks back I came up with the Invisible Fence model of society. It’s probably nothing new in concept, but it works something like this: just as a dog will feel entitled to go to any part of the yard where he doesn’t get zapped by his collar, so people in a given society will feel entitled to engaged in behavior…

Here’s the thing...

You do know that, even today,a majority of white folks are still more irate that OJ Simpson beat a murder rap than they are about cops knowingly arresting and convicting innocent black people just to meet quotas or improve the appearance of their work  

The most fucked up part of all of this is that White people will read this and still go back to “...I just think they should all stand for the anthem!” in like 30 seconds.
