And as a mixed raced child who had a white mother who took every single racial and sexist battle - and won them, I’ll say: the exhaustion is worth it.

When my son was in kindergarten, I consistently spoke up as the parent of a kid with autism, bringing those issues into conversations, and I worried that it would mark me as the Weird Mom, but after a couple of years I saw attitudes changing among the parents.

As a parent of a small daughter all I can say is your right but you are going to exhaust yourself. My daughter is also multi cultural, and if I had to sit her down and fight every micro bs moment we wouldn’t have time to have fun with life. The best I can teach her is that it is up to her to define her own existance,…

Given her social, political, and financial status, the chances of her “being carted off to jail” even for the most egregious of crimes is very low.

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s the truest and most succinct summation I’ve ever seen:

Get over yourself. I’m a Hillary supporter that plans on voting with the party.

Damn, even ALITO voted to block that law!

It makes me hopeful that Justice Kennedy will rule HB2 unconstitutional. Honestly though waiting to find out is going to make me insane. Every time I think about it I feel nauseous. I am hopeful that we are moving in the right direction but the fact that HB2 even exists is troublesome.

Good, good! This gives me hope that the country is finally headed towards the right direction.

He was used to that vitriol whilst a private citizen. Racism isn't anything new to black people in the Americas. I think it shocked white people, who thought the presidency ought to be treated with more respect. The reality is that race and racism are in the foundation of the Republic. Unless we have a time machine,…

For all the hate, vitriol, subtle and overt racism that was aimed at this man over the last eight years, did he not handle it with uncommon grace and dignity? I never asked President Obama to be a perfect President, such a thing is an impossibility. But he played the long game, never panicked, never showed fluster,…

Honestly I’ve always considered emojis genderless so I don’t even see the need.

Rock needs to meet my Chinese tween - all 4'5" of emo scorn and wrath. She loves to tell people she hates math.

and LASHZ

thank god. I’m so tired of using that male airplane emoji.

I wonder how many female versions are going to be “the current one with a bow and rosy cheeks”

It’s amazing that we’re practically creating a universal rudimentary hieroglyphic system.

Can I get one of me kissing a slice of pizza? Similar to this one: 💏

As a person of color I ask you : don’t say that please. Don’t repeat it. People hate Hilkary so much after the nth Bengazhi hearing/article/movie that they’ll start to believe that Trumo is not that bad. He IS BAD. HE IS EVIL. He woke up the white supremacists. He is terrible and would be a terrible president. Stop…
