I know! At a certain point isn’t it OK to accept that things are the way they are, love your child, deal with your grief over not having a “perfect” child and move on?

Maiysha, you’re far too brilliant to give these trolls the time of day. I understand the temptation to educate, but you can only lead a horse to water. You can’t make it drink. Don’t waste your magic on white men no matter how hard they’re trying to get your attention. 

To quote Madonna: “If you don’t like me and still watch everything I do. Bitch, you’re a fan.”

*laughs in bless your pathetically basic heart*

Don’t forget, if you want your son to respect you, you must give him something to respect. :-)

To expound on points 5, 8 and 9 (optics of black church strong on lecherous, decrepit male leadership and short on male soldiers in the Lord’s army in the pews; professionalism and punctiliousness of gospel artist performers; Chernobyl toxic eulogy by Rev. Jasper Williams)....

If Jesus ever came back these so called Christians would hang a sign round his neck that said “Libtard” and burn him alive for being a brown, socialist Jew.

Lol little scared men make the most noise. Me me me mine mine mine me me me mine mine mine I paid I paid I paid wah wah wah what do you mean I no longer have 100% sociopolitical hegemony.

She would like to speak to all of the managers, and no, she would not like a glass of water while she waits.

You are confusing white supremacy as a cultural phenomenon (and its attendant white privilege) with white supremacists as a particular identity. Oluo was not calling Dolezal a white supremacist. She was saying that Dolezal was able to put on a “black” identity without having to actually experience what it was to be a…

“I was abused” isn’t the golden ticket to lie and appropriate someone else’s culture for your own benefit that you think it is.

Yes. So much to unpack.

My wife and I watched Get Out in Dubai where we live, about two weeks ago. It’s a modern masterpiece in my opinion. What an enlightening and odd experience viewing the movie with hundreds of other non American expats. Peele’ s movie is so quintisentially American in its depictions of its lead characters experiences…

This poor girl. And for those of you thinking she should have kept a lower profile, imagine if you’d been brought here as a child considered yourself every inch an American patriot, even believing you could participate in peaceful demonstration and freedom of speech. She might’ve been naïve but she didn’t feel she…

Amazing how the very same people who screamed the loudest about upholding the constitution under Obama are the same ones eagerest to take a dump on it under Trump.

“If you violate the law, if you block traffic, if you block access to a building,and if you are a black/brown person, that’s what this bill is for.”

Nobody is trying to “shame” you. If you FEEL that shame because you’re ashamed of how you’ve treated people because of your own bias, that’s on YOU, not on them.

Show public support, amplify the needs and the voices of people of color, interject when someone like you gets their goddamn panties in a wad because someone implied your race elected Donald Trump (it did).

Here it is: white women NEVER want to be blamed. Ever. I can’t count the number of times I have heard white people argue that one black person represents all black people. But somehow you are exempt from this methodology? The division is not false, it is super real, and your comment shows exactly why we still live…

Or maybe none of the white women you know have the balls to cop to voting for Trump, either way fuck you for implying that minorities somehow had more to do with him being elected than the group that voted for him. Fuck you
