Well, I was given that information.
Yeah, sure. Fuckface.

Ugh Tiffany, melania and ivanka aren’t helpless innocent women held captive. They have agency. Tiffany trades on her name.
Jason Derulo has accused America’s shittiest major airline (unless we’re counting Spirit) of “racial discrimination” after an incident involving checked bags, $4000, and literal requests to “turn this plane around.”
I really miss Midweek Madness.
I smoke weed everyday and am probably an alcoholic, but I am well-informed about politics and celebrity gossip. The point is, we’re all going to die in a mushroom cloud.
The topic is fine, but podcasts are the fucking worst. Fusion, please stop.
I don’t entirely agree, specifically with it not being anyone’s place to disagree with Stacy Dash other than WOC, but we’re fundamentally on the same side and I think it’s okay to come at things in different ways. I’ll admit, I’ve been incredibly disheartened by everything since the march, and it’s not so much any…
But what about acknowledging that discomfort and forward motion have to live side by side, for ALL of our sakes? There are a shit load of issues with white supremacy as it intersects with feminism but it’s a plain reality that they won’t all be resolved before the next march or movement or election. That’s not a…
Can’t agree more!
I find it impossible to stay in a bad mood any time I hear any song from that record. Or Car Button Cloth, for that matter.

I wholeheartedly agree. This must be the 20th piece I’ve read on this subject in the last 10 days. I’ll await signs of substance. Some people are offering that we are to attend BLM protests/meetings and to donate. This is somewhat comical, as white “allies” are not always welcome in the safe spaces of these meetings…
I appreciate your comment but I’ve read several similar essays like this one now, and one can distill only a minimum of practical recommendation. In this case: bragging about no problems with police only serves to make other protests look like “bad” protests at the expense of those protesters. OK, that is a really…
Yup. There’s no win. The main take away I have gotten from reading years worth of this stuff is that black women and WOC are angry. I internalize that and accept it wholeheartedly. Why wouldn’t they be? Then I ask what can I do? I am told time and time again, “Listen to us. Read us.” I stare blankly at the…
These discussions are bankrupt. They plainly are. What are we even talking about?
Genuinely, what’s the goal? I keep reading articles shitting on white feminists. Fun times. What is the goal? For all your poetry, I see little more than, “Stop enjoying yourselves and listen to me”. I’m unsure why, in the slew of articles like your own, there is nothing that comes after this.
I am a Black woman & check this, “THIS IS NOT THE GODDAMNED TIME FOR THIS!”
Refusing to listen to white women who testify about their experiences with black feminists who make their brand about hating white women is not productive. That must be challenged.
MOSt people march for themselves and their own interests. And that’s fine. Often our interests intersect and we should build on that commonality. We shouldn’t let the areas where we lack commonality divide us and tear the movement apart. Few people benefit from Republican rule. So it’s in all our interests to make…
Organize my people? As though as a white woman, all other white women are my people? Not only is that statement is not in any way helpful to the progressive cause (as white women are not given magical powers to convince the worst of white society to change their minds), it also serves to create a false division…
