People are aware you exist, but we all have the voting data that proves you are the minority. When the GOP redlines they try to split the bit cities and merge them as far out as they can because that’s how they get more seats. I’m also a liberal voter in a GOP stronghold. You might not be a fan of it, but that doesn’t…
Whaaaat???? Thanks for the info. These are the times I’m glad I’m 44. I can’t imagine being in school and having books denied. English was my favorite subject, and the only one that gave me passion, because of what we read and discussed (a few are on the list). The train towards disaster is speeding up faster than I…
Republicans are already working on that, too, by removing the actual history of white colonizer brutality from textbooks.
This is hitting close to home. I remember arguing with brothers against the NWA and West Coast attitudes saying...sooooo if you state that you beat up bitches, smoke fools in drive bys and sell large quantities of drugs in the hood and the cops are supposed to act exactly how towards you??????? Nukkas killing nukkas…
I always knew it as being North Kentucky. Rural northerners in general have long had the same ideals as the South and pre-Trump hid behind the fact that the North didn’t have as many slaves. The only difference is many northern states contains enough major metros to vote the opposite from time to time. If Florida…
I assume this means that children are similarly given the option to opt out of white history for the other 11 1/2 months of the year?
That is effed up
I told my mother that when the GOP was done, we’d end up with an entire generation that knew nothing about the Civil War, the KKK, the Nazis, the civil rights movement amongst other things. By the time they’re done, the only “logical” explanation for a generation of kids for racial disparities is that whites are…
I’m from Indiana and there’s a reason we’re called “The South of the North”. when Parks and Rec had the joke about Pawnee Indiana seceding from the union to join the confederates I had to look it up because I WASN’T SURE IT WAS ACTUALLY A JOKE. there are so many god damn confederate flags up here that this does not…
Why is she doing this?????????????????
I didn’t know what the Montessori method was, so I’m looking it up on Wikipedia now, and it actually sounds really awesome. Treat kids like human beings instead of automatons to be filled up with information? What a concept! That’s how kids SHOULD be taught, and how I wish I had been taught. I was told I was a bad…
Please get out of my head! Seriously tho, you are so on point; I’m also over labeling folks as icons...folks who have only been on the scene for like, six months.
Very true, the people who truly care about him have been pushed away by him, Sad to see.
I’ve always maintained that despite his heel turn, Kanye is far too valuable to the Black community to completely abandon.
Exactly and there’s no way around, except for sellouts and people of flexible morality, ethics, and values.
No ammount of personal pain justifies him supporting and parroting white supremacists and Trump. “He’s like my father” said the pathetic sellout man.
Kanye West was never a musical genius, in Hip Hop or otherwise, and I wish yall would stop such nonsense. Prince was a genius, Stevie Wonder, Curtis Mayfield, Bob Marley, Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, Mighty Sparrow, Ella Fitzgerald, Lord Kitchener, John Coltrane, Winston Marsalis, Nina Simone and so on all deserve the …
I refuse to believe that there haven’t been people willing to help Kanye.
The boy needs help. And no one is there to do it.
