“couldn’t stand to be married to a white woman of equal intelligence”.

I’ve had the inverse happen to me- once in HS I was babysitting my cousin at the pool. Some black kids nearby were making a ruckus and the white lifeguard came over to tell me to control my children. Both me and the misbehaving kids stopped and gave him the stink-eye as I explained that no they weren’t mine, I was 17

Yeah, it’s internalized racism. The recent coverage of police shootings should have taught people that being black doesn’t mean you can’t do racist shit to your own people.

An Oreo is also offensive slang for a black person who is “white on the inside.” Usually reserved for someone who “acts white”, but even people who are part white get called this.

Fried lung is delicatacy in some countries. Nothing about Trump is delicate except his ego and his hairdo.

Creepy married neighbor who wanted to hold my hand/waist as we walked down the street.

Whatever, Karl was better.

That was during the whole semi-standoff thing where it was unclear whether Brown had another manic break, was about to go to prison forever/get shot for for doing something seriously wrong, or was framed. The latter turned out to be true in this case.

She has never been self aware

If more people had financial security there’d be waaaay less crime anyway.

Fuck no artists don’t get a pass. Artists are a part of society, as much as some of them believe they are apart from society.

Why do you think the hippies had locs? Where do you think they got it from?
