Douglass’s new album drops on Tuesday.

American Christianity in a nutshell: freedom to choose which Bible verses should be upheld.

American Christian morals are based upon hypocrisy and hamster wheel logic. People like this women are one of the many reasons I became an atheist.

that white girl wanted to know

Agreed. Though I know several people who could be described as “passing” and they grew up very differently than people who couldn’t be described that way. I just wonder what Paris was taught about that.

The world doesn’t let us forget that we are black. I don’t have the luxury of not thinking about my skin color. I’m not saying that to complain, I’m just stating a fact of life for POC.

Disclaimer: My first reaction to Marshawn’s retirement (after extreme disappointment) was ohmygod please let him make a TV show about doing things retired people do. My argument then, as now, is that people love watching Marshawn interact with other people and situations because he’s clearly a smart guy who enjoys…

He was a proud black man with vitiligo.

her black dad told her to embrace her blackness her whole life

You raise an interesting point. MJ is quite possibly the only father she knows. If there is a biological white father and she’s never met him or heard about him (I assume she doesn’t think she was adopted), why wouldn’t she think she’s black if she’s heard it all her life from a black man who is her “father?”

There’s a difference between “appropriation” and “appreciation”. For ex. if not for the orange spray tan, lying to people that she was black, lying about her white parents, Dolezal was actually doing good work. But like I said, she could have done all of that as a white woman as well. It’s easy to spot an authentic…

Drag her, drag Ivanka, drag the fucking ten year old. I don’t give a single, solitary fuck anymore. Do what needs done.

Capitulating and playing nice with these motherfuckers for the last sixteen years has led straight to this shit. It’s time for us to strangle the fucking stupid out of them if we have to.

DRAG her. If we’re not safe, there is no one sacred in that administration, either.
