I never forgave him for those State of the Black Union Conferences my momma dragged me to as a child.

I’m pretty sure every Black person that voted yesterday will be included on the forthcoming BIE watchlist (as will most contributors to this website).

Please don’t underestimate the white media’s ability to make everything about themselves. They’ll hit you with another 2016 gem like ‘white working class voter’ that’ll leave your head spinning.

“but the group shifted hard in Democrats’ direction compared to past Alabama elections.”

Those specific whites are always gonna white. Rural southern whites have been on the wrong side of history for the better part of 250 years. We ain’t gonna turn them. We just gotta hope, like tonight, that their turnout is comparably low when we are motivated to show up.

We (in Atlanta) called my brother (in Auburn) and threatened to pull his plate at Christmas breakfast and dinner if he didnt vote today. Black folks everywhere should take this win.

Lets take this one at a time

Voting matters.

I got $10 that Kathy Rae actually lives in either Cobb, Cherokee or Forsyth County

there’s always a bit of irony in black Americans’ insistence on shooting down biracial folks’ blackness as inauthentic because of a white parent considering that the vast majority of black Americans absolutely have white blood from the not-so-distant past in our blood.

This story feels more gross every time I learn something new.

You forgot to mention pettiness. The black politicos supporting Norwood are using corruption as a cover. The truth is that they can’t stand Kasim Reed. They hate him. They want to see him crash and burn. Bottoms is a victim of her alliance with Reed.
