Seriously, WTF?!?
Seriously, WTF?!?
OH. MY. GOD.
the most BRUH that has ever BRUH’d
The court opinion also noted that Dolezal claimed that the university’s decision to remove some of her artworks from a February 2001 student exhibition was “motivated by a discriminatory purpose to favor African-American students over” her.
Prince George: The future does not bode well for my hair. Please let me have Mummy’s shiny locks genetics.
I was going to post “cue someone for snarking on a celebrity for trying to do a good thing, even when they, unlike most celebrities, take the time to educate themselves about their pet issue and devote serious time and effort to it.”
The media couldn’t give two shakes about summits like this. (How often do these sort of summit meeting making it on Jezebel alone? Anyone?) But add an A list star and now you have a story. It’s sad but true. And Jolie knows this. If she is anything, she is media savvy. So, good for her for manipulating the media into…
She does not live, nor is she from South Africa. She will be most useful in swaying funds from her rich friends and shining a big old light on this problem. Were Joile to start creating policy it would likely reek of white saviorism.
I’m actually 100% white and I can’t fucking stand the “I’ve been privy to their racist comments against minorities because clearly ALL white people are in this together” thing either.* Some white people just assume that races are “teams” and we’re all obviously out to get each other.
That racism wasn’t aimed towards you, though. It was aimed towards visibly ethnic Hispanics (I am one of those) that have it infinitely worse than you ever will.
I’m 100% Hispanic but am very light skinned and grew up with a white last name (long story) but I think I’m just as capable of experiencing racial discrimination as my darker brothers and sisters. Because many white people have assumed I’m white, I’ve been privy to their racist comments against minorities because…
This happens here in Japan, too, although everyone is very hush, hush about it.
This is exactly the situation with *both* of the kids Madonna adopted. Each had family that were struggling financially, and Madonna swept in and took them away. Disgusting.
There's a long history of orphanages taking children whose parents cannot afford to care for them (I'm aware of this happening in Korea but am sure it happens elsewhere too). Unfortunately, this does mean that kids with parents who love them get adopted and shipped halfway across the world. Terrible.
I agree with Dangertits. My roommate washes his hair with bar soap. While he is a stone cold FOX, his hair feels and smells like shit. The only thing that distracts from the oily scalp and dry ends is his great big beautiful smile and warm eyes. Since I am now impervious to those traits as lure, I can see: its just…
Not to horrify you or anything like that, but this mindset is incredibly common among new mothers.
@formergr: Seriously, and I resent being the person in the family who has it. Someone else always does his worrying for him. How is that fair? I need him to feel some fear about his career, as I feel about mine, so that we can, you know, provide for our family and afford the comforts of life we've wanted. We can't…
@morninggloria: My husband is Italian, and he never washed his own clothing, used to call me when he was making macaroni and cheese to ask how long he needed to boil the water (WTF) and in general was useless at cleaning up after himself. It has been a long road that involved me explaining that I was, in fact, not…
