I think that would be an awesome idea. A lot of 60s and 70s icons laid the groundwork for Janet, Whitney, Mariah, etc. Diana Ross isn’t the person who comes to mind when you think of black women wrecking shit (largely b/c of Berry Gordy), but the work she put into her career is amazing. Tina Turner is another woman

I’m black, and I think less of any black woman who thinks Beyonce is a feminist. Like, I will seriously consider you a less than intelligent human being. It’s like being a Tyler Perry fan. Have some standards, for fuck’s sake, o at LEAST go catch a vintage Tina Turner performance.

Beyonce’s Bottom Bitch Feminism has practically ruined feminism for me. When I read about a bunch of educated black women crying because the Beyonce album meant so much to them and they’ve never seen anything like this before, I feel like puking. First of all, we already had this album TWENTY FUCKING YEARS AGO. It was

Honestly, I thought this whole thing screamed ignorance. Beck is a goddamn genius, and just because some random students who are all on in love with Beyonce don’t know who the hell he is doesn’t mean he’s less than worthy or that she didn’t win because she’s black.

HELL yes!!!!

I teach at my church. It’s where I was baptized, where my mother and her sister went to school, and where my parents were married. It’s where I meet my assistant principal after Mass every Sunday so we can play tennis with her husband and son. My church is literally the backbone of my life. The odds of this are low

You realize you sounded stupid BEFORE your “think about the poor white people” bullshit, right?

Would’ve happened at mine. He would’ve been let in, but all of his shit would’ve been searched like a motherfucker. Sorry, bruh, we don’t know you like that. Of course, we all probably would’ve been shot and killed right then, so...*sigh*

Is this because it had JUST happened, or is this a case of how the media treats black lives?

Gotcha. Now, get the last word in. You have my permission.

*falls over laughing* Good. We’re done here.

“I have really gone there with the experience,” she said. “From a very young age, [I] felt a spiritual, visceral, this feeling of central connection with black is beautiful, you know, just the black experience and wanting to celebrate that.”

First thing I thought when I saw that girl with the long hair. “Oh, God. Oh, GOD. Ohgodohgodohgod!”

Curious: would you have felt the same way had you not gotten a pass for what you wore on graduation? (We had the same rule, BTW.)

As a fellow educator, allow me to say that we do not give two tuppenny fucks about your kids’ shoulders. We do not write the dress codes. Nobody listens to us about the dress codes. If they did, your kid could show all the shoulder in the world. We will, however, get dragged to hell and back for not enforcing these

How dare you not care about the fragile mind of a nice white lady!

Spokane has like...six black people in the whole damn city. She acts like she’s the president of Compton’s NAACP or something.

Or maybe it’s just not minor to the people it affects.

I’m so relieved (and surprised) that he didn’t give one of those New Black Cap’n Save-a-Cracka answers. No, black women are not grateful that some psychopath is tryna help the nigras. Fuck her.

Queen Venus is here for all of this!
