I’m fine with her calling out slavery for what it was, that doesn’t bother me.

And pinning slave ownership in the United States on white people is... reasonable? Isn’t it? Are we really pretending that one’s not ours? C’mon.

Seriously. Drew went to college in like 1991, things are different now. You can’t just major in whatever you think is fun and get a good job afterwards. His advice is literally the worst.

I don't think he did it based on all the research I did, and I am big fucking liberal feminist.

This is a Gawker Media site, you are not allowed to say this.

He was wrongly convicted.

For $250,000, I would agree to never speak to a single member of my family ever again for the rest of my life.
