And a significant amount of those minority residents are originally city-dwellers, who had to fucking move into the ‘burbs (suddenly, there’s cheap rent in a lot of places), due to gentrification that is occurring in their places of origin.

I’ve never heard anyone call Cocopuffs a “crackblunt” before... but it’s fitting, and I like it.
Yup. In Atlanta the white-flighters have made it to damn near Chattanooga as PoC continue their move into the suburbs. Talking people willingly driving 90 minutes both ways to get to work because “reasons.”
While this information reveals the racial divide in America, it may soon be overshadowed by my groundbreaking study showing that eating a Krispy Kreme doughnut while drinking whiskey and smoking a joint rolled in bacon as you dance in your underwear to Prince’s “Kiss” can help fight depression.
Yup. That’s it exactly. HE’S the victim now. *rolls eyes* That’s exactly how he’ll talk about this event in future.
So full of fear and loathing of Black being; that they are ready and willing to sacrifice their own potential pleasure on the altar of racism.
First of all, dude is ugly, and the stenciled sign was ugly. I’m too old to care about a promposal, but if it’s supposed to be a more grand gesture than, “Hey. We doing prom, right?” this was a hella lazy effort. Did he forget to get the fake cotton from Hobby Lobby?
Have you ever as smug an asshole as Jordan Chronister? This guy and his father, and likely other members of the group were drunk and simply looking to get those black women off the course. If they were white, especially young white women out there dicking around and twirling their hair this turns out differently. You…
We all know this was about these black women having the temerity to occupy this ‘white space’. We’ve finally come far enough in this society that directly forbidding their presence is more difficult than it used to be. Instead of making up excuses for why well connected black women can’t have a membership, or can’t…
I’m glad I adopted the “fuck the NFL” position post 2014 when Ray Rice beat his fiancée up and dragged her out an elevator and they didn’t pretend to give a fuck. Honestly, I don’t miss football. Boycotts are only hard if you really care about the products I guess.
“I don’t apologize to people I don’t think I’ve wronged. All of a sudden, the message is changing, because we did not consent to the meeting on Sunday.”
Well obviously the most important issue is that the revenue streams of these billionaires stay uninterrupted.
Every article about Melania should include the link to her on Fox News spreading birther trash.
Not even just complicit. Actively racist. Potentially genocidal, even, what with “look, my parents are U.S. citizens now and I don’t really care about the brown people languishing in the private detention centers being deprived of their constitutional rights and whether they get out or not”.
I’ll be honest – I’m struggling a little bit with how (some! *sigh* of) the male writers of color for The Root and Splinter stan for her, particularly in the wake of some of her other transgressions.
My only gripe was that I felt Angela Basset was underutilized, I’m hoping one of the deleted scenes gives her some more speaking time.
“..I just wanna say thank you to a lot of what is actually black women who have rallied around me and started and spurred all of this. For them to tell me that i’m beautiful and for them to tell me i’m attractive...”
M’Baku (or, as my five-yr-old called him, “Mr. Woof”) was SO GOOD. More roles for Winston Duke, please!
I get so fucking angry reading these stories. Time after time after time, “I feared for my life”. Meanwhile about 10 blocks away from my work, a white man drove down the sidewalk and killed 10 people, got out of the van, held up a cell phone claiming it was a gun and the police officer walked right up to him and…
I am noticing how the media is avoiding the topic about the Alabama branch of Waffle House, in which a woman was forced on the ground and manhandled by police.
