The National Anthem itself was based on a poem written while America was knee-deep in the slave trade so the whole “land or the free” is a bunch of bullshit anyway. When it was adopted in 1931 people of color still didn’t have full rights, nor did women, so the song is hypocritical to begin with. The National Anthem…

Fuck Hollywood and everyone in it until Viola Davis cracks the top 10!
Direct quote from my teacher...”When I look at you I see this big scary intimating figure (I was all of 6'0" 160 lbs at the time), but when you speak you say some of the most eloquent things I have ever heard.” “Gee thanks I guess!” was the only response I could muster. In all honesty I do wear my glasses for…
A lot of white folks (conservative and liberal alike, but still a general statement) look at blacks as either needing to be saved or refinement to reach our full (magical) potential, when really we just need a fair opportunity. I have had many white people walk up to me (in various situations) like the Blind Side lady…
Really?! That is the point...you had to give me WORLD FAMOUS athletes worth millions of dollars to their teams and at the time school. Wilkerson plays no sports Brock Turner was a swimmer. Banks was a star athlete with a future in football...yet he didn’t get the benefit that Wilkerson or Turner got (and he was…
Look up Brain Banks...here I will do it for you.
Sports helps for black men, but not always. Brain Banks comes to mind. Problem is black men are automatically seen as guilty (no matter the crime), and going back to slavery pre-civil rights times blaming rape or other crimes committed by white men on black men was common place. So many times even black athletes are…
Correction: white men. No judge has ever had a problem ruining a young black male’s life no matter the crime.
Two things: I knew Wilkerson was a white male because this statement has never been said about any black male in trouble ever:
Seems like my ass won’t be getting out the greys for this comment either!
I am black, so my ass isn’t on the boat (or the movie).
Is it so fucking hard to give women their own/new franchise?! This shit is just lazy. All Hollywood is doing is giving you Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck “Hey everybody you like the characters/story of Micky Mouse and Donald Duck? Well here they are again, but this time they are girls!” Lazy! Can we please give women…
A lot of movies don’t get sequels (thank goodness!) and I don’t see anyone caring. Was this movie hated on... yes! Was it overally praised...yes! At the end of the day it was just a fucking summer popcorn movie that some people like and some people hated and will be forgotten like 100s of others. Fuck people! Just…
I find it strange that being that Harley Quinn’s character at her core is seductive and fully obsessed with the Joker, that some people are upset she was presented on screen this way. Like they had no idea who she was before hand (probably). I mean you can get mad at the outfit sure, but the character was pretty close…
Can’t you just name it after an important powerful woman in MSU lore and allow men to study there if the like but just keep it female-centric? Back in my college days we had a black-cultural, study hall building. White kids were welcome to come whenever they liked, but the building was African-centric and put on a lot…
Barry Sonnenfeld is one of those directors that made one or two classics or cult classic movies(Get Shorty and MIB) and has been allowed to continue to make movies because of the memories we have of the one or two good movies they made. Even though they have made nothing good since. Sonnenfeld is somewhere between M.…
Basically people like that he wasn’t Bush. He speaks better and is more collected and polished than that asshole that was Bush so Obama gets a pass. If you talk to me and a lot of my black friends and family all we can say is “He has a beautiful family!” Other than that he hasn’t done shit and skated on “not being…
“Because the United States is a civilized country, and we don’t believe the rule of law only applies to people and situation to where we would like it to apply”
HRC supporters have cognitive dissonance in their blind support of her. On one hand they said “Bernie could never pass all that shit he wanted to” but on the other hand they say “Trump is End of Days and he will pass the craziest politics ever!” Like they only know how government works when it fits their narrative.…
