Go to the dream defenders website (www.dreamdefenders.com) and check them out. They usually have a list of stuff happening. Also, if you're on twitter, use the hashtag #shutitdown to see what's happening in the coming days.

There is no way this was filmed yesterday. There are protestors there NOW chanting "I can't breathe" and maybe mainstream media is editing that out of the broadcast, but on live streams you can see and hear the crowds.

Talking to my guy friend who is a law graduate studying for the bar. He said that this issue isn't the amount of evidence needed to take to trial. He said that a lawyer has to make the point that whatever evidence is presented before the grand jury could be further explained at trial. (which, to me, seems like what…

I think racism today is different than it was 50 years ago. Back then, you could openly discriminate, call someone a nigger or jigaboo and openly create a system of laws that made even the appearance of equality a distant notion. The "black/brown/gay/etc people are trash" mentality is still there, but the Civil Rights…

I hated the way she died. I wanted Jax to just walk in and smoke her.

It's very accurate. I've never seen so many pristine sneakers in all my life until I moved to Cali.

The thing is this though...this affects ALL people. It does. But, the racial divide in this country, couple with the "wont' happen to me" privilege, is all it takes to make this non-indictment business as usual. Sadly, cops are going to have to start killing unarmed white men for action to truly be taken.

Lol, she's mixed and I think she identifies herself as black mainly. I have a friend who looks very white but is also mixed and she identifies as black. It's always funny when she rolls up with a black guy and some haters are all "ugh...interracial couple" and she opens her mouth and puts that shit to rest.

...But she was here when Dodai was here too, so....

I was an ass when I was that age (and still am an ass, albeit toned down as an adult) and there's not shit my mom could have done to keep me from being an ass in a dry interview for the 100th time. I compare her handling of the interview process to that of a child in adult church service...in a traditionally black…

Whether poorly executed (which I think the majority of satire is) or not, doesn't dismiss the fact that she wasn't serious. Find it funny or not. Your choice. But, the amount of people who came in here thinking this post was Kara's serious attempt to get TS a black friend is why I posted the definition.

Yeah. I don't have the energy to break the comparison down, but I see where you're going with that.

Eh...

Fucking THANK YOU! Even if you think it's poorly executed satire, it's still satire nonetheless.

Fair enough. That's pretty much why I posted the definition. The comments are awash with anger and I'm sitting back confused thinking, "but...she's not serious."

L.O.L. With expediency.

Folks are really losing their shit over this. This is why we can't have nice things. Some racial tendencies are funny. It's okay to laugh.

Yeah, but I believe it's not easy because people don't know what satire is and sure as hell don't recognize it in print.

But...it is satire...

I'm just going to put this here:
