I love that they’re calling her a “body activist” instead of a hot model who’s just not anorexic. Apparently all you need to be a body activist is to have your chest weigh as much as most models. So brave...

K...I really can’t think of one police shooting that was brought to media attention in which the police officer had any reasonable defense for killing the person.

He just can’t stand watching white men being oppressed like this while all across the nation blacks are not picking cotton.

You’re just desperate for attention, aren’t you? No one to love on Valentines day?

except yeah...he’s NOT high on weed. Well, not only weed.

“Black people make me mad! harrumph”

lol what are you talking about? Most of the black people who have been killed and brought to media attention were running from the cops facing away from them when they were murdered.

Actually, I don’t know this guys backstory, but the way minor drug possession charges (especially weed) can ruin someone’s life and send them on a death spiral is a very real and serious problem in this country.

A 90 minute chase with speeds up to 100mph, and the dude is still that coherent? He's lucky he's not black.

Piss poor in game rendering. Pretty sure an off the shelf game engine could do a better job. Hard my ass. The guys he hired were more than happy to take his money and run.

Being Black myself, I have never seen a Black cosplayer before I read this article. Not one. The fact though that the title of this is the Struggles and triumphs of black cosplay (emphasis on struggles) is a sad reality. Just the fact that there are struggles because of the color of your skin in something that is an…

If they paint themselves to look black? Yeah. I know it doesn't seem fair, but neither is the systematic oppression of an entire race of people for hundreds of years. Unfortunately that's the world we live in, and the historical context at play here.

No blackface is a terrible idea in almost all contexts. For an easy and entertaining explanation, watch Spike Lee’s Bamboozled, specifically the end credits . Again, NO BLACKFACE

People ARE virulently racist.

“This person” is referring to the attention being paid to pets while children have no clean water to drink or bathe in.

My comment was a general response to the topic of the article. Judging by some of the responses I’ve received, it was not an overly cynical assumption that not everyone would agree.

I used to work for a woman that shitty. I walked out and never came back.

I think Flint is the tip of the iceberg. In Flint, because the problem occurred pretty definitively with the decision to switch water sources, and because every level of government was incompetent or worse in response, the issue is in stark relief. In other cities, it’s probably a messier causal route (a matter of…

To wit, I believe that the children of Flint should be prioritized above dogs. I can’t believe this is a controversial statement.

It’s disgusting.
