It might also be that this person wants to be able to make this info available to any of the descendants of those formerly enslaved, should they inquire. Having been on ancestry boards with descendants of slave-owning families bearing some of my ancestors’ surnames, and not being able to get a single response to…

that’s exactly how i feel. just leave the descendants alone. sounds like this person is trying to ameliorate the discomfort of knowing he had shitty ancestors. my advice to him is just learn to live with it.

True, but if you look at it as something stolen from a brutually-invaded then colonized brown country and then cultivated on the backs of brown and black labor —including the slave who first pollinated vanilla outside of Mexico— to the almost exclusive financial benefit of Europeans and the descendants of…

Good for Tammi! Tonya really worked hard to get where she is now. I have no doubt Tracy will flourish at Fox News.

Trump is running the country like his businesses: multiple lawsuits at a time.

Putting “punk” in anything’s name is a guaranteed cultural identity crisis, ever since ‘77.

We should call her a moron and a hypocrite. As someone who has spent a lifetime railing against her Catholic family, this is some bullshit. You either are Catholic or you’re not.

Hi, stupid.

it’s the most segregated city I’ve ever lived in.

Chapter 1: an anointed Hillary Clinton lost in 2008 to the most inexperienced and unlikeliest president ever elected.

There is a virulent strain of liberal white racism that pops up every time rich white liberals start making decisions about their rosy-cheeked little golden Aidans, Jaidens, and Pipers. It’s disgraceful.

Also REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE IS AN ECONOMIC ISSUE!

Um, boo hoo?

I agree with this take, but I’d still take a righteous asshole antifa kid over a “Won’t someone think of the poor Starbucks” tut-tutter any day.

Sigh, I admire their willpower, but they should have let it fall apart. The only reason that bloated orange gibbon is still squatting in the Oval Office is the entire WH staff is missing-stair around him at all times.

Standing under running water in the shower IS washing your legs.

Don’t have oily skin or any derm problemos so I count my lucky stars.
