I’m so sorry to hear about the boy that was murdered. How bereft of empathy must you be to blame a child trying to help someone for their own murder?

Even if that is the case many people agreed with him or her. They aren’t all trolls.
It’s vile to hold someone accountable for things they’ve said? That makes no sense at all. Neither does the, “I’m sure we’ve all made grossly misogynistic posts we regret,” line...
Do recognize that you’re still #notallwhitepeople-ing
Well on Jezebel’s SNS there’s a thread about how The Root’s not conciliatory enough to whites in their coverage of what happened today so... there’s that. And if that’s how supposed White allies feel I’m not very hopeful that this will open many eyes.
So make sure you don’t renew his contract, apologize to the employees he made cry for inadequately protecting them, and do better in the future. It’s great that you’ve recognized the issue but now it must be fixed and you must be vigilant so that it doesn’t reoccur.
What a gross way to characterize a broad commentariat and dismiss their views as invalid using statements that are demonstrably false, wow!
“The parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor.” 1 Corinthians 12:23 When people deal with color, class or culture in a negative way, that’s racism. But the answer is not to ignore these as if they don’t matter. Instead, we can look at color, class and culture in a positive way. That’s…
Groups on the fringes of whiteness are the most racist as they aspire to full membership in the cult of white supremacy. That’s one reason why Italians, Irish, and other “recently white” groups are over represented in hate groups.
I was commenting on the thread and just attached it to the top of the thread. You weren’t body shaming anyone; sorry if it seemed like I was accusing you, that wasn’t my intention.
Not everyone is in a legal recreational state you lucky bastard you!
This can only take you so far. Being proud of your blackness in 1901 still means that society’s position has limited your options in lots of ways. Similarly but much less dramatically, even if you personally don’t feel shame pervasive societal attitudes impact your social options, employment options, housing…
I’m disappointed but not surprised that a thread on body shaming devolved into body shaming of another sort...
Body shaming is body shaming
Republicans will do anything to obtain power, including pretending to be Democrats. That’s why abortion rights need to be a core value of the Democratic Party. Not only does it help to build a social and economic identity, but it makes it pretty hard for cons like this one to run cons as they’re wont to do.
I’m not an Incubus fan but an ex of mine was and I’ve been to several of their live shows with her. They are INCREDIBLY talented musicians even if their stuff isn’t my jam. I’m much more into Solange I’d love to see an entire joint show between them.
White nationalists are cowards at heart and rarely boldly proclaim their allegiances. Instead, as the clown above did, they hide symbols in a mess of unrelated graphics and text. Apparently several of these clowns wore these shirts to court.
Student organizations could ultimately affect some meaningful disruption with the divest portion of the movement, I’m not sure why you minimize their role. Divestments had a role in ending apartheid, boycotts helped power the civil rights movement, these aren’t meaningless levers - they’re very powerful tools.
Oh please. That you think the link between the 13th amendment loophole and mass incarceration that just so happens to affect some communities much more than others isn’t sufficient to power a dialogue on race says WORLDS about your perspective or lack thereof.
