She can feel free to get a job anywhere she wants, and any employer can feel free to Google her name and tell her to get lost if they don’t want to support someone with a history of racist tweets.

She was cancelled for her bigotry. Being black is irrelevant being a bigot is. This is 2021, you cant hide behind “teenage” misadventures as an excuse and only apologize when you get caught. She though her skin color and gender was a shield to woke inquisitions she was wrong.
Art collecting at “lower” levels (i.e. emerging artists) is challenging, time consuming, and more of a financial risk (not relevant to them).
Its one thing to look at these pieces in the context of some kind of frou frou gallery exhibit and another to see them decorating the homes of celebrities. I think the intent for these (rich white stereotypical “fine art school”) artists is to turn the gallery space into an ironic inversion of itself through the lens…
Here’s where your whataboutism has some holes.
Conservatives heavily pushed the idea of the model minority to help push minority groups against one another.
You don’t need to be a Trump supporter to get riled up by the rhetoric that’s going around. Minority groups have always been pitted against each other by the supremacist culture. So if the wider culture is giving you permission to act on your worst impulses, well, there you go.
“never ’officially’ broke up” pls get outta here with that noise rando insider (who sounds like a Lopez team flack holding tissue paper over the receiver)— these two aren’t junior high sweethearts. They probably need to disentangle their couple-based business deals or shared real estate holdings (that mansion they…
“Firing squad” shut up Sharon. They were trying to have a calm, civil discussion and you were the one who took it as an attack. The grace and patience Sheryl Underwood showed as you broke down in fake tears is immeasurable.
I feel like Halford doesn’t get enough credit for being a trailblazer for gay rights and changing hearts & minds when it comes to homosexuality. There is NO more of a conservative, bigoted group of music fans than metalheads. Him coming out as a proudly gay man was a big goddamn deal.
Bit late now William. The time to prove you and your family aren’t racist was at the golden opportunity you squandered when Markle showed up. If anything, they should have double doubled down on protecting her and sticking up for her, knowing how racist and vicious the UK tabloids are. That was when you could have…
That is a great and painful article.
I read a lot at The Root which is a huge part of why I can smell the crap now.
A real turning point for me was when I stopped commenting at The Root. Not sure if I commented very much before I realized my voice wasn’t needed in their conversations, but it was a definite switch-flip.

You can just shorten that to “I have no human sympathy”. The kid gets kicked off her grade 4 soccer team because of papparazzi, that’s simply wrong. She’ll never get to do that again. Why accept that situation ? Just because you’re too lazy to care.
Harry pulled an attention seeking stunt he didn't shave his head and start attending rallies. He admitted it was stupid and regrettable and has obviously moved on.
I haven’t forgotten, although I do think he’s grown quite a bit since that time. I don’t see how it follows that Meghan can’t experience racism, though.
Her IG is my ray of sunshine on gloomy days. I love her obsession with Ina,her wacky dancing, all of it.
My last apartment in NYC was on the second floor of a two-story building (a small business had the first floor), there was only one other apartment on the floor, and it was pretty clear that the second floor had been one unit at some point. I recreated the entire building in The Sims (3, in case you’re curious), then…
There will BE no response because she’s been murdered by Candyman! Does nobody in New York ever watch a damn movie? Yeah, it took place in Chicago but lessons can still be learned!
