Yes. She killed it:

Jesus. Why am I not surprised? I am (as far as I know) the only black person in my little town here in east TN, and people say the most amazing things to me in their efforts to convince me that they "don't see color". Racism...it's everywhere and nowhere. How right you are.

I gotta know - What counts as racist in 2014? Not racist: telling lynching stories to a man of color after questioning his (nonexistent) prison record. Not racist: shooting people of color who knock on doors for help/listen to music in the car/buy skittles.

Heya, I wasn't trying to dismiss your point about things being bad, I just wanted you to understand that for a lot of people (for me anyway) these stories are nothing new. The only new aspect about it is that their finally making the news and people are finally listening to us. I think the internet and social media…

Well sure, white people can't own slaves anymore, but when a guy can shoot and kill a black teenager for looking a little scary and get away with it, and a fireman can refuse CPR on a dying old lady just because she's black, I don't think things "used to be way worse" just because black people can sit wherever they…

Move over, Affluenza, "I am the victim because I made a mistake" will be our newest batshit crazy legal defense.

"There's a guy in the woods who has raped x number of women, so be cautious and report suspicious behavior" tells women to be wary of one specific person in a specific area until the danger has passed. It also allows the predator to be caught. "There are rapists at parties so don't drink" doesn't offer any predator…

I can't even give him that. My ex was sexually abused by his stepfather for years. It was not violent. However it was exceptionally brutal to his sense of self and forgive the melodrama but his soul. He was mentally raped as much as he was physically raped. To say that physical force is required for rape to be…

We don't have a long standing precedent of blaming victims or making up myths that blame victims in cases of robbery or identity theft etc. There is no shame in saying someone broke into my house and stole XYZ. Police don't say things like well you donate to charity, could it be you let them into your house to take…

that was NOT long and/or unrelated. it's a perfect example of how we cannot trust the police to believe or support us in cases of assault or rape.

I'm doing you the compliment of assuming you are not a troll, although your accusation...."So you think there's absolutely nothing wrong with——" is itself a false accusation against me and makes me wonder if your comprehension problems are so bad that you have similar problems understanding women in other contexts.

Brutal means "savage, animalistic, base, harsh, cruel" not violent. Not all rape is violent, but rape is a cruel, harsh, animalistic and base transgression against the victim's bodily autonomy, even when it isn't "violent".

Holy. Fuck.

I'm not surprised. This is from the same police department that sent an officer to my apartment to take my statement (after I had been drugged at a party and ended up in the ER not breathing) who, upon hearing my story said to me:

"I don't believe you, I think you are lying. I'm going to file your report but I'm also…

There was a story here last year where a rape victim got in some legal trouble for publicly identifying out her rapists when she felt that she wasn't going to get justice in court. I seem to remember it being because the rapists were minors, or because there was a media black-out about the case. I'm not sure if…

Hamilton Nolan tweeted that the trial was evidence that Florida can't convene a 12 person jury without one racist making their way in.

I made it to 1:39 and proceeded to do this:

Seriously. I tend to like their stuff, but it's always way too literal. I'd love to see a Star Wars inspired collection that didn't look like someone cut up a promotional tee-shirt and stick it to a flowy dress.

Gone too far this has.
