Especially when every interaction with a black person at said black church involves you pausing the conversation to get the photographer’s attention.

If you go to church —any church really, but especially a church you are visiting— and bring your photographer to take pictures of you going to church.....

(Fanning face) Whew! Ahhh Michael, I truly do love your writing. Last two paragraphs are absolutely profound.

Ummm, why is everyone feeding the trolls? That’s bad business.

I have to do a gif repeat, but I feel this is the most accurate representation of how i feel about your statement:

You know it’s directed by the same guy who directed Fruitvale Station and Creed right? You can expect it to have just as much implicit messaging as Wonder Woman and Fury Road did.

White folks who like to call themselves allies please take note. She acknowledged she didnt know shit, LISTENED, then did something meaningful without making it about her.

The GOP weren’t about to abolish CHIP. They used it as leverage against the Dems and played it well.

The Democrats are already a third party in a two party system. Its between the Tea Party and the Old GOP right now. Democrats have made themselves into the new Whigs. And we all stood by and let it happen by continually accepting the candidates who were “the lesser evil” not caring that a lesser evil is still evil,

I’ve spent the past 24 hours arguing with my well heeled, Liberal friends that we sold out the Dreamers for nothing. That we ALWAYS sell out brown folks when it’s convenient. That MAYBE we have a moral imperative to do better.
