I remember an instant in that meeting I mentioned. A white parent whose child overdosed said something to the effect of their kid not being “the kind of person you would expect this to happen to” and they pointedly made eye contact with me, the only black person in the room, as they said this.

Ahh! So thrilled you two got to meet her and have a lovely conversation about wine! I think if I could be friends with any celeb, she’d be my first pick. I “met” her at a book signing in a Macy’s around 10 years ago, and she was just the most beautiful person I’d ever seen. Her skin was illuminating. Did you find her…

Does Lesley Stahl have to choke a B....!?

If I was still wearing a retainer, I’m pretty sure I would’ve popped it during that scene, too, random internet child. In short, same girl, saaaaame.

Hey Hachi!

It hasn’t worked that well yet in South Africa. Or the United States.

To quote Caribou Barbie:

The conflating pro choice with “pro abortion” irks me too.

I want to hear from stadium snack vendor in the episode where they go to the Yankee game whose breakup advice was “Change your name, change your job, change your phone number–they’re all bums.”

This idiocy was playing while I was at the gym this morning.

That interview was certainly off the wall.

Something that hadn’t occurred to me until someone mentioned it on Twitter recently - one of the reasons these kids are so polished and good at this is that their generation has literally grown up on camera. They have always had camera phones and Vine and Snapchat and FaceTime and are so comfortable on camera because…

#TeamNakia b/c it’s more than one way to start and win a revolution. I said this on another site, and it applies here also... “I think the film could use a thorough Fanonian reading but I will not do so here... In short, regarding the age old question: “can we use the master’s tools to destroy the master’s house?” I…

All great points. It was interesting to see how he and T’Challa were mirror images of each other, in the sense that everything T’Challa was, Erik/Killmonger wasn’t. He (Erik) was hyper “masculine”, definitely misogynistic, and did not like being challenged by women, especially not black women. Man, I cannot wait to…

Loved the article, one thing I feel like we should talk about is how violent Killmonger was specifically towards black women. He was a revolutionary, true, but also a wanton Mysoginist. He killed his GF in cold blood, he choked out an elder, slit the throat of a Dora Milijae and his biggest diss to T’Challah was, i’m…
