There could be a movie in that, like maybe if there was one high performing cop; a real angel of the streets; who was so high performing he made the other police officers look bad, and they transferred him to some backwater where he discovers smalltown corruption and has to smarten up the local PD even as he clashes…

White people always point at/blame the pipeline, then they never do a goddamn thing to FIX THE PIPELINE. They don’t want us to be able to compete with them.

Okay, this is like .... you trying to rewrite Anne’s article all over again. Not to put too fine a point on it, what she was saying (and what you seem to want to avoid saying) is that in order to hold one of these positions, barring certain ... finagling, you either have to come from money or be married to it.

I wonder how many people of color were interviewed for the position that Timothy Ann Burnside holds.

The lack of Black Curators, the lack of Black Curators in the pipeline, the lack of Black Curators being hired debate has been going on for years. The major requires one to spend a LOT of money and the curation jobs that really pay are few and far between.  

I wonder how many people of color were interviewed for the position that Timothy Ann Burnside holds.

Saw that at the NYT. Do I think it will prevent him from being seated? Probably not, but I admire her courage.

Watch and learn be just as confused as the rest of us!

We finally know where The Village is located!

Why are people trying to @ me in these comments 

The reporter tried to get her to speak on her Japanese heritage and what it was like living in America and Osaka told her that she was raised in an Haitian household with her Japanese mother and she lives in America.  She looked like she’s had to break that ish down more than once.  

Pure trash. I’m the most vigilant tennis watcher. But I remember that man who is now selling deli meat on the tv with his wife used to have absolute yelling fits while playing tennis and no one every talked about poor sportsmanship or fines. GTFO.

I’m so happy Anne is writing about this so I never have a reason to go to that site. Fools over there asking if people can now get over the Serena hype.

Also if you didn’t cry when Serena said “you owe me an apology” because you felt that in you, too then GTFOH.

Many people are saying that Osaka would have beaten Williams in the 3rd set. That’s not the point.

I wanted to curse out that interviewer who went out of her way to ignore Osaka’s Haitian heritage until Osaka herself had to check the reporter.

Okay let’s look at it this way. The coach admitted he was coaching. He also admitted that he doesn’t think Serena saw him, and that even Osaka’s coach was doing the same thing. So was a rule violated, probably. But like arresting someone for jaywalking, it seems like this umpire chose to be specifically petty towards…

I want to hear Tiffany Haddish’s version of what went down.

I hate it when I make a joke that’s real
