So let me get this straight. a white actress from a country with a history of sustained oppression and instances of legislated erasure of people of color, manages to erase And dismiss the history and barrier breaking work already started by people of color. Well Color me shocked.

Nah! This is the work of a crisis management team that has probably been involved with Kanye Incorporated, in varying degrees since his very public hospitalization.(I say “public” because I am not certain, that there haven’t been other times).

Tis’ the mother fuckin’ Season huh!

Your article brings up many valid points and issues. Cancellation of a series is typically complicated and nuanced.

Love this. Congrats to these young women.

A red card for trying to protect and maintain dignity. That is appalling. The lengths so many will go to. 

After my AYSO days, from the age I was 12-22, I was called a “nigger” by either a parent, a coach, a refereee, an administrator, or random Drunk college assholes in every single game i played. In the United States. Every. Single. One. And I grew up, and played college ball in Southern California.

Perhaps it’s not justifiable to YOU. The reactions a person has to someone using White Hate rhetoric, the same rhetoric and language that has been and is a precursor to violent oppression, slavery and genocide, is truly not something that anyone should judge from afar.

The NCAA thinks they are disposable. 95 percent of coaches in FCS football think, treat and act like these 17-22 year olds are di…

I knew I kept this for a reason!!!

I get the qualifier, and This is not confrontational in any way.

I didn’t even put the two together. Thanks for pointing that out. And This would be a great spot for a bi-annual huge block party celebrating black excellence.

Tiger Woods. Here I’ll say it again. Tiger Woods contradicts your argument that it’s better business to be outspoken about racism and inequalities in today’s landscape. He has stayed quiet regarding racism and ignored it. And now that he’s popular again, he once again chose to not say anything and stand with the…

I’m of two minds here. One, Rodeo is such an iconic street, but President Obama’s is such an iconic and important man. Seems like a good fit. And this area is such a vital part of the city and it runs through so many areas that represent the diversity of our community. Plus I went to Baldwin Hills Magnet elementary…

She is a terrific journalist. I would love to see her on Real Sports over on HBO. If there is one thing that brother Bryant Gumble isn’t doing, it’s bowing down to the White Hate Drones and their operators in the White House. 

To ID them for future positions in the Department or to see who had the face people can trust that will run for Congress.
