I can’t believe that we have invented YET another thing African Americans can’t do without being found threatening. Do not clench or raise your fist. That is proof of your partisan activity and you will be punished accordingly! What in the..??? Ironically, this is WHY we need SOCIAL activism like BLM, by the way BLM…

You equating BLM with Nazism says all there is to know about you.

Yes. Mainly because that’s completely and obviously different.

I’ve been a poor single working parent and an upper class married working parent, and imo upper class white married parents who are miserable are full of bullshit. On a daily basis, the worst thing parenting is 99% of the time is tedious. And yes at times it’s exhausting. But my kids were also fun and entertaining.…

Don’t a lot upper-class whites (upper-class in general) complain about shit that the rest of us as normal and might actually appreciate? When you have no natural predators...job loss, low income, crime, police killing you, you have healthy food choices, you have life sercurity...you have to find some bullshit to…

I get the indignance but I think its snarky nature fails to further the conversation in exactly the way Kathryn is talking about in this post. I mean, did Foye mischaracterize maternity leave horribly? Yes. But was she trying to insult moms or tell them how easy being a mom is? Obviously not. She’s just combining her…

That’s not completely true though. So the dudes that get time off also expelled a baby from their body? People that adopted also somehow managed to expel a baby from their body? No. It’s an allowance for creating a new family and dealing with that. It’s a chance to spend some time on something you find to be important…

First of all there is no golden path for mothers at work. It’s not a rose garden.

My boss told me today I could go home early if I needed to because I was getting a little upset about my aunt. She said I cover for people so much that if I needed time for myself to take it. It was nice to hear that. Not everyone gets that support.

I also loved how Larry Wilmore did not give a single fuck about the audience. He straight up did not care about their opinion or their reactions except to laugh at them for being a tough (white) crowd.

To be fair, most white people are comfortable with jokes about race as long as they’re the ones making it, not the ones receiving it. At least from my experience. Props to Wilmore though. His show deserves more recognition than it gets.

People are fucking weird. This was HILARIOUS. And all the more so by how many complete cringe worthy moments there were, of all these media people being entirely unable to laugh at them selves. Did you guys see Blitzer’s face?? If eyes could kill, Larry would be dead. Dead, I tell ya.

Think about it. Would you rather have a kingdom or an empire?

Theres totally a win here. Pick a race thats neither white nor south east asian.

What the shiiiiiiiittt.

Seriously? Did she say she was bestowing her white lady approval? No. She included so many disclaimers in there to avoid this exact response.

Thank you!

(I’m feeling like I had a lot of feelings about this and I’m trying to get them organized in the right way, so this might not make a whole lot of sense. And as a white lady, I might misstep, please don’t yell at me, I’m trying.)(I’m super grey anyway, so most of y’all probably won’t even see this!)

Non-black POC need to stop expecting black Americans to stand up for their plights and causes when they never show their fucking faces when something is going on for us. Nor do they combat anti-black American biases within their own communities.

I would like for people, esp. other people of color, to stop acting as if black people are in this privileged position where everybody takes our concerns more seriously than they take the concerns of other marginalized groups.
