Having two people of color announce the predominantly white nominees, though...

God they’re going to give all the awards to joker aren’t they? Well I’ll be rooting for parasite because it’s probably one of the best films of the year and is easily the best one in director and best picture categories.

If we can only have our one allocated slot per category (and not get that anyway), I would have preferred Lupita over Erivo any day. But to cap off the indignity by having Scarlett Johansson nominated in two whole categories? Colour me unsurprised, and keep the Scarlett representation jokes coming.

Cynthia Erivo nabbed the Leading Actress nomination for Harriet.

Antonio Banderas is an European who happens to be white, speaking Spanish doesn’t make him a brown Latin American.

Thank you! These aren’t cases where the evidence against them is weak and their penchant for underaged women unknown. I honestly think their defenders want black men to be free to rape like white men instead of accepting the fact that people should just.stop.raping. people

“New York City taxpayers have to pay dearly for the bad judgment of officers who ripped a baby from a woman’s arms during a visit to a human resources office last December.”

Curtis, I say this with the entirety of my being...

It’s funny to me (not really) how these types of Black men who accuse powerful Black women like Oprah of anti-Black male bias for calling out misogynistic behavior by prominent Black men (e.g. Simmons, Bill Cosby and R. Kelly) never show compassion for their victims, who’re are almost always Black women.

I think one big thing is that they’re more “officially” non-violent than actually non-violent, with anyone who wears a yarmulke knowing to give them a wide berth.

so it’s cross-curricular too, the ideal assignment.

Ha! I remember this one!

“Calling me a racist is not unlike calling Mahatma Gandhi a violent man” Catiana said in a sworn affidavit.

There is literally not a racist thought in my head, nor a racist molecule in my body

Racist bone disease has now spread to the molecular level. Truly a sad sight to see.

“There is literally not a racist thought in my head, nor a racist molecule in my body, nor have I ever made a racist comment, or acted in a racist manner in my life …”

Just wanted to say that I always thought that the chapter with Dr. Manhattan’s origin story in the Watchman comic was very beautiful and moving to me and I feel like this episode really captured that tone well. It felt like revisiting that part of the book, or an echo. But I’m more invested in the characters this time…

It reminds me of the heartbreaking perfect ending to Arrival, where Amy Adams is well aware that if she enters a relationship it will lead to a daughter who will die far too young, but happily does it anyway because the good will far outweigh the bad.
