The thing is, not all Black people are men. And when you say that these people are making the biggest political statements, you have to look at what they have to say about Black men AND Black women. For some of the Black men married to white partners who make Black art, it’s interesting how Black women are either…

I don’t doubt those kinds of experiences. But I guess the thing that gets me about Glover is that he was still putting out self-pitying-blerd, Asian-fetishizing music as recently as 2012 when he was already a 28-year-old sitcom actor living in LA and NYC.

That’s a hallmark of Gandini, and was on the original Countach.

I believe the landscape really shifted in the mid 2000s and suddenly it felt like black nerds were not only able to firmly claim black while claiming weird/nerd but they were also finding their counterparts and dating.

If you’re light skinded

Because most of us feel like this;

I read elsewhere it may be in honor of Fela Kuti. That makes sense.

I dunno. I personally thought the music video was intentionally being a swipe at not only Kanye, but the tendency for successful black people to ignore, deny, or outright blame violence perpetuated against black people on black people. They just keep shucking and jiving along with a smile on their face.

Shirtless = slave.

I’m assuming that the top button is actually missing because he did try to contain the beast, and it fought back.

Even giving the cop the benefit of the doubt - why’s the gun out? How hard would it be to just say, “Police officer. Saw you put that in your pocket. (to cashier) did he pay for this? ... Yes? Ok, my bad” That same conversation without the gun and attitude may have been understandable since dude came in midway through…

Here, I fixed it.

Dick and balls is all I see. Nice job Miami

I follow the @barbiestyle Insta and I really like this picture when I saw it because the hair seemed really fresh and interesting. In fact, the Insta offers plenty of great natural hair inspo on a regular basis:

This is good Jalop.

Shut up! You’re the racist!

K, so, if black people are naturally inferior and are gonna fuck it up no matter what they do, then why put in any effort to create obstacles or outright sabotage them? If you don’t consider someone to be your competition then why do you feel the need to hinder their progress?

The solution to make racism go away is for black folk to just stop recognizing that we are black.

Nope, haven’t, and will take this advice and not start now. In general I’ve found I enjoy entertainers’ creative work better when I don’t know who they are or what they’re about as actual people.

How about we start a gofundme and sit him in a high-school classroom? He’s got some basic catching-up to do first.
