I love John Boyega.

I mean ... why is a Black man smiling big and being  openly happy automatically minstrelry? Those kinds of rigid, toxic-masculinity rules are harmful and outdated.

I am learning to make peace with the knowledge that Black men will simply never support Black women the way we have supported them. I have nothing left for people who jump at the chance to betray me at every turn and in every possible way. So for me, Black women come first and Black men are going to have to learn how

Uh, did Aziah Wells King get credited and paid? That was an issue at the beginning.

I wish the breakup I just need through and am still recovering from was even a little funny. But it's devastating and life-changing and I'm really struggling.

She grew up in a predominantly white Queens neighborhood that has almost zero Black people. I actually live in New York, so I know how segregated many neighborhoods can be. Nobody who grew up in that neighborhood sounds like her. It’s insulting.

She grew up in a predominantly white Queens neighborhood that has a Black population of about 5%. So what environment gave her that fake accent that she can obviously put down whenever she needs to?

And let’s not forget the type of white man she is with: He thought it was funny to dress up like a Nazi and make racist jokes when he was in his 20s. So his marrying a woman so light that many white people claim to not be able to tell she is Black doesn’t mean much.

Wtf Giuliana??? She looks ridiculous and is one shade from full-on blackface.

Oh man, I really want updates! I’ve been meaning to visit Panama with an eye to eventually living there if I end up liking it as much as I think I will.

Wow, this really hits home.

Yes, there is racism in those countries, but they have fewer non-whites and definitely fewer Black people. It’s the Black people that really get them riled up.

She doesn’t have her real body, her real face, or her real skin color at this point. Of course her hair isn’t real.

Because 99% of the covers are just Oprah by herself.

I can't imagine why he would do this.

Yeah, but Booker’s grammar is better.

Hey there. Was suddenly greyed everywhere but the Root and one other page--can't even remember which--months ago. So I don't comment much anymore. 

It sounds so, so perfect to me. I do not like sharing a bathroom with men, and the daily bullshit of living with a male partner ruins the good parts for me. Like, let’s just have our separate places where we can have whatever cleaning standards we want. I also hate how living with a man inevitably devolves into
