Nothing screams “look I got a paper cut” like...

Gotta add: Flesh-colored band-aids.

I have West Indian parents they did not let me play with my education.  I had to do the work.  I really never gave them trouble to go to school, my younger siblings though.  My mother had to put her foot down for my younger sister.

I don’t care for that one because it kind of minimizes her black friend’s contributions to him saying yes. But one of them in particular not only finally convinced Schultz, Kenneth Kelly, but it was also his idea to have Franklin be a background character. Kotaku does a better job handling how the letters unfolded, inc…

If I were Deray, I’d be swapping out that janky blue vest for some camouflage. Stay checking  your six, bruh. 

Is it me or does it seem like Folks are trying to snuff out the deliberately and methodically killing the leaders of this movement???!!!

These deaths are suspicious as fuck. But we got the same PD these guys were protesting ruling their deaths suicide. Sure, tell me another one.

That can be one of the problems with looking at things through our current sensibilities. At the time, having a black kid in a comic or on a tv special was a big deal and a very positive, if not daring move. Was animated Franklin stereotypical in a lot of ways? Yes. Because the people behind the animation - especially…

Really dope. I think a teacher told Charles how important it was for there to be a black character on peanuts for black children. Mind you, in the strip he was the smartest in the crew and he wasn’t jucking and jiving. Disclosure, i used to read the fuck out of Peanuts comics in elementary school. The book volume…

see that’s what I think folks miss. My mom (a baby boomer) said he was the first black kid to be in a comic.

Lucy doesn’t see race. She just calls the cops on black people minding their own business because she got a ‘bad feeling’ about them.

The Daily Show did a bit on Franklin a while ago. They pointed out that he was far more part of the group in the comics than he was on the magical moving picture machine.  There he was sitting on the other side of the table, break dancing, giving five instead of shaking hands. All the racial stereotype stuff they…

Because now I can’t unsee this. You must share my pain.

Actually, when Laaila was still a toddler, she went to Russia with Candace, where she was cared for in part by Parker’s mother. Still, you’re on the money — so to speak — about how much Parker earns in Europe, and like Diana Taurasi, the player you referred to that was paid extra to sit out a WNBA season, Parker has…

I’m scared to death to as much as lift my phone up to my face out in public, afraid that some asshole is going to mistake my phone for a gun and wind up getting my black ass shot.

Not a lawyer. I think the term is “gross negligence”. The contract doesn’t protect the shop because their action of the employee (illegal u-turn) is clearly “grossly negligent”.

Usher is the better entertainer, yeah but those first two Benet albums were top shelf, that’s all I’m sayin’!

This was my thought. Why didn't anyone step and say something? I get that the big boss is scary and all, but come the fuck on. I'd rather lose my job than see it go down like this.

seriously. she set up to get some work done in the coffee shop. she’s going to buy some coffee and/or donuts at some point.
