I love her and her Compton sister so much! For just being Black Excellence and excelling in the face of just so much adversity. People don’t know what it is to traverse this world as a dark-skinned black woman unashamed of her body and intelligent to boot. The fog of disbelief, discontent and bewilderment wherever you…

Don’t know much about this ethnicity but after George Zimmerman, I’ve heard a bit. Do Cubans really think they won’t be in concentration camp lines right behind the Mexicans? The Nazis didn’t make any such distinctions when it came to the Aryan-looking people in Denmark, Netherlands, Norway, etc.

It’s newsworthy because Becky is a THIEF who has probably NEVER been stopped and frisked and would not have been asked to produce a receipt if the owner had chased her down with the police in tow. That she was day drunk is an valid excuse and not a moral failure (not like those thugs with blunts!). The story is AMERICA…

I just can’t when it comes to PETA or the trend of giving animals an equal or greater priority or level of empathy than humans. Over the past 20 years when humans still justify treating ‘different’ humans with utter contempt and abuse. People refer to themselves as Pet Parents and GrandParents while refusing welfare/s…

Tiger’s publicist didn’t have to work too hard on the coward’s stance of “Respect the Title/Office”. Never publicly Question/Challenge official decisions, Nor publicly insult a person. But my decency, civility, decorum and personal ethics depend on the expectation of reciprocity. So, I wouldn’t yell “You lie!” to…

I, on the other hand, have made it a personal crusade to immediately admonish people that I don’t know to call me Miss Last Name: Customer Service, Phone callers, gas station workers, everyone; after Obama’s election, it seems like a concerted effort NOT to give traditional respect to positions/titles. Two years ago,…

Ole Slewfoot is a nickname for Satan. My knowledge of it comes from the Church of God In Christ & Pentecostal traditions but it’s also probably from Africa’s tribal traditions of the Trickster demon who was evil and enticed people to do the evil that their personalities tended toward. Slewfoot was also used an insult…

You are not wrong in feeling the lack of protection and lack of respect from Black men who are not related to you. There are no other ethnicities of men I’ve EVER heard of that make up words like THOT, go into the studio and sing songs, step in front of cameras and denigrate, then use every other platform to curse and…

While I understand there’s value in sharing the true stories, my soul is beaten down enough with tales of woe when there are also tales of triumph out there. Let’s hear the strategies some petite woman used in a secluded situation with some villain where she used her wits, her voice, her car keys or her fists and…

Weaponize! I fear that the legacy of slavery is the indwelling timidity toward defending ourselves when our lives and souls depend upon it. Rape is a murder of the spirit and we should no more tolerate threats of it than we would a teacher threatening to eat our children (if they had a history of doing so and…

No, no Michael wisely did not give TinyWhiteGirl the sympathy sh wanted with this diverting anecdotal “I’ve bled too” shtick! Every redheaded, bucktoothed, short or ugly person got teased in school. But her dad got a good job when he immigrated didn’t he? Children didn’t get stolen & sent to re-education schools to…

Why, oh why would an N-word tape hold any greater significance, import or impact with a major political party or base that was okay with Grab 'Em By The Pussy' tapes or 'I Could Shoot Someone on 5th Ave' tapes?

Someone once complemented me on my clarity of thought in writing. It was so sincerely spoken and such an insightful compliment that I still cherish it. My own arguments against racism are good, maybe even very good but Michael's so graceful, succinct and elegant they make me wanna holla! The way they coalesce some of…

I assumed this was standard practice for every police agency as soon as Black Lives Matter was concieved. Infiltration for those agencies with at least one Black officer (who would never get promoted otherwise). And internet-database collection for those agencies without any tokens (staffed by the neckbearded…

Can we be real about this situation, people who frequent Chinese restaurants, Korean nail salons and Asian beauty supply stores KNOW: They will NEVER give refunds, returns or price adjustments! They will escalate any situation where in you ask for one by rudely demanding you pay, then leave and threaten with the…

Yaaaaasssss! Marginalized people stick up for what's right, especially in the face of blatant racism! Then marginalized people come together and support each other too. Because we all know, when they come for them, they're coming for us next! P.S. This is a GoFundMe we all can get behind!

ETA: I can tolerate her sometimes misguided rantings but I.WILL.NEVER.FORGIVE. RZA for allowing a white man (Russell Crowe) to spit on her in his presence and not doing anything substantive about it. Then to double-down by dissing HER publicly aftward?! Shaolin Warrior my ass, that was some slave cowering at the…

I don’t know any of Azalea’s songs and only became aware of her from some controversial things she’s said on Twitter that got written about. But even bitter, envious and slightly crazy people can ineloquently make the point that the Emperor is naked. Bred & Raised like veal with even less world contact to be a blank…

Who could EVER forget that man and the horrific torture NYPD enacted on him?! Onlh the sickest, most depraved person could even THINK of anally-raping a man with a plunger and only the most indifferent to human suffering could stand and watch or help restrain the victim. That those NYPD cops could go to lunch, fill…

Except how so many of our illiterate, dirt poor Irish brothers went to America to make their fortune specifically because the U.S. system promised them social mobility they NEVER could dream of in their homogenous Homeland thru the specific exploitation of free labor from slaves (and guarantee of social superiority…
