You can’t do anything but praise the Black man who’s tasted fame and fortune THEN decides to back it up with some education! I really hope this is an expression of a curious, seeker’s mind and not some Reality Show premise. Imagine the things he can achieve with experience, access and knowledge of how things are

Never trust a lying liar when his mouth is moving!

I’m always struck in these moments at how often it is that women are accused of hating men—whether for pointing out bad behavior or asking that they do better or expressing any variety of basic human needs.”

Civility...since this prof wants to imply the Black student is uncivilized, it’s actually uncivilized to be barefoot in public! But there’s some deep, subconscious thing that makes mostly white people think they don’t stink, don’t have germs (or their germs are unharmful) and anyone who objects is just being anal-reten

I, for one, would rather say Thank you, Black woman, for stepping out of your safety zone, standing up for the sanctity of human life and a Black man, in particular. Sometimes we have to stand up for the principle of a thing, even though it might cost our life. People so love their time on this earth that they put up

Sooooo perfect!! So perfect an analogy that I can’t even...

Now, I might disagree that white people call the cops on other white people as much as they do Blacks but, having also worked for a city, they will call SOME department on their neighbors! If you go to any City Hall (or City Council meeting), there will always be tons of middle-aged white people checking the

I can’t understand why these folks don’t crack-a-lack?! Seriously, they seem to be behind some building, hubby could have just pulled away from the cameras, wifey walks back thru the trees and waits for this troglodyte. Pu-blaw!

Now the videographer needs to gather her friends and get on the agenda for this chick’s next school board meeting! Not just the public comment portion but get on the agenda to make them address the actions of the teacher and state when the investigation will conclude and what the possible outcomes could be. THEN the

Because what could some wolf-like moveable hangar from the backwoods of nowhere learn from a Harvard-educated woman with decades of actual work experience?

Bureaucracy and Self-Preservation is why police respond to stupid calls. I’m Black and from Detroit where you have to say someone has a gun to get police response. My 4th day as a 911 Operator in small, working class white suburb, a woman calls the 911 line screaming and sobbing incoherently. I kept asking questions

But 9 times out of ten, you’ll probably admit it’s somebody white curled up on upholstered furniture or appropriating up two or three chairs before everyone has a seat or taking their shoes off in public - not Black! (Unless it’s a bus or Subway train, then it’s Black dudes manspreading!).

This sounds like a research project for some HBCU’s political science class! Get on this crap BEFORE the next election cycle! I’m thinking some students will be registered to vote at their parent’s home’s state but there’s no reason some professor or student group couldnt have figured this out during the campaign.

I much prefer allusions to the pursuit, acquistion and aftermath of sex than today’s explicit, step-by-step, barked instructions! I know Jill’s music is not-so-subtle but I think this is a bit much. I thought she was classier than that. But then again, she did sing about taking it to the streets, putting on Vaseline

Wow, my condolences on this loss that touched you so personally. I just learned about what a progressive thinker Stan Lee was within the last few months! I read somewhere (New York mag, I think) about the Black guy who first drew Black Panther. This guy, by his own admission, was a very anti-social and problematic pers

This teacher’s tenure MOST DEF impacted what type of support/protection and punishment she would receive both internally and in the face of parent or public hearing ire! Ask any first year teacher.

This is just what happens when they be dippin’ and dappin’ and don’t know what’s happenin’! Y’all invited them to various picnics, half told them some inside scoops and they filtered it through their white terry cloth of understanding! With all the ‘others’ helming hiphop radio shows using Black vernacular, showing up

You are not alone. Somehow American schools are shit at explaining, EXPLAINING the concepts behind math, basic and all the levels upward! I don’t know if it was because I’m female or my math teachers were men who never explained, offered helps and weren’t word-oriented or some combo. Nevertheless, I’ve never been

I’d first thought I’d just take any kid I adopted to the library, museums and talk to them about the world. Then I came to see that you pretty much have to seek out some kind of home-school supplemental material and teach half a day! I’d want them to be able to compete with anyone from any school district and not feel

Men dating women & saying they’re not interested in sex really means: under-endowed, penile defect, only interested in very scary kinky sex, inexperienced and others previously rated bad, a premature ejaculator, impotent (not everyone can take Viagra) or gay trying to make hetero happen.
