Imagine Micah telling her something to the effect of “get out of my way you dumb cunt!” I can guarantee you she would have a completely different reaction to using “just words”.

White dude uses slur, rightfully gets dragged and white authority figure shows up and chastises/punishes black student defending himself. This is a microcosm for how modern day racism manifests itself. 

That teacher really grinds my gears. Telling only the black student to get to the office, because the white kid only “used words.” Then telling the black student “don’t touch me” while simultaneously getting in his face and blocking his path.

Wypipo are amazing aren’t they? They’ll easily brush off when PoC are called racial slurs but curl up and cry in their wypipo shells when someone calls them a racist.

This is typical though isn’t it? A school doesn’t do a damn thing about someone being bullied and then when the person being abused decides to stand up for themselves the administration complains that the student should have come to them. Really? Because when Micah tells the teacher that the bastard was using racial…

Really? Because it looks like the white kid got away with harassing a classmate and wasn’t punished for that. Seems like a win to me; a win for white supremacy that is.

I clicked for the classic Dukie head-snap and didn’t leave disappointed.

J.J Watt: “Wait you can do that?”

To require someone to be patriotic is fundamentally un-American. The freedom to publicly state, I am ashamed of my country is the most American thing there is, from the very start of this nation. This is the same mistake made 50 years ago punishing the American act of protest, to make America better.

Freedom is being forced to perform nationalistic rituals others demand of you.

Because you feel like by using your platform to say something, maybe you can help affect change? Do you like every single thing about your job? If not, why don’t you quit?

Nothing says freedom like forced allegiance.

Because its a job

Players can represent their country only, apparently, if they’re willing to represent the version of the country in which U.S. Soccer is most interested in selling.

They will always let you down if it’s in their best interests.

Well this is gonna get good because players are definitely going to kneel their first chance.

Get that bullshit out of here. Devotion to god? Really? Which one? The one obscured by white imperialism and put into a multi-edited version of the Bible? The one forced upon people of color in attempts to colonize? Go fuck yourself with this racist tripe. That good ol cleaning lady is a victim. The threat of white…

“Nice” racism is what my mom experienced when she married my Mexican dad. Her whole life my grandparents told my mom that everyone is equal and people should be not be judged by the color of their skin. Until she got engaged to my dad, then every racist stereotype of “lazy” Mexican came out under the guise of…

“...it also serves to create a false division amongst us”

Here it is: white women NEVER want to be blamed. Ever. I can’t count the number of times I have heard white people argue that one black person represents all black people. But somehow you are exempt from this methodology? The division is not false, it is super real, and your comment shows exactly why we still live…
