Yes! I got an afrofuturism vibe from this video.

Signed in after many moons just to cosign your comment SheeshTheseNames. Definitely not attacking you this post, responding to you and the original poster. But I agree with you.

Black guy here. The assertion that this article makes, that there are not enough black men in jail, is absolute garbage. The jails and prisons are filled with black men who are there due to domestic violence or rape convictions. The ridiculous notion that black women are systematically keeping black males out of jail…

LMAO. White people will never forget about that one time a black guy was able to buy competent legal representation and invoke reasonable doubt in a case that exposed the LAPD as infiltrated by race soldiers.

Black guy here.

Black guy here. I read this piece and some of the comments with amusement. The author mentions racism in the USA but somehow, mysteriously, refuses to say WHO is committing the racism by not dating black women. Why not call out white men directly? Therein lies your problem. Statistically, white men as a group do not…

What a goofy negro bed wench. BET is owned by Viacom, which is a white owned, white run, white controlled company. Black people are a commodity in the entertainment industry, bought and sold. White people have been nominated and won BET awards. What the hell is that sock puppet talking about?

Black guy here. I always found these appeals to white people for a seat at their cool fashion table to be rather undignified. Is it really that hard for black people to start their own online magazines featuring black beauty?
Are black women’s self-esteem really that dependent on white men’s acceptance? I’ve been…

Is Ava Duvernay the new Lupita Nyong’o? White liberals seem to have a fetish for her. It is weird how they go overboard in their praise of any basic thing she does. Is Ms. Duvernay the new negro that helps white people prove they are not racist?! Like listening to Jay-Z or being a David Chappelle fan?

Black guy here. I really wish black people would get out of the business of begging white media executives for representation. It is undignified.
If you want better representation, then create your own. The barrier to entry is high but nowhere near as high as it was ten years ago. People may look at Tyler Perry with…

Reading some of these comments, I am laughing at these white people. So transparent.

ekirsten Because I refuse to pull this nonsense out of the grays.
“If you want people not like you to think of you as a thinking individual instead of relying on stereotypes, maybe you could do the same?”

That is 100% nonsensical garbage. Are you really trying to pull an alternate version of respectability politics?…

You said:
Regarding Roethlisberger and Patrick Kane,
a lot of people will brand them as rapists forever
(and on the flip side, a lot will defend them forever)
but as they were not convicted of any crimes, what else do you want sports leagues to do?
Blacklist them forever for an accusation?

1. If you are…

SteveInWI I am assuming you are a white man. As such, your opinion means less than contaminated dirt to me. If you think racism is a problem, get away from the keyboard and challenge it where you see it in real life. Confront your family, your peers and your coworkers when they are using racist power structures..

The Internet really is something. Were it not for these videos being uploaded to social media, white people, even your liberal white friends who listen to Jay-Z and love David Chappelle, would still act like slavery, Jim Crow and the War on Drugs a.k.a. war on blacks, never happened.

Black people have no friends. The…

Black people have been silenced systematically for so long that some among us are absolutely thirsty to hear that a white person wants our thoughts on race. It really is a conditioning, pavlovian in its effectiveness. We believe that this garbage situation will get better because FINALLY a white person will listen.

Black guy here. This is why I have nothing but contempt for white liberals and white feminists. This black guy here, Chris Brown, went through the court system and did his time. But white people want to keep punishing him anyway. Same with Mike Vick. He went through the court system, paid the cost society told him to…

Between this event of a black athlete yelling at the media and the strike by the University of Missouri players, you white progressives have a minislave rebellion on your hands. Oh boy! You should go hand them some trinkets or a butter biscuit so they think things are good.

Same to you as well. I have worked in big white academic and corporate institutions. One thing I notice is that they will come for the black males on Monday morning and then go after the black women on Friday afternoon. I don’t trust any of them. We(black women and black men) don’t have to agree on everything, but we…

We are in this as a group. The ONLY intersectionality is between black men and black women. When white racists want to punish us, they punish us as a group. My closest relatives are black women. My best friend is a black woman. Yeah, I have black male friends and I support my black sisters morally and materially. I…
