Ray Lewis, what a fucking coon.
I get what you are saying and generally agree, but I think if you call someone, anyone, a nigger you should expect the backlash. It isn’t just a simple little word. It means much more than its definition, a carries a significant weight.
I don’t think you excusing this white dude saying nigger by stating that black musicians say nigga and talk about sex makes any kind of fucking sense. There is a cultural context that you have no clue about. If a white dude calls me a nigger I whoop his ass, if one of my boys calls me nigga, I respond as if he just…
My company is having a picic next Saturday and the only other brotha in my building came to ask me if I was going. I immediately understood and replied, “If you go, I’ll go.” We have decided to take the weekend to think about it and come to a decision on Monday. Why would I want to see those people on a Saturday?
You just named a bunch of great actors that don’t get near the amount of work that they should. I kinda think that was the whole point. She didn’t have to, but she wanted a real chance at being successful in her chosen field.
No wonder my wife avoids eye contact with me. Or is it because I am black? Wait, her father is black because she is biracial, does that mean if she does look at me it’s due to evil influenced aggression? Shit has just gotten scary, SO I AM GOING TO CLAW MY EYES OUT TO BE SAFE - but was I kidding or am I angry now? I…
Every track on that album is dynamic. Blind Man is such a strange banger.
I’ve been digging the hell out it. I don’t think it’s as good as Lese Majesty, but it’s still super fresh.
Why are people sleep on Shabazz Palaces?
It’s heroes like you that get me through the damn day.
Right? I feel as though my dad prepared us to be fearless in the face of success. To be ourselves without feeling a need to fit in, not worrying about intimidating those that may be uncomfortable around us. I see the success of all seven of my brothers and it can all be linked to the talk, and the books my father…
I haven’t bought a physical book in ages, not even comics. Look at the bright side, you get exercise, walking to my car from the office is a vigorous workout for me.
I have read it. It’s...interesting to say the least. The experiment John Howard Griffin put himself through just doesn’t sit well with me. Especially in regards to cultural appropriation - I lived 8 weeks as a black man and so I understand their plight - as if my skin is the only thing that defines being black in…
My Father sat myself and my five brothers that had been born down one night, looked us right in the face and told us “you are not a nigger” before bombarding us with the experiences of his life, our grandparents lives and the great fear that people had for us. He even spoke of racism against our nubian great-great…
They both taste terrible, just drink Diet Dr. Pepper, which is light years ahead of any other diet soda in diet soda taste technology.
I know in my hood pronouncing Target that way is a joke that started when they started raising prices and acting like a fashion store instead of a place where most people buy toilet paper and potato chips. You know, as in tar-jhay (stuck up, fake accent included.)
You know what, Stevie is absolutely right. However, there is a time and a place to talk about the problems within the black community. My father has worked to steer black youth away from gangs and drugs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, he was afraid of someone hurting us if we wore too much red or blue. Yet…
My great grandma’s house had a very nice ghost. You see, they were dirt poor and lived in a corrugated tin shack on a vacant lot before the city donated the old undertaker’s house to them. I remember being a little boy visiting and when leaving to go home there would be two people waving goodbye. My Great Grand and…
This is true, my dad toured with Mr. Morris and would tell us stories of how he would ask for people’s traits so he could play pranks. Two examples, once he asks my father the color of the backing vocalist outfits and when he found out they were varying shades of brown and orange raged about how fall colors were not…
