Yeah this new iteration of The Root is super sycophantic towards wealth and fame. I remember recently seeing an article about that show Atlanta basically saying, “we’ve never heard of Black people not liking Childish Gambino or the show Atlanta or Donald Glover in general!!!!” Like what?! They’re shameless dick riders…

Get a load of this dipshit

I can dislike both Kanye and Pete in the same sentence. I can dislike Kanye even more in the next sentence. Now, I never understood the zeitgeist’s fascination with Davidson and his alleged BDE, but I never perceived him as anything other than a lazy attempt to create another white rapper for us to roll our eyes at.…

This article is one of the reasons I don’t come here as much.  I’ve been on lately because I am sick and at home. I see I haven’t missed much.  This is a fucked up article. 

Look man, I get it. You grew up poor and couldn’t afford the help you needed, and now you resent the people who have access to the resources they need to get mental help. I can sympathize.

The tone of this whole article is a big nope. Shame on you.

Go ask your mom.  Your lack of human decency is probably her fault anyway.

Be better than shitting on someone’s health.

Is McDuffie your finsta, Mrs. Owens?

You should find a new hobby. You’re really bad at trolling.

I don’t like Pete Davidson. I like that headline even less.

I don’t understand why we are headlining this with “Poor Lil’ Pete Davidson.” Pete was harassed for the entirety of the relationship by that POS Kanye, who also had his cult do the same. Putting that Poor Lil in front of it trivializes the online harassment. You would not put a “Poor Lil” in front of any other person…

I remember someone getting salty at me when I casually mentioned telling my nephew that he can’t get away with the shit his white classmates do. (While having to go to his school with said staff literally threatening to call the cops on him if he walked out of school, the same behavior that they did not make such a…

After hundreds of years of on going systemic racism, abuse and murder by white people, Your ass get triggered by “...those people”??

Right, Black parents really need to tell their boys they will be picked out of a crowd of yt people every single time. They’ll part the red sea, leave you standing there alone, and will gladly let you take the fall for their misbehavior.

She was an producer of the tv series. She’s not some hapless dupe. That time she spent on her knees is her bankroll. 

That will probably always be my favorite song of his, partially because I love Chaka. And while I loathe Kanye, if you agree to license a song to be sampled, I think what they do with it is fair game unless you stipulate an approval. If he misrepresented what he was going to do with it then that is a problem but it…

I never advocated for them turning it into a museum or making it illegal for them to rent it. Part of what I am saying is that if they want to sell a product or make a profit in a America others have the free speech to judge it and talk about it. And if that negatively impacts the business well...that is just…

Dr. Stacey Patton pointed out that it never gets talked about how 8 other black children were pulled from the Tallahatchie before they found Emmett’s body. A movie feels hollow.

So, it seems that Amira’s position is that Black men can only think with their dicks. And she is using the Kardashian women as an example to highlight this.
