Corrective lenses since a baby? Relevant:

It’s about fucking time we paid more attention.

You’re going to get a lot of like’s for this off the cuff comment and I can see stuff down thread that says things like “horrible people living in every state of this country” but as a black person who went to Uni next to a sundown town (yes they exist even now in the aughts) some places *are* more racist than others.

Back in 2001 I worked at Bath and Body Works at Lenox Mall in Atlanta, GA when Whitney and Bobby came in. Whitney bought over $600 of candles and lotions. Bobby picked out one thing - a fishbowl full of small orange goldfish shaped glycerine soaps. He wanted every single one we had for his daughter. I can’t stop

rip bobbi kristina. you’re in heaven with momma now.

When my cousin from California was taking a class 45 minutes away from us two summers ago, we would pick him up on the weekends and he’d hang out with us. Driving him back, we had to go through farm country. One time, we were stopped. I’m white, my cousin is half-Moroccan, and clearly those genes were the dominant

Here’s them on the second date.

Finally! A candidate who believes in protecting our civil liberties from government overreach. He’s been so vocal and visible in his opposition to the militarization of police and the use of excessive force on black bodies. He’s been so active in opposing state-level legislation aimed at limiting women’s access to a

I want to thank you for your empathy. I did not know her. While I am grateful for the technology that allows for cellphone and dashcam video to bring atrocities into the light, this has been a very, very hard year for the black community and for the community of human allies that care for us and our struggle. I think

Interesting. I agree with credit card debt. But student debt to me, is not necessarily ok, depending on what you went into debt for. If you took out $200k in student loans for a degree that you knew was going to have a low income-earning capacity, then I’m not sure that it is ok. It seems kind of foolish, actually.

I think it’s a suicide mostly because a coverup seems outlandish and because I can imagine her mindset—humiliated, scared, and having likely lost the job I’d moved to a new place for. Especially if she had never been in prison, and doubly because it was a bullshit arrest. Also because of other women in the tank saying

She had one! One DUI and so the fuck what!

You know sometimes a cigarette is not a reason to attempt to yank someone out of her car and threaten her with a taser over a routine traffic stop. Maybe if the police hadn’t done that, she wouldn’t have been in prison? They had no reason to arrest and detain her for three days. There was no reason for her to be in

I feel terrible for Sandra Bland’s family. I don’t know if her death was a suicide or not. What I do know is that she never should have been arrested, but once she was arrested she should have been evaluated by a doctor or nurse since she was slammed on the ground possibly causing a concussion and also she said she

I stand with them whether they are right or wrong, because regardless of whether the police killed Sandra or she committed suicide they. Are. Culpable.

I don’t give a fuck if she ate babies as a hobby, the police are not supposed to treat a citizen like that. You’re casting aspersions on a dead woman so that you don’t have to think of her as an innocent person, which she most definitely was, so that you don’t have to consider the fact that this can happen to anyone

Back to my old comment elsewhere. I don’t really care whether or not it was a suicide, she didn’t belong in jail, basically in solitary (with wakeup calls every hour since they couldn’t follow their own rules on checking in on her) in the first place. So reserving judgement into the actual cause of her death doesn’t

It’s not out of bounds for that this could be a suicide. Like I said on an earlier article, I could see how the despair of being in that situation could lead someone to suicide. Being treated like crap and isolated in a jail cell while being away from family and thinking that one might have lost their new job is

I stand with the family.
