I’m sure most black people already know this, but I’m gonna say it out loud just for the record:

I believe that deep deep down in the soul of every white person is a burning jealousy over black hair. It can be anything and it is everything but boring.

Considering how many national treasures the British Museum stole during the 19th and 20th centuries, it’s just one small step toward karmic restitution for them to have one of their national treasures nicked by someone else.

If you want to be equal parts entertained and infuriated, check out his Police Raids episode. Dude does his homework.

And credit where it’s due - it’s not just him, but his whole team. The writers and researchers for that show are top notch. It’s clear they’ve hired a talented, diverse group that can play to many strengths.

I did a double take when I saw this in my recommends this morning but I made sure it was available when I came back from my morning walk and was so glad I did. Gold!

“And if your response to this is ‘Hey not all white people!’ maybe think about why that’s your first response.”

Yes there are some people who are truly open minded enough to discuss things that they haven’t experienced personally with sensitivity, understanding and without leaving their lane. No one’s perfect and I’m sure some errors happen along the way (no one gets good at anything without some failure) but I definitely…

John Oliver is a national treasure.  Yes, we have stolen him from the UK and he is ours.

I’m registered as a non-partisan for so many reasons, many of them in your above comment.

I’d have hit him. Full-on, not making apologies. You say that to my face, I’m cracking your jaw.

I’d love to meet this person, and share my own term of endearment that is commonly referred to as cut brake lines.

I hope you punched the shit out of that stupid trash’s face, but I know you know better than to do something most of society could easily agree was the right thing to do.

Meanwhile, a Texas Dem resigned for calling Tim Scott and oreo.  smmfh. 

I was called Buckwheat, at work, by a blonde white woman who said it was a term of endearment too.

Trump made them feel bold and secure with it, January 6th let them know that they could assault law enforcement and be rewarded for it and now since Derek Chuavin they feel they have nothing to lose. With all the new open carry laws they are enacting they are preparing to exterminate any black and brown person they…

Outchere looking to catch these hands.

Shit hole countries, have shit hole states, that have shit hole officials of the shit hole party.
