“It’s funny how perfectly acceptable things become problems when Black people do them. Also funny, is how quickly people go from zero to hostile when it comes to Black people.”

Okay, where does it say she actually tried to run him off the road instead of following him to express her opinion when he stopped his car because he wouldn’t engage with her on campus?

You keep insisting that these statues are a learning opportunity, that they “remind us of what we did” and that’s why they should remain. But they don’t remind us, in practice—you’re supplying the imagined thoughtfulness and intellectual curiosity that you say would make the statues worthwhile. Inventing it where it…

So, if scorn isn’t “right” how should black people feel about and respond to those who think we should be lauding and honoring these great heroes? Because we’re here too.

Have you ever been called a nigger and threatened? Have you ever been in a restaurant with a white woman and been served by someone with a confederate tattoo? Do you know what it feels like when that happens? Do you know the humiliation, the anxiety, the anger and the sadness that causes? The violence and the murders…

history is not erased. Books still exist and oral history still abounds. These are celebrations of terrorism and should not only be removed but smashed to pieces and burned. These statues, the street names, the names of elementary and high schools, the mascots, and the flags are nothing but White Hate’s attempt at…

Yes, it’s very important for us as Americans to commemorate the treason against the United States in order to keep human beings as slaves. Because there are Nazi statues all over Germany oh wait

Lol. He is a stud. To later be played in the movies by Matt Damon.

True, but c’mon. Tiki Torches? What are they gonna do, lead everyone around in a Cintronella parade? This asshat is the pied piper of mosquito repellant.

One other thing that I want to mention is articles like this are important. We need to discuss abuse, we need to bring it out of the shadows. My mother was abused by my father, my grandmother was abused by my grandfather, I was abused. Perhaps if these women in my life talked about what they experienced, I wouldn’t…

“While his actions and his treatment of me are reprehensible, I was complicit as well. I allowed him to steal my power. I believed in love and I believed him. I thought my love was enough to change him. I am constantly meeting black women who have lived or are living what I experienced. And they stayed longer than…

I’m not amused. I’m with Crowbar on this one. This shit is not cute. I don’t see the need to broadcast every goddamn milestone of one’s life online nor do I think it’s cute for people to come up with more and more elaborate ways of doing something as simple as announcing a pregnancy, something that could have been…

I’m sorry to be Debbie Downer but WHO thought this was a good idea? I know it was staged but how spectacularly tone deaf in light of black people dying from overzealous police?

This shit isn’t cute. It’s not as bad as the “prom-posal” that involved arresting a black teen at school but it’s still fucked. Your body and subconscious don’t get to just laugh it off when you think you might die or be locked in a cage but it turns out to be a BIG SURPRISE! Can we just.... maybe.... take the…

The police officer’s parents are already in the media trying to spin him as a “good father” and a “family man”, never mind that he’s divorced and has two children born within 12 days of each other by two different women.

This is a weird collection of celebrities

So a perfect representation of “fuck you, gots mine.”

“Ew, lepers.”

Look at that Jesus-y bitch wearing her cross as if she is not acting in direct contravention of Jesus’s teachings.
