IMO Bey showing up took away from Kaep’s moment. The majority of the convo since has been more about what Bey wore, Bey’s legs, Bey’s a goddess, etc. than why Kaep got the award in the first place.

I’m truly baffled at why Beyonce was there.* I think it should have been Bill Russell, Jim Brown, Kareem Abdul-Jabar, John Carlos & Tommie Smith or another athlete who is known for taking a stand/activism/being politically outspoken.
There is no logic to West’s slap at Coates. Either West hadn’t bothered to read the collection of writings or he simply wanted to slap at Coates the same as he has done for Dyson, Harris-Perry and Obama.
I’ve had to tell some friends of mine to back off.
Imagine putting your hair into its rattiest & ugliest ponytail, putting on your dirty stained sweats, and schlumping outside in your slippers to take a 2-block walk to drop off your dry-cleaning... and STILL hearing “Lookin hot mami!” or “Hey baby, wanna suck it?”
No problem. And I thank my mom for being a strong single mother and raising me not to be a creeper.
Repetition can get a yes, but that’s a coerced yes, and it’s fucked up. Women say yes because they just want the harassment to stop.
Ugh, one of my good friends is (according to her proclaimed schedule to me) set to break up with her BF tonight for this very thing. He absolutely has no tolerance for her when she exhibits any level of stress (and during their relationship, she got laid off and her dog died), let alone stress toward him.
That’s a thing I think a lot of us men need to deal with, getting out of looking at women objectively. Its even worse when your married to someone like that as in your case I’m sorry to hear. Clean, cook and have sex with me is the line of thinking a lot of women’s husbands have. And then when you speak up about how…
I’ve had to tell some friends of mine to back off. A lot of us really don’t understand either no means no or or just plain “damn bro back off shes not interested.” Some guys honestly think repetition will eventually get a yes or consent from women and it doesn’t work like that. sometimes theres almost this entitlement…
That is just the grossest thing. All I can offer you is sympathy - I managed to avoid the outright assault but I dealt with harassment like that for a very long time - a hipster brioche donut, and some nice hot chocolate. Because I can’t imagine you didn’t need to take a shower just writing this.
I thought we had the option of firing squads. That would be my prefered way to go if I ended up on death row. I’m not planning on it lol.
Donaldson handed his co-worker a McDonald’s bag containing a loaded .40 caliber Glock and allegedly told the co-worker that he wanted to leave the state.
Matt Lauer’s firing was about as expected as Donald Trump’s incompetence. Figuring out who sexually harasses women isn’t very difficult to predict. Lauer consistently gave Trump and O’Reilly a pass on their shitty behavior while grilling HRC about emails and telling her to keep her answers brief.
Bad joke?
I get what you are saying, though many in the comment section (likely all wypipo) would prefer to make it about something else, because centered.
My bad...it was our very own Michael Harriot who made this poetic observation...
Your profanity is vile and unnecessary, and suggests you lack true ideals and perhaps are insecure about your mixed race heritage. That aside, my perspective is mine, and I am sharing it; it does not mean you need to agree with it. But here is a beautiful summation of how many, many BLACK WOMEN FEEL (and that includes…
I’d rather you tell me that you don’t like me because of my skin than hide that sh-t.
