I was at a teacher’s institute this week as well (I’m not a teacher though, it was a weird experience), and there wasn’t a SINGLE person of color. Not a damn one. And considering a lot of the conversation was around how to teach issues likes slavery and society in the 18th century, the fact that the only person of…

The ranch dressing on the side somehow helps with the concept of this picture.

I went to training this week to explain the math common core standards. It was full of teachers and I was one of only three people of color there. The other two women were in my carpool. There is something wrong with that. Students need to see people like them as teachers.

Obviously she’s a vampire. Duh.

The overwhelming whiteness is like “WHOA!”

Hey, speaking of weirdo photos ... Where is his daughter in the mirror??? And who is the boy who appears in the mirror but not the photo???? Demons? Crazy camera photos? Proof of extraterrestrial life? It’s hard to say.

But why must BLM voice every issue and make sure to note their stance on this one, specifically? Because MIA cares about it? Because it involves other black/brown people? I get that she is saying American foreign policy is bullshit, but what the hell does that have to do with BLM? Which is also critical of American…

She’s addressing American privilege and foreign policy by throwing BLM under the bus. That’s why people are pissed at her. She didn’t need to mention BLM to make a point about how Americans don’t care about foreign policy but she chose to basically call out the BLM movement as though they are personally responsible…

BLM is primarily an American movement born out of problems within the United States and that looks, primarily, to address the problems within the United States. The coverage it gets, primarily, is from American news organizations.

BLM movement forget the American foreign policy and foreign influences

She has the I’m the special token syndrome. She probably was a special brown snowflake in all her all-white art school so she figured why not stick to that colonial schtick. She probably thought she was being radical when she went on that whole diatribe. My question was: WTF would a black woman from Houston know about…

She has a voice, she used it, and was given reasons why their was a disconnect on what she said vs. reality, and she continues to push her narrative that BLM should effectively be ALM. Yeah, drop her.

I’m pretty done with her over all of this. She comes off as super disconnected and self serving. If you were in dialogue with people around you and with people supporting BLM you’d come to get it, but clearly she’s dug her heels in and only wants to concern herself with things that specifically concern her own…

You’re exactly right. I’m Hispanic and I have never thought, well what about brown lives. Because I know that the issues affecting black people inherently are the same issues affecting all people of color. And I know that I’m seen as brown. Period. So calling for an acknowledgment of black lives also requires and…

That’s because all other groups expect black (American) people to do the hard lifting for them. As soon as the term black lives matter came up, I've heard other communities of colour complaining that it's not inclusive. Well sweet thing, when was the last time the Chinese community stood up for the black community?…

It's so horrifying that we expect BLM, a movement started in part to voice the lack of social and political power, to shoulder the burden of all of the world's ills. I get her point and she has issues that concern her perhaps more than BLM does, but she mistakenly thinks there can only be one priority. Or one issue.…

What a horrible person. I hope that the woman whose picture was taken is doing okay. :( Such a foul fucking human, man.

It’s particularly poignant that this procession took them right through the old Rondo neighborhood. It was Minnesota’s largest and wealthiest African American community until it was demolished for the construction of I-94. Just another reminder of the structural racism that helped killed Philando Castile.
