Chadwick and Black Panther mean so much to Black kids today, but let me tell you. When my then 70 y.o. father realized that his grandson's favorite superhero was Black, something in that man healed. And he can't have been the only one of his generation to experience that.

I am able to indulge in entertainment because I realize that I need to maintain myself mentally to continue to do the work. You need to put the oxygen mask on yourself before attending to others.

He literally proposed while they were roasting chicken. He probably smelled all them seasonings and decided to lock it down expeditiously.

There are parents who are truly struggling with child care and virtual schooling, but this ain't that crowd. I wish there were a way to help the former, but this group keeps getting in the way.

Light romantic drama isn't the genre for everybody, but Black people have the right to have AND portray gentler sides and sweeter stories.
Misogynoir means that Black women must negotiate femininity and power differently. We're already seen as "less" feminine than most other women, so especially when entering a "man's" professional sphere, the calculations get wild. She was BRILLIANT.
Shirley Chisholm often wore skirts instead of pants—IMO a message that women could occupy positions of authority w/o dialing back fem/softness in dress

That's been this country's move since day one. They really don't care how many white people they kill on the way to killing Black people.

I’ll never forget when people were presented with the choice between brunch and the lives of their neighbors, they acted like brunch was the only antidote to a poison they just swallowed.

As I'd be accepting my winnings anonymously, once I got all the arrangements for the money in place, I'd use up PTO and pretend to take a job elsewhere. They'd never connect me with the jackpot and I would leave no crumbs.

I'm not even sure if you're allowed to be a Black grandmother if you haven't taken this handwriting course. It's this, pie crusts, and not letting people run in and out of your house.

That's probably because he respects it as a music, rather than treating it like some hypersexualized PR stunt. I knew somebody would make this pairing work, but the fact that it's her father... lmaoooo

I pray that foster "mother" loses her license to be a foster parent before the week is out. Her asking grown women to assault a child under her care should follow her for the rest of her life.

If we really want to get into it, folks are more comfortable with a Black person getting shot by somebody than a Black person being kissed by anybody.

I think I understand the non-sense of this. It goes "something something I'm really the oppressed one, Jewish people speak Hebrew, right? And they have the star thing? Yeah, so let's put Hebrew on it to prove how oppressed I am."

story is not only one of the most horrific, violent, mysogonist police murder nightmares possible, it's maybe the most depraved framing I've ever seen in copaganda—starting with the headline omitting the woman the cop killed!

She was also an investigator into the use of rape as a racial terror tactic. Some books will call her a “secretary” and she had some admin duties, but that’s not why she was there.
There were slave revolts in New York, and there are extant slave cabins in Massachusetts. The North likes to pretend that slavery couldn’t stand a hard frost.

There is no way that this was less work or expense than using a peeler, boiling skin-on potatoes and peeling after, or just eating skin-on potatoes. This video is a LIE from the deepest pit of hell.

Funny how that doesn’t work with other potential causes of death. “Your Honor, he died with my knife in his chest, but remember, he was diabetic.”

For all the Columbusing they do, non-Black people have yet to process that Black folk have distinct cultures and therefore different ways of framing life experiences.
@SeekCindy
I'm sorry that the Black women *you* know aren't open to love or don't know how to love. But to suggest that's a problem of Black women generally is internalized anti-Blackness, and you need to work that out instead of trying to spread it on Twitter.

The fact that you can only imagine violence or passive aggression as parenting methods is a sign of something that's not great.

You offered her a gift. She turned it down. Regifting is perfectly acceptable in this circumstance, preferably to someone who gives you gifts you like.

And I'll remind people that the ashes and ring were in her sock drawer. Not on a mantelpiece or a table that one might sweep past unthinkingly. He had to search.
What’s extra wild about this is if you follow Imani, she is a Brie girl. This would have been the time for folks to also share the best vegan Bries (I haven’t tried any) and give small businesses a boost. But that would have been a win for everybody, and yt vegans won’t have that
White vegans use the exact same tactics that white evangelicals use to determine the value of the life of others and enact racism with the cover of superiority.

Get all of this documented, as if you think they're going to stop being creepy & controlling after the kid is born, think again. Go to your parents. Tell birthing center/hospital staff that your SBTX/in-laws are barred from visiting. File for divorce & sole custody of Gale Smith.
I see photos of cops kneeling with protesters. I am confused. If you're a cop and you're not reporting your co-workers, testifying against them, and giving victims the info they need to sue, all you're doing is the worst kind of yoga. Go downward facing douchebag someplace else.

@Erinkyan
There were almost certainly signs before this, but abusive partners also know to wait until they've isolated or otherwise trapped their victims. So it's possible that the signs before this were things that people tend to brush off-- mild jealously, odd remarks, etc.

In the Jesus fandom, some fans consider the whole series canon, but some reject the ones they say were written by a ghostwriter. Everybody has fanon, but some white US fans insist theirs is canon & don’t even read the original series.

That t-shirt was a lie turducken, so there's a lot of "but even if that were right, these other things aren't" happening.
His murderers claim that voguing somehow went against Islam in such a way that they had to kill him. I have the Qur’an in the original and translated. Not one word about voguing, but I do note a few words about killing people.
O'Shae Sibley, the Brooklyn dancer killed after he was reportedly attacked by men who said his voguing offended their faith, is being remembered as an advocate for social justice
@Karnythia
This is also a failure of history instruction. Women don’t fight for economic parity just to make the numbers look right. Women were forced into *terrible* situations before, and we need to make that plain.

@YousefMunayyer
Even if Jewish people owned a substantial number of slave ships & auction houses, (untrue, but here we are) there had to be a market bigger than 1% to organize an entire society around it. White folks who didn't hold slaves still rented, borrowed, & invested in slave labor.

@keatingssixth
I’ll keep saying it until people believe it: this “protection” men claim to offer is just them reserving the woman they want for themselves. What they offer is a folding chair in a parking space, not protection from harm.
