Stop blaming mental illness for mass murderer's actions. He knew exactly what he was doing. He practiced; killed, then threw the gun and vest down and pretended to be innocent so police wouldn't kill him. He wanted to live even afer he killed. Sociopathic evil

So because Don Lemon happens to make a lot of money he cannot understand the Black experience? Money does not negate the Black experience. It may mute some of the effects but he can still be killed or stopped for existing while Black

I’m certain she married the man who asked her to marry him and who treated her nicely. Serena’s legacy is solidified by how well she and Venus Williams had the tennis world on lockdown for decades. Marriage has nothing to do with her legend. She is the GOAT!
@WhipClyburn
No. Reparations. Stimulus. Universal healthcare. Maternity and paternity leave. Pensions. COVID relief. We are not singing to heal what we did not break.
Anyone who is mad about Black Women marrying outside the race. I have one question, “But did you ask her to marry you?” Because most women marry a man who commits to them and wants to be married to them. Period.

Dolly sounds like the women in my family and all the other black women I knew growing up. Not included in the feminism but exemplifying and conquering the struggle that is patriarchy and mean girl exclusion by slapping down stereotypes with their cast iron skillets. Love it!!!!

Exactly. My point is that you chose your life. Everyone should have that option no matter their sex or gender. Not every woman can or wants to stay home and live off of a partner. Adults should make decisions about their lives.

What if a woman is a much better lawyer, doctor, teacher than housekeeper. Should her natural talents be suppressed? Should she live in misery for women’s work? Ugh

The other girl looked like she was fighting on multiple fronts so she went for broke. There are no fair fights. Unfortunately, Kaylee got the worst of it but we learned to keep our hands to ourselves in kindergarten. Don’t start none, won’t be none.
If this were a Christian nation we would have wiped out hunger. Healed the sick. Housed the homeless. Equaled the rights for every person. WWJD is a lifestyle. Not a slogan
What the CRT hysterics are essentially saying — literally without knowing what Critical Race Theory is — is that teachers must not ask whether we have arrived, via slavery and its aftermath, at an unequal society. And even if we have, it’s only fair that we freeze it there.
So Black & Muslim & POC are just labeled as bad and unAmerican for kneeling or expecting America to uphold the rights espoused in the Constitution but criminal white folks get individual scrutiny to see how bad of an insurrectionist they were? I call absolute BS

Nope a man who is not happy communicates his needs to his wife. An immature individual of any gender steps out ….start there
The Detroit police were told not to crack heads of the stop the votes crowd. Things remained peaceful. See how the police can use discretion with civilians and not harm protestors?

has taught me one thing. Women are always the target for blame no matter how docile or how out there. No matter what he does. Lesson. Live your life. Make your own moves. In silence. And then celebrate your victory.

Nope. It’s understanding strategy and working within the framework that has been set up to maintain the status quo. Learn some civics instead of slinging untrue statements or making stuff up

My Roomate sold plasma so we could get 25.00 for chicken backs eggs bread and ramen. I was underweight or I would have to. We didn’t drink. Didn’t do drugs. Often borrowed books to get through. And we worked jobs. The struggle was very real

When I first started as an attorney many judges (male) wouldn’t allow us to wear pants in court; would comment on our attire. Plus the freaking pantyhose always have a damned run in them. High heels are uncomfortable. Pantsuits are the truth! Why do people care what we wear?
In 1898, the federally appointed postmaster for Lake City, South Carolina, Frazier Baker, was lynched, along with his baby daughter, Julia. This was a lynching by bullets, which also hit his wife, Lavinia and four of their children. The crime which incensed the white mob that

The subtle Underground Railroad type of genius. Kendrick’s dancers start on their knee in boxes but stand suited up like the NOI. Snoop crip walk in colors. Dre still don’t like the police. Mary blinging and 50 hanging for the distraction. Shady kneeling was only the cherry
How folks attacked Bette Midler and any woman who expresses the sentiment that folks are trying to erase us and destroy any safe spaces that exist for women.

Dude. Many college students cannot get credit because they are students. They have no full time job and no collateral. Perhaps your understanding of credit is different than other people’s

Black women wore head wraps and wigs in ancient Egypt also. I’ve visited the museums and seen them. They wore them all over Africa. It might have been required by the Tignon laws but they didn’t understand that we make everything look good
The Declaration of Independence only applies to white men. It does not mention women or children or fetuses at all. Thus, women and children have no right to life. That has been illustrated over and over again in this life in America.
Kamala gave a speech on abortion where she quoted the Declaration of Independence but left out the part of the document that said Americans have a right to life.

We recognize that. But putting children in a position where they have to steal to help adults means that we need to do something different. Kids should not have to worry about the rent.

How do you have a 1000 year history of colonialism, a literal 100 year war, launch 2 World Wars, allow multiple genocides, & bomb a dozen nations since 9/11 alone—yet make this type of a statement.🤔

for very good reasons and then instead of trying to destroy the project she made a documentary to talk about some truths in regards to the Dahomey. There is room for all projects. History should be learned

Those folks were going to kill that Black man for doing his job. They were going to beat him To death. The ancestors called out in rage and the brothers and sisters answered and saved that man’s life.

What is acceptable to dad is not always acceptable to mom. The respectful thing to do is consult with each other on issues that involve mutual children.
HOAs should be banned because they can foreclose on property that you own even after you pay off your mortgage for arbitrary rule. No. Absolutely. Not.
Irony: while the MAGA folks were protesting with sincerity, that dude was golfing. He doesn’t care about them either. Thank God he is almost gone

Mr. Rogers was a true gentleman and taught generations of children kindness and neighborly love. He is the reason PBS got funding. He never harmed anyone. So Mr. Rogers for President sounds like a Godsend after the Minions of horror
@Dapper_Det
Fallacy. Black people do not protest when crimes are committed by private citizens. Justice should prevail if they are guilty.
#BlackLivesMatter
matter is protesting police improperly harming and killing Black people, not folks committing crimes against each other. Tell the truth
@MphoMoalamedi
Don’t know. This is truth. My mom used to tell me the same thing. That people would call her names and be mad when they found out she was Black. She never claimed to be anything else. Interesting how racism colors everything.
Someone wrote, “In 1979, the scariest thing the male writers of the movie Alien could think of was a foreign creature taking up residence in your torso, gestating, then bursting out, killing you.” That’s pregnancy for a lot of women. Maternal mortality rates are frightening
