75 years ago, on February 29, 1940, actress Hattie McDaniel made history by becoming the first African American, male or female, to win an Oscar. She won Best Supporting Actress for her role as Mammy in the movie Gone With the Wind.

The following day, Hollywood gossip columnist Louella Parsons wrote of McDaniel’s win: Hattie McDaniel earned that gold Oscar by her fine performance of ‘Mammy’ in Gone with the Wind. If you had seen her face when she walked up to the platform and took the gold trophy, you would have had the choke in your voice that all of us had when Hattie, hair trimmed with gardenias, face alight, and dress up to the queen’s taste, accepted the honor in one of the finest speeches ever given on the Academy floor.

DO YOU REMEMBER

[tohkb]

On September 11th 1973, US-backed General Pinochet overthrew the democratically elected leader of Chile, Salvadore Allende. Pinochet ordered an air strike on the Presidential Palace, labor activists and famous folk guitarists were rounded up for torture, disappeared, and killed. Pinochet converted the national football stadium into a detention facility like Guantanamo Bay. Chile’s economy was turned into a plantation for the 1%, as inequality and poverty skyrocketed under the imposed Milton Friedman-style economic model. Over 40,000 Chileans became victims of Pinochet’s terror. In response, the Nixon administration committed more money, more training, more torture equipment. The world didn’t begin on September 11th, 2001. Rather, for the first time in modern history, Americans were visited by the same violence the US has imposed since its creation. In Chile, the US murdered tens of thousands and impoverished millions. This wasn’t America’s first foray in international terrorism, nor would it be the last. The United States security state is a terrorist and a plague on the people of the world.

I saw these advertised and can’t get over how fragile you need to be to feel better about band aids matching your skin color.

[ricwulf]

Frankly, based on their mindset, it’s clear they haven’t graduated yet from using these ones.

[siryouarebeingmocked]

I haven’t cared about this kind of crap since I was 9.

Oh, and the bandaids I have in my drawer right now are all white. Not for white people, just plain white. Translucent, actually, except for the pad.

[carthages-finest]

I liken their feeling to my aunt who had cancer in her nose in the 80s they removed her nose and a portion of the roof of her mouth as well as her top teeth…. She was offered a prosthetic nose but they had no color to match her skin tone they didn’t “know to blend that color” and nobody did my aunt walked this earth till the day she died in 2008 going between people staring at her because of the gap in her face and gawking or because she had a peach colored nose her face so I get it representation matters and I take that joy from no one wherever they find it. WE FUCKING DESERVE IT!!!!

[carthages-finest]

A booboo and a nose surgery are not exactly apples to apples.

[kushtimusprime]

It the representation of color in the medical(all) products offered to us it’s 🍎🍎 2🍏🍏

[carthages-finest]

Literally making sure a prosthetic nose is the same color as the rest of your body, and a temporary bandage, basically a piece of medical clothing, are not the same. In fact they’re worlds apart.

[kushtimusprime]

Who are you to determine the length of time someone (anyone) of (any)color would need to use this piece of medical clothing…and why it shouldn’t match their skin? Same 🌍

[carthages-finest]

Lol what? Are we still talking about bandaid? They’re temporary by design until the healing process is complete. I’m not saying anything about what should and shouldn’t. Just pointing out the differences from your analogy. I might consider checking if you’re a satire account after this reply because…. what???

[kushtimusprime]

The length of use of each one is temporary but the overall use of band aids can be life long to cover up lessions, scars, cuts that some diseases cause so healing may never be complete so why can't they have natural color? My analogy is spot on, your head is jus dumb thick if you can seem to understand why representation matters in every thing we consume(purchase, watch, hear, and use).

There is an EVICTION MORATORIUM in the entire U.S. until the new year, but you MUST declare it to your landlord in order for it to be effective.  This does not cancel your rent, but it will delay a potential eviction.  PLEASE share this info so that those who need it, have it, bc they aren’t being vocal in promoting this.

[kushtimusprime]

So make sure that u stay on you p's an q's cause landlords cannot use non-payment of rent but any other breach of lease like yard maintenance,non payment of utilities, having pets etc they pick at what they can to get you out so protect yo neck

That’s why you should never accept the excuse “Well it was a different time.” They knew it was wrong. They always knew.

RNC attendees tried to hide a demonstrator’s “No racism, No hate” sign with an American flag. Clearly they failed to see the irony. The protester was from the Code Pink group — who haven’t been slowed down by this at all.

[wilwheaton]

Using an American flag to cover up someone calling for an end to racism and hate is the best metaphor I’ve seen in a long time for the GOP.
