I’m gonna go out and guess… an all white jury ?

“Researchers who studied Florida non–death penalty cases between 2000 and 2010 found that when just one black juror joined the pool, the gap in conviction rates narrowed to 2 percent”

How White People Handle Diversity Training in the Workplace

As a former professor and current facilitator and consultant, I am in a position to give white people feedback on how their unintentional racism is manifesting itself. In this position, I have observed countless enactments of white fragility.

One of the white participants left the session and went back to her desk, upset at receiving (what appeared to the training team as) sensitive and diplomatic feedback on how some of her statements had impacted several of the people of color in the room. […] [Later] her friends wanted to alert us to the fact that she was in poor health and “might be having a heart attack.” Upon questioning from us, they clarified that they meant this literally. These co-workers were sincere in their fear that the young woman might actually die as a result of the feedback. 

All of this is going to feel very familiar to anyone who’s blogged about racism in fandom.

“White fragility functions as a form of bullying: ‘I am going to make it so miserable for you to confront me — no matter how diplomatically you try to do so — that you will simply back off, give up, and never raise the issue again.’ White fragility keeps people of color in line and “in their place.” In this way, it is a powerful form of white racial control. Social power is not fixed; it is constantly challenged and needs to be maintained.”

Would you watch a 4-hour cut of ‘Black Panther’?

[proto-homo]

GIVE ME THE 4 HOUR CUT OF THE MOVIE AND THE SCORE NOW!!!

[negrocops]

RELEASE THE COOGLER CUT

[oh-shit-i-hit-post-limit]

I NEED ALL 4 HOURS. RUN ME MY ALL 4 HOURS. THANK YOU

[khalifaziz]

can we just take some time to appreciate the fact that, yes, people are calling for a release of a director’s cut of the movie, but that’s because it was a legitimately good movie that everyone wants to see more of, and NOT because the movie flopped and we’re trying to convince people “no, it really is good, trust me!” 

[gahdamnpunk]

Would be great to see more Black female directors

Viola Davis in Porter Magazine

[black-to-the-bones-deactivated2]

He was an activist who inspired millions to fight for their rights. He knew what was wrong with our country and risked his life to help his people achieve equality.  In the society where black were treated like animal he did everything possible to change this. His brave soul, his will and courage changed the history of America , changed the people. He made us believe we can win this war. He payed for it with his life. He will always be remembered.

[thecheshirecass-deactivated2018]

Respecting his memory also means acknowledging that his fight is far from over, black people are facing the same issues that ha birth to the Black Panthers, and that the FBI is basically trying to launch COINTELPRO 2.0 against BLM and other black activists. Hampton should be more than a history lesson, he should be a rallying point.

[weavemama]

anyway black women are having miscarriages in Flint and there has yet to be an outrage from the “pro-life” community

[ddestr0yedd-deactivated20180403]

can we call this a genocide yet?

[weavemama]

keep in mind this is a MAN-MADE health crisis. they changed the water of a lower-income black community for a reason. 12 people have died so far because of the water and now the women are suffering from miscarriages. this story needs as much attention as possible. a black community is still being poisoned and pro-lifers don’t seem to give a shit
