BREAKING: September 9th will be officially an entire month since the murder of Ferguson African-American unarmed teenage Michael Brown, at the hands of racist Ferguson PD Officer Darren Wilson. In this entire month, Officer Darren Wilson hasn't been heard from, he has literally disappeared. He still has not been arrested, charged, or indicted in the murder of Michael Brown.
#JusticeForMichaelBrown
They're trying to forget already, fuck that shit
so like has no one here talked about the autistic kid who was bullied in the grossest way possible in what was supposed to be the ALS bucket challenge orĀ are we just gonna ignore that
This shit happened in a suburb about 15 minutes away from me trust me that whole fucking town has a black eye on it around here now
the thing i hate most about people who preach ānon-violenceā and āpeaceā is that they never preach to those in power, youāll never hear any of them demanding the police stop killing black people, to stop destroying their neighborhoods, and to put their weapons down, and thatās because these people are not against violence, they are only against resistance.Ā
When you say youāre a feministā¦I hope you really know what that means. It means standing up for women of color. Standing by black women who must deal with being referred to as welfare queens or ratchet. Being a feminist is standing beside immigrant women who deal with wage theft, unsafe working conditions, and being referred to as leaving anchor babies in America. It means standing beside Native American women who face domestic violence and rape at unprecedented rates. It means standing beside Muslim women who choose to live out their faith and face Islamaphobia, sexism and ignorance constantly. It means standing beside Asian women who have been misrepresented in the media to be thought of as only submissive and quiet. Please recognize that feminism impacts the lives of every single one of these groupsā¦but we are all women.

In a baby voice at the cotton club in Harlem. -Ā Esther Jones whoās stage name was āBaby Estherā was a popular entertainer at Harlemās Cotton Club in the late 1920s. Baby Esther interpolated words such as āBoo-Boo-Booā & āDoo-Doo-Dooā in songs at a cabaret.Ā Helen Kane SAW Babyās act in 1928 and (stole) Used it in her hit song I Wanna Be Loved By You. An early test sound film was also discovered, which featured Baby Esther performing in this style, disproving Kaneās claims. Baby Estherās manager also testified that Helen Kane had saw Baby Estherās cabaret act in 1928.Ā Supreme Court Judge Edward J.

donāt forget that Betty Boop was a major influence in Osamu Tezukaās work. Tezuka is considered one of the fathers of modern anime with the ābig doe eyesā style so to some extent all anime girls nowadays owe part of their legacy to this lady!
All totally true, look it up folks
Oh god what the hell
Twitter userĀ @kysadrianĀ has apparently decided to, for whatever reason, dedicate his Twitter to incredibly racist taunting of Asians in response to the death ofĀ ģė¹, a member of the pop group Ladiesā Code thatĀ passed awayĀ today in Seoul in a horrific car accident.
A POC behaving in this way is fucking tragic, especially when itās direct taunting of the death of a young woman. Not that running ātroll accountsā and acting like a piece of rotten meat was something exclusive to white people, but itās disturbing at best.
Who fucking knows what the purpose of this is, but report this Twitter. I donāt have one so iām going to encourage my followers to. Iāve gotten 8 asks directing me to this piece of manure, apparently heās going out of his way to attack fans of the group with this rhetoric for.. what reason. I donāt know.
A. fucking. shame.
THIS IS FUCKING DISGUSTING I WANT HIS LIFE
Singer CeeLo Green took to Twitter today to make an attempt to define what rape is, shortly after pleading no contest for charges that he slipped a woman ecstasy without her consent in 2012
http://www.buzzfeed.com/rachelzarrell/cee-lo-green-says-its-only-rape-if-the-person-is-conscious?bffb
My n****.. Not you too.. Smh..
SMH dude essentially told on himself. Ā
Holy shit. Fuck you CeeLo
yeahā¦ all of the above comments.
I am so disappointed and angry. I loved his music at almost every stage and for him to be a rapist just ruins all of that.
He is 100 percent not sorry. He is admitting that he indeed did rape a woman. God only knows how many other victims there are out there.
Heās married with children. Lord only knows what kind of abuse they have had to endure or victim blaming mindsets he has passed on to them.
I I hope they put him under the jail and the woman he raped getās all the care she needs. He an afford it. She better have life paid for at his expense.
ugh ugh ugh
"It's only rape if she's conscious"...jesus are there more black republicans on the rise or what?
White Supremacy Is
Always seeking the āgoodā in white people even when their behavior is evil and always seeking the āevilā in black people even when their behavior is good.
āFilipinosā¦ the black girls of Asians.ā āDonald Glover
Donald, why are you making me hate you all of the sudden?
Shit.
OK, so let me get this straight:
Donald Glover doesnāt like black women.
Donald Glover has a fetish for Asian women.
But Donald Glover doesnāt like Filipino women because they are the āblack girls of Asiansā.
We should point out the weird intersectionality problem involving more complex issues like internalized antiblackness,Ā fetishization,Ā and toxic black male attitudes towards black women thatās going on here.
-Mod C
but how you shit on both black women and filipina women in one anti-black misogynist fetishizing swoop? He literally attacked asian women who didnt fit into his exotic fetish of what they should be, by shitting on black women.
ā¦.. I thought I liked him a while ago and then I realized heās a piece of shit.Ā
Itās like misogynoiristic, orientalist-fetish bingo. Ewā¦
He actually said that he likes āthe black girls of every culture.ā Which is still filled with misogynoir. He said Filipinas were the āblackā Asian girls and he referred to Armenians as the āblackā white girls.Ā
Basically he doesnāt like black girls. He fetishizes Asian girls. He deals with internalized racism (the whole cumming when she called him a āniggerā). And then he likes the āblacknessā when its not on black girls. Which weāre not new to. Our features/aesthetics without our bodies/skin color.Ā
Heās problematic as fuck. Thatās why weāre not watching Spiderman.Ā
Throw in Tyler the Creator too while we're at it.
my cis privilege is
if i don't shave my legs or pits: "oooooh badass feminist!!! ooooh fight the power!!! how cool"
if a trans* woman doesn't shave her legs or pits: "ew gross that's just a hairy man in girl's clothes ew"
if i don't wear makeup: "oooooooh natural beauty!!!! ooooohhhhh confidence!!!!!"
if a trans* woman doesn't wear makeup: "ew gross if you're so hellbent on being a woman at least try to look like one ew"
if i dress in androgynous clothing: "wow badass oh man so edgy wow rlly hot wow fighting gender roles!!!!!!!'
if a trans* woman dresses in androgynous clothing: "ew if yr a woman why don't you dress like one hahahaha wow yr like 1000000 lightyears away from passing how gross"
if i dress super femme: "whoa so cute so pretty omg wow yr so gorgeous"
if a trans* woman dresses super femme: "ew yr totally upholding gender roles gross yr like a parody of a woman ew how stereotypical and awful"
What fucks me up about the Darren Wilson fundraiser is that he hasnāt been charged with a crime. He doesnāt have to hire a lawyer. Heās on paid leave, so heās not losing wages. This is not covering his expenses, because he doesnāt have any additional expenses. This is a reward. Heās getting a $250,000 reward for murdering an unarmed black kid, two days away from starting college, in broad daylight.
Disgusting.

this.
This succinctly explains why black people shame each other.

Perfect!!!!! This is such a hard concept to explain. Ughhhh I love this woman.
People arenāt talkin about the news, theyāre talking about what they think the news is. There is no news channel saying āThis is what happened, draw your own conclusions.ā We have made this country so bereft of critical thinking, that now we have a problem where we have to teach them to think for themselves. We have no unified authority, or problem solvers. We have congressman discussing environmentalism, when they donāt understand half the problems our earth is going through. We go to congress instead of going to people who have worked their whole LIFE trying to solve these problems. When it comes to racism, weāre asking a panel of white dudes, when it comes to sexism and womanās rights we ask a panel of white priests on what they think. ITāS INSANITY! We ask people who are not in the arena they should be speaking in/for. AND THATāS WHY WE DONāT trust the media, itās because theyāre not in the arena of black experience, and they donāt care about the black experience, UNTIL something bad happens and they have the tools to paint us as destructive, ugly and evil!
