Daryl Davis is a Chicago blues musician, who uses his friendship with KKK to convince members to leave this organization. He successfully persuaded 25 former white supremacists that there’s another way. Davis has his own strategy, he explains and talks to people in more than friendly way, that allows to prevent usual misunderstanding. 

‘They may be yelling and screaming or pounding the table, but at least they’re talking, they’re not fighting.’

Davis choose to disarm them with polite conversation and smile. And this worked out. 

It doesn’t mean he’s anti-Black, he just chose his own path. No need to spread fake facts. This is very important!

He dismantled every KKK group in his entire state by merely befriending the individual members.

Look how effective his method was compared to screeching at people and calling them buzzwords.

I met Carrie Fisher exactly once at a convention, and when I met her she immediately bought a poster from our booth with the words “Hey Assbutt” on them with the intention of sending it to Harrison Ford for his birthday.

I’d like to think of that as the epitome of how I’d like to have met her and honestly wouldn’t want it any other way.

[ghostofqueernessyettocome]

Apparently Fisher regularly went to cons and would spend hours in Artists’ Alley buying bags worth of art, to the point where you could track her path around the con by watching artists freak out on Twitter over the fact that Princess Leia just bought their stuff.

Carrie Fisher was a goddamn treasure.

Evening Post: August 12, 1899. “She immediately alighted, caught hold of the astonished youth, and gave him a sound thrashing, using her fists in a scientific fashion…” I would love to know what this means.

[fozmeadows]

I think that might be code for “punched him in the balls with devastating accuracy”.

[venusian--eye-deactivated201606]

it is absolutely code for “punched him in the balls with devastating accuracy”

[ayellowbirds]

As is the case with boxing, it most likely means that she was precise and methodical. So, yes. She punched him in the balls with devastating accuracy.
