Black Twitter Drags New Black Celebs

One of the first and most influential users of the tag, #BlackCelebsBeLike, was Zellie Imani, an activist and blogger behind the website black-culture. “The goal really was to challenge the pedestal we sometimes put celebrities on and not to allow media to use them as spokespersons for [all] black people,” he tells BBC Trending via email.

Imani mentioned the remarks by Common and Terrence Howard. “I was surprised that the hashtag took off so fast but i wasn’t surprised at how many people felt about the issue,” he says. “Celebrities experience racism and discrimination even when they are in denial of its existence. Denying racism doesn’t make it exist any less.”

‘F*ck you’: Director of at-risk LGBTQ youth center tears into vandals who taunted kids with noose

Vandals broke into the Providence Youth Student Movement on Sunday, hanging a noose from the ceiling of the queer support center in Providence, Rhode Island.

PrYSM serves to mobilize queer Southeast Asian youth to “organize collectively for social justice,” offering safe spaces “to advocate for ourselves, support our communities, organize for political empowerment, and build community.”

“PrYSM organizes at the intersections of race, class, gender, and sexual orientation by centering youth, women, queer, and people of color leadership in our campaigns, our organization, and our communities,”

“You will not intimidate us, you will not steer us away from our mission, you will never dampen our spirit. You have only motivated us even more. We will continue to fight for justice and defend our community, our families, and our people.”

This is disgusting! There is nothing worse than haters invading safe spaces. Enough is enough! Report it and catch those scums and spread their picture all over social media and the news and let the world know this is real and it’s happen to good people! They should be accountable for their actions!

The Kite Runner (2013)

“The unforgettable, heartbreaking story of the unlikely friendship between a wealthy boy and the son of his father’s servant, The Kite Runner is a beautifully crafted novel set in a country that is in the process of being destroyed. It is about the power of reading, the price of betrayal, and the possibility of redemption; and an exploration of the power of fathers over sons—their love, their sacrifices, their lies.

A sweeping story of family, love, and friendship told against the devastating backdrop of the history of Afghanistan over the last thirty years, The Kite Runner is an unusual and powerful novel that has become a beloved, one-of-a-kind classic. “
