Lawyer. DEI Professional. I don’t post much, and am mainly just here to follow sports, fantasy books/shows, anime, politics, and Black folk. Plotting the resistance. Never talk to the police w/o a lawyer!
Diving deeper into Black Panther as I’ve been mainly a fan of the MCU version. The introduction of BP and the writing of the day is wild!!! The casual racism which was actually trying to be progressive at the time.
They should’ve rejected the premise that Clark is being targeted because of her race, rather than implicitly accept the “bitter Black women” narrative. They could’ve maintained that it was flagrant while rejecting that it was some kind of assault. Trash response. Do better WNBA and Fever.
I find it interesting (not surprising) that white Americans claim their race is less important than being American. But this is misleading since many white Americans (particularly conservatives) view being white as a prerequisite for being American. In other words, we all care about race a lot.
I appreciate how Kerr calls out nonsense and advocates for a more just/equitable world. It’s why I, a Lakers fan, have cheered for the Warriors the last 10 years (except against LA). But as we know, white people in power never like their fellow whites speaking up. www.sfgate.com/warriors/art...
People like this are insufferable, and obviously have no understanding of the role joy plays in resistance. These are the folk that would scold Black folk for having a celebration during Jim Crow. It’s ok to enjoy things even in crisis. And if you can’t do that, I suggest you seek help.
First book for Black History Month was the biography of Claudette Colvin. Highly recommend. Dives below the surface details and examines how central she was in the pursuit of justice. Currently reading @claycane.bsky.social now. I can’t lie, the title immediately hooked me.
And I was saying this at the time as well, when plenty of people acknowledged that Chet was playing better than Wemby.
@espn.com new box score on the app is terrible. I want to see fg percentages and shot attempts at a first glance. I want to know if a star has 15 points on 3/4 plus FTs or if he has 15 on 5/22. That context matters much more when I’m trying to quickly get up to speed on a game. Smh.
I’ve got news for JD Vance. Unity was already impossible with anyone who thinks that Kirk had something worth saying to begin with. Fuck them both and anyone who agreed with Kirk. The world is a safer place without Kirk.
While this can work sometimes, I’d recommend against it bc it will fail more often. 1. Employers can defend against a claim by showing that you knew about reporting mechanisms but failed to take advantage (unless you can show a good reason for not reporting. “I don’t trust HR” won’t work). 1/3
OP stated that liberal white women claim sexism is worse than racism. Countless Black folk confirmed that and you were still in disbelief. I then posted a screenshot stating exactly that. In response to OP, a liberal white woman is arguing that sexism is worse bc Black men still control their body
As I said, examples are literally in this thread. But instead, you refused to believe what Black folk are saying all throughout this thread and couldn’t even be bothered to look. Then implied that we’re too dumb to know what we’re talking about because we must be being fooled by right wing prop.
Just discovered this book at the library and I probably enjoyed it too much lol. Mo Willems out here really calling out the nonsense of Goldilocks 😂 Might have to read this to my kids a few times.
Yooo! I’m on book 2 of the Red Rising series and it is incredible. Darrow is a hell of a protagonist, and the depth of his allies/friends/enemies continues to impress me. I recommend the graphic audio version as well.
Talking about “I’m a Black man” but feeling a lot like a Russian troll account or an aggrieved white male lol.
Nearly half of white Americans still have a favorable view of trump. I wish I was more surprised by this…
This is infuriating. At a time where thousands of government employees are being laid off, this fascist regime is offering $50,000 signing bonuses and student loan forgiveness (you know, the thing the conservatives killed at the Supreme Court for the rest of us) to hire 10,000 more slave catchers.
It’s wild watching people get so upset over the decision to make Angel Reese one of the cover athletes for this years 2K. She’s one of the most marketable WNBA players and has nearly 2 million more followers than any other player (yes, including “her”). And honestly she’s probably a cheaper option
Seriously CNN?! Y’all think I’m going to pay for your articles now, of all times? It’s one thing to have subscription only articles, but apparently I can’t read anything now due to some arbitrary article limit.
Tough loss for the Storm today. Had a chance to pull it out though.
Finally made it to the Land of Wano. Been wondering what my guy Zoro has been up to all this time.
Basketball aside, I just finished Sky Full of Elephants by Cebo Campbell. Highly recommend.
This just made me think of the scene in The Office where Jim points out that Dwight, even in his own fantasy, is merely a co-owner with Satan. You got to have higher standards for yourself in shadow dribbling 😂
Is LeBron’s streak of scoring in double digits finally going to end tonight???
It won’t last long as I’ve lost 2 sweet 16 picks already, but at least it’s looking good now.
