Good stories are my jam. Professionally, I help major brands tell their stories. Personally, I write (true) stories on uncomfortable topics: faith, politics, race, relationships, and current events.

So even in your rebuttal, you’re still talking about black women (Angela Davis, preeminent Black feminist who wrote the seminal prison abolition book: “Are Prisons Obsolete”, has been apart of the movement since it’s inception in the US as well).

“Stop generalizing!”

Thanks for defending my honor, but I actually loved Damon’s take (and edited this piece). VSB, while part of The Root, speaks in its own voice, as I at The Glow Up speak in mine, and as a news writer, Anne writes in hers. Interestingly enough, I think that’s what we’re encouraging people to do: to create space for

You answered your own question yourself when you quoted “Straight Black Men Are the White People of Black People”. You don’t understand how misogyny works in the black community.

How the fuck does one equate Oprah with Bill Cosby? Fucking R Kelly who urinated on a 13 year old girl??? You can’t have an honest discussion using bad faith arguments. They are serial rapists. You can’t compare the two.

When the checks stop coming. Bitch ass had nan to say until the head of CBS News came out against him which is owned by Viacom who owns VH1 which run his show with Stewart. He pretends that he didn’t say what he said.

There was a great discussion to be had in the wake of the Lisa Leslie interview that was all shot to hell by Snoop’s horrible comments.

I guess people forgot Snoop made a song called, Bitches Ain’t Shit, is friends with Don “Magic” Juan and beat a murder case. Ya’ll do know he ain’t a nice guy right?

1. I admittedly cringed when I initially watched the clip, and you may notice my article was not a defense of King’s interviewing style or choices, because frankly, my feelings remain somewhat mixed and likely always will.

Why is his wife supposed to fix his entitled arse? That has to come from within.

Is it his wife’s job to educate him though? I mean, yes, we should let our loved ones know when they’ve fucked up, but he’s a grown man with an education and internet access. He can learn if he wants to. Other people as well have been trying to help him understand both this choice and his homophobic comments are
