Burning Man is for stupid people. The rest of us are smart enough get high* AND enjoy flush toilets.
You have the same phenomenon in national parks. If you go to Yellowstone, Glacier, Smoky Mountain, you see almost no Black people- you see more Europeans and Canadians than Black Americans. The Latinos you see are often South Americans or Mexican tourists.
“I wish I had my hair’s personality. My hair clearly doesn’t give a shit. It possesses a confidence I could only wish to emulate.”
This is by far the most joyful thing I’ve read all week. Where do I get my ticket for next year?!! Looking forward to the product reviews too. That’s a lot of castor oil tho...
I’m so glad this exists. I’m glad you went natural way back when. And I’m glad that this Natural Hair Movement has allowed me to confront my own hair bias and accept myself a bit more.
I was natural before it was cool, too

Omarosa has aligned herself with an administration that is openly hostile to POC. She has done this voluntarily. SHe also voluntarily carried herself down to NOLA as though her presence at the NABJ cookout was going to be well-received. She’s delusional to think that she could sit on a panel and not be asked pointed…
So what you are really saying is “What had happened was....”

Dear fellow white people, if you keep having to point things out about yourself, you’ve entirely missed the entire point, and, in a lot of ways, aren’t that different from the “All lives matter” crowd. Don’t be like that. If you’re not a racist piece of shit, you have nothing to worry about, and you shouldn’t be…
If you consider yourself an ally and this kind of talk offends you or if you find it dismissive of your allegiance, you’re part of the problem. If you know you’re an ally, then you should be able to just keep calm and carry on.
This guy really needs to go home and reflect on the crap he unleashed on this world.
Smack that fool.
Oh, yes!
I needed a good, hearty belly laugh after all the horrible news.
