The CPD fucked up and knows their fuck-ups would be revealed if they tried this case. And the case against Jussie would fail.

It’s funny to watch white people on the internet lose their minds over this. Was this what it was like when O.J. got off? Also, I saw someone saying Eddie Johnson from the CPD is ‘furious’ about this. Yeah, he’s furious that someone other than a murderous Chicago cop was able to escape justice: https://theintercept.com

Indeed. It’s stunning how good white supremacists are at lying to themselves. It’s the same when they talk about the countries that they colonized and ramsacked for centuries, arguing that the continuing struggle of those countries is indicative of the inferiority of non-whiteness rather than the long ranging

Her ascent was fueled by black men and women like Daniel and Kanye West. Kanye flew her to Uganda to take pictures of black kids.

I could tell the kind of women he prioritizes from his music videos.

we = you and her. you are itching for a fight. 

I’m not a black man, sorry if that ruins your point. 

He’s not being destroyed, but he’s getting an out-sized reaction for sure. Teen Vogue published an article with the headline ‘Why Terry Crews Perpetuates Toxic Masculinity’ after his parenting comments. Google results like that can be very detrimental to someone working on issues related to sexual assault while also

From what I saw unfold on Black Twitter, ‘our’ people got the most mad when he asked if there were a forum where just Black men could speak to each other. The batshit responses from woke woman Twitter were ridiculous. ‘Oh, he deliberately wants to do this without the input of black feminists!!! Eff his ass!”

Definitely talks in circles like Kanye.

This kind of thing, among many other things, is how you know the average white person is lying when they act ignorant about the fact that racism and racist animus still exists. They’ve witnessed each other speak about black people and other people of color like this. As a black immigrant to America I’ve seen this

And even some black people will make excuses about how the victim could have behaved differently to avoid being killed because of their skin color! I hate that shit. We’re not even allowed to be human and have emotion and stand up for our rights to not be treated like animals. And our own people will admonish us for

He could have been shot at any time. It really wasn’t about what he had in his hand or how he obeyed commands and we should stop pretending it is. They just as easily could have pulled up and immediately opened fire, like that Chicago police officer did to the developmentally challenged teenager he saw walking on the

This happens in the workplace too, when it comes to black Millennial workers and black workers from previous generations. They’ve gotten used to the status quo and almost get mad at younger black people for trying to challenge it. 

Your comment (and this article) reminds me of this James Baldwin quote: “I love America more than any other country in this world, and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.”

This is so obviously a whole-ass lie. Who does he think he’s fooling?

Come on now. I’m sure he’s talking about music videos that feature men being surrounded by hordes of twerking women.

I will not be surprised when R.Kelly and his lawyers eventually equate his treatment to lynching as well. It’s the center tile on the Black Man Who Are Predators bingo sheet. 

Am I the only one who sometimes feels like raising a black child in America is basically condemning them to be traumatized?
