“In some ways, even though his picture is not there, Colin Kaepernick is there...”

I so completely agree with you that it hurts; I’m so angry that the one lone individual who had the cojones to do it by himself and be blackballed/listed by everyone (including his ‘mother’) and who now can’t get a team to let him play for what he’s worth was left off this cover and now they’re trying to whitewash him…

I really wish this wasn’t necessary but these type of white people are on the root like flies on shit.

Before we begin, we want to make it clear that the enclosed references to “white people” do not literally mean all white people.

By the time the Superbowl rolls around, everyone will be observing a minute on their knee before the game to support those suffering from economic anxiety and the opioid crisis. Heck it might be part of the halftime show!

Keeping Kaep off of the SI cover is like taking Jesus out of the bible. You don’t get the full story. How it even made it to print that way is mind boggling. We wouldn’t still be talking avout this issue if it weren’t for the man in question taking a seat and then taking a knee. Not only is his cause (America’s cause,…

This is why I laughed at people who are asking NFL corporate to take a firm position on these issues.

I said this the moment the Steelers announced they’d be staying in the locker room. Kaepernick’s protest was done. It had lost its meaning completely. All these people who suddenly decided to join in weren’t protesting police brutality, they were protesting the president.

What’s mind boggling is that SI could have killed it, even from the perspective of trying to report on this with “objectivity” or “distance” by putting his outline at the front, kneeling, filled in with black.

There’s no way you can tell me our people aren’t awesome. We literally invented Viral.

This post went up at 2 am lmao, the Root at Night is lit. Also, this from Corey has me dead this morning:

“DM me when that bitch go ta sleep for the D.”

So Alabama chose Miracle Whip over Kraft Mayo?

AH yes, the Ten Commandments guy. Really sad that Thou Shalt Not Be a Segregationist Theocrat With a Gun Fetish didn’t make Moses’ cut back in the day.

Keep searching Lorne. The next Eddie is out there somewhere.

So now that Sasheer is gone, who’s gonna play all the classy black lady roles? They seem incapable of imagining Leslie Jones as anything other than loud and physical. They’ll probably make the new dude cross dress before they give her something more stereotypically feminine

Jesus, how fucking hard is it for these people to look at history. Being white was a social construct created to enforce oppression and inequality. When my ancestors came here, they were not considered white. They were immigrants. Irish, German, Hungarians, Greeks, Italians, all people that are considered white now,…

As protests over the acquittal of former Police Officer Jason Stockley continued throughout the city of St. Louis

That plagiarism tweet was stealthy and beautiful, like a ninja sunset.
