I don’t know who you are, but I’m one of the people who has to hear this shit regularly & I’m tired of it. Instead of whining/getting sick of people who are “popular” try doing something proactive & talking up people who are “unpopular” if new voices are so important to you. But then that would require effort & admitting that people don’t have any control over what...

My death threat count is so high that I ignore all but the ones that sound like they might have a clue of my locale. I’ve had at least one stalker send pics of me walking with my family, & any number of people who meant no harm let slip places where I was going to be in public. A friend used to think I was paranoid, until we were walking through her neighborhood & someone...

and i think there is a bit of tumblr culture where ‘popular’ or well-followed blogs are put on pedestals as well in a creepy, celebrity, folks turn entitled kind of way.

that popular black women blogs get …

notime4yourshit:
The clique discussion that has been occurring on my dash throughout day amuses me. Some of ya’ll seriously need to marinate on why you feel the need to regulate others, directly or indirectly, for some temporary shine instead of doing your own thing in your own space. Cause truth be told, if you were really busy doing you, you wouldn’t have time to worry about everyone else.

Trayvon Martin shooting: It’s not George Zimmerman crying for help on 911 recording, 2 experts say
5:38 p.m. EST, March 31, 2012|

As the Trayvon Martin controversy splinters into a debate about self-defense, a central question remains: Who was heard crying for help on a 911 call in the moments before the teen was shot?
A leading expert in...

Melissa Harris-Perry: “How White People Can Talk About Trayvon Martin
I was prepared to hate this. I figured she was going to be one of mine that had to be collected in the name of “Satire.” I am glad I was wrong and…can each and every person who sees this, commit this list to memory and use it not only in the Trayvon Martin case but ya know, always?

My final opinion on this:
I think you should leave them right where they are, and I’ll tell you why.
They show how even the most honorable — and most often unrelated — of things can be misconstrued and derailed, and eventually boiled down to something utterly unresembling the original meat from which it was derived.
They show where folks on both sides of an issue may be able...

red3blog:
No one is saying that you have to explicitly state you aren’t fat shaming. The issue was you weren’t clear at all what point you felt you were making. You felt it went without saying. What you continue to willfully disregard is the the way such an approach empowers bigots to see their bigotry. Because they feel that goes without saying, too. We get that you didn’t see the possible fat...
sugaredvenom:
Yes, we are asking you to go out of your way to not appear fat shaming. If you’re anti-fat hate then that’s not a big ask. Clearly a lot of your followers aren’t judging by the responses. You’ve made your position clear, one I wasn’t aware of before your post, and I had no reason to assume you’e anti-fat hate. As a fat person it’s not a risk I can take to assume someone is...
alexandraerin:
The thing is that “just looking for something to bitch about” is the kind of comment that people who call things out are used to getting as a matter of course, so maybe the wording wasn’t the wisest… but you were obviously talking about the fact that the referenced post wasn’t written yet, not the fact that someone saw potential fat hatred and said something about it.

red3blog:
Fat shaming is so pervasive in our culture that frankly you can’t just use an image of a fat person with unspoken commentary and not expect it to be read as fat shaming. The problem isn’t fat people being too “sensitive”. The problem are all the people who feel entitled to fat hate who will smugly read that and not consider any other point. If you have another point, articulate it. If...
holagordita:
calm the fuck down.
sugaredvenom understands racismschool wasn’t fat-shaming. the problem is that when sugaredvenom said ‘this feels like fat-shaming’ racismschool went on the defensive and mocked the shit out of her. he called it ‘finding something to bitch about’. even if this time we were wrong, anti-fat hatred isn’t ‘something to bitch about’, and it needs to not be fucking...

No, it wasn’t. It was about his hypocrisy.

It isn’t so much the uniform as it is that he seems to be representing himself in a different way than he actually is. Yet, made a big fuss over the picture being used in the Trayvon Martin case.

I don’t know that this is about his looks/appearance so much as what he’s wearing (i’m looking at you, badge, uniform, and iron cross), and the fact that he knowingly portrayed himself as someone he’s not.
From what I’m looking at, he deliberately used a younger, far more innocuous-seeming image to portray himself as someone people could maybe relate to, when it...

Wow! REALLY? No, as you you will see in a later post, he went on a rant about how people were using a picture of Trayvon Martin that was from how ever many years ago to make him look “Innocent.” My point, was that this person was ALSO using a picture that looks like it was...

The person in question went on a racist tirade a few days ago. The best part is that on the day of the ongoing racist rants, his “About me” section said “I am not a racist” as well as made a claim that he is “Educated.” Now, I had to say “On the day of” because by the next morning, “I am not a racist” had mysteriously disappeared from his “About Me” section.
None the less, imagine a person who is...

That just happened to me. My friend was talking about what we have to do to make the Black community stronger. He said something he’s said many times over but this time, it sounded different. He said,
