and it’s no accident that this segment is conveniently left out of our education
The white-washing of MLK jr. and the civil rights movement on a whole to make history look kindly upon white folk and convince POC of the disempowering lie that is “Be polite, nice, & don’t challenge us & you’ll get your rights” is one that disgusts me to no end.
all of this shit. every single last bit of it.
Also the demonization of Malcolm X as being “Militant” and “violent”

We ran across this a few years ago and we figured to post it up here. It’s about the time when Asher Roth said that he hanged with “nappy headed hoes” once. This inspired him to make a video cautioning people about being “extra comfortable”…
When people comes together, the bounties change, but you never stop having bounties in any healthy relationship.
Check out this gem of a video.
Ohhh THIS.
“We start acting as if coming closer together means not having to care about how our words affect each other… Because now that we’ve made all this progress, everyone’s always going to know that we didn’t mean it like that right?… NOOOO.”
“When people start coming together the boundaries change, but you never stop having any boundaries…”
“In any relationship, the closer you get, the more you care about how you affect each other… That’s like a basic rule of life, it’s not rocket science.”

JUNE 14TH!!!!! :D
A man listed as witness 13 was one of the first people to approach Zimmerman minutes after the shooting. He saw him bleeding from the back of the head and nose. Zimmerman asked the unidentified man to call his wife for him.
“Let her know what’s happening, been involved in a shooting and will be held for questioning,” the witness told the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. “He was more like, talking like he was having a hard time, looked like he just got his butt whipped … not like he was in shock, not like, ‘I can’t believe I just shot someone,’ but like, ‘Just tell my wife I just shot someone,’ like it was nothing.”
A woman identified as witness 5 walked out of her home after hearing the altercation to find Zimmerman standing over Martin’s body. She said she asked him what was going on and he curtly said just, “Call the police.”
The woman told police that Zimmerman, 28, examined Martin’s body as he slowly paced back and forth when the police arrived. She watched as they checked the teen’s body and turned him over, eventually starting CPR. But he was already dead for five or 10 minutes, she said.
“I do honestly feel that he intended for this kid to die,” witness 5 told investigators. “If you’re in self defense, shoot him in the leg. He’s a 17-year-old, scrawny little kid. You get into a physical fight with him. … I think the kid was running for help.”
OMG!!! YES!
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
