50-year anniversary of the 9/15/1963 murder of four African-American girls in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama.
Their names are Cynthia Wesley, Carole Robinson, Addie Mae Collins and Denise McNair.
Never forget that they killed young black women as well.
:-))
This is great
They should make it clear so guys can use it to! :3
I think a clear version of the nail polish is a brilliant idea. I want to clarify now that THE NAIL POLISH IS NOT FOR SALE YET. I read so on Undercover Colors Facebook Page: ”Thank you so much for the positive response and interest in Undercover Colors. We could not be more thrilled with the supportive feedback we’ve received so far! Many people are wondering where they can purchase Undercover Colors, and while we love the enthusiasm, we need to clarify a few items that may have been lost in all the media excitement of the past few days.
First of all, our product is not yet for sale. We are in the early development of our nail polish. One of our main priorities is to ensure that we develop a product that tests for a comprehensive set of drugs before we release it. Our proof-of-concept research has been very promising and we want to continue to build on this early success before we officially release a product in stores. Your continued support as we work through our research phase is not only appreciated, but crucial to our goal of developing the first effective deterrent to drug-facilitated sexual assault. Secondly, we are definitely considering a crowdsourcing campaign, like Kickstarter. Thank you for this suggestion. Our audience will be the first to know if and when this campaign launches. Lastly, we have been astounded and uplifted by your feedback. The support has been truly overwhelming! Unfortunately, we are a small company and we are not able to respond to every message individually. Please know that I have personally read each one, and I am blown away by your openness and kindness. We are committed to bringing this product to market in the quickest timeframe we can muster. If you would like to help us speed up the process, please consider supporting our research and development efforts. Right now our biggest need is in the research and development department. And while we have raised over $10,000 from personal donations which go directly towards R&D, more is needed for adequate and timely development. If you are interested in supporting this cause, please visit http://undercovercolors.com/undercover-colors—support-us.html. We have added a Paypal option here as well. We look forward to developing this great product as quickly as possible. Thank you again for your support and inspiration. All the best, Tyler Confrey-Maloney Cofounder and CEO”

i think the best but also saddest thing about this is that MEN created this product to protect women from MEN
Preach.

This is a great comeback for all of that “I don’t see race.” BS
The nerve of white people claiming “reverse racism” when their people socially constructed race.
"Reverse racism" is white supremacy backfiring on you.
Also, the overrated white men you learn about in school all contributed to the social construct of race/white supremacy.
Basically any prominent white man during the Age of Enlightenment and so forth.
Never Forget Them

Bill O’Reilly “does not believe in white privilege,” saying it’s a “big lie that is keeping some African-Americans from reaching their full potential.”
Now back to reality:
Yes, this is the same multimillionaire who "exempt[ed]" himself from “that white privilege banner” because he used to “paint houses” and “cut lawns.”
This expired jar of mayonnaise does not surprise anymore. I expected him to release nonsensical commentary on the Ferguson/Michael Brown case.

Yoooooooooooooo but how many white women were responsible for the lynching of black men? Who stood next to hanging bodies, smiling while their pictures were taken? And who continue to trivialize black culture to look and sound trendy and cute? Get that shit out of here, black people don't owe white women shit.
EXACTLY 👊✌️👌
White people act like Martin Luther King Jr was Jesus and died for their racist sins
goes to show you what they’d do to a black Jesus
Didn’t she steal this from a Black Tumble post……
Does it matter where she got it from, though? She’s supporting Black feminists…
I’m 100% sure she has the ability to cite her sources instead of plagiarizing a Black Woman’s work. We do not need “support” that erases our words.
Those are not her words.
She 100% stole this from a Black Tumblr user. I can’t remember who said it, but I’m 100% certain I’ve reblogged it and it’s buried in my archives somewhere. Probably around the time she dropped her album.
i hope someone can find it because she is denying knowledge of anyone saying it before she did:
I’m awestruck at her response.
It’s literally word for word and she’s like “did someone else say it”, like you and I both know all you hit was copy and paste.
The Events in Ferguson will one day make a great movie for white people to feel guilty about and give an academy award to
and the story will revolve around a white journalist who ultimately realizes that wow, we’re all human
As darkness fell on Canfield Drive on August 9, a makeshift memorial sprang up in the middle of the street where Michael Brown’s body had been sprawled in plain view for more than four hours. Flowers and candles were scattered over the bloodstains on the pavement. Someone had affixed a stuffed animal to a streetlight pole a few yards away. Neighborhood residents and others were gathering, many of them upset and angry.
Soon, police vehicles reappeared, including from the St. Louis County Police Department, which had taken control of the investigation. Several officers emerged with dogs. What happened next, according to several sources, was emblematic of what has inflamed the city of Ferguson, Missouri, ever since the unarmed 18-year-old was gunned down: An officer on the street let the dog he was controlling urinate on the memorial site.
The incident was related to me separately by three state and local officials who worked with the community in the immediate aftermath of the shooting. One confirmed that he interviewed an eyewitness, a young woman, and pressed her on what exactly she saw. “She said that the officer just let the dog pee on it,” that official told me. “She was very distraught about it.” The identity of the officer who handled the dog and the agency he was with remain unclear.
Candles and flowers marking the spot where Brown died were soon run over by police vehicles.
The day brought other indignities for Brown’s family, and the community. Missouri state Rep. Sharon Pace, whose district includes the neighborhood where the shooting occurred, told me she went to the scene that afternoon to comfort the parents, who were blocked by police from approaching their son’s body. Pace purchased some tea lights for the family, and around 7 p.m. she joined Brown’s mother, Lesley McSpadden, and others as they placed the candles and sprinkled flowers on the ground where Brown had died. “They spelled out his initials with rose petals over the bloodstains,” Pace recalled.
By then, police had prohibited all vehicles from entering Canfield Drive except for their own. Soon the candles and flowers had been smashed, after police drove over them.
"That made people in the crowd mad," Pace said, "and it made me mad." Some residents began walking in front of police vehicles at the end of the block to prevent them from driving in.
this is the kind of fucking bullshit I’m taking about.
What the fuck yo
