Beautiful

The fetishization of “opinion” and “free speech” is horrifying, people thinks it means they can saying anything anywhere without ever being criticized or held accountable or disagreed with regardless of their education on a subject.   

My friend just fucking destroyed her Aunt on Facebook

OK WHITE GIRL YOU BETTER DRAG AUNT BOOTSIE!!

Ain’t Bootsie didn’t know she was coming for that drag, but damn if she didn’t get it.

Can we all agree that the ‘All Lives Matter’ crowd are fucking enemies?

wow…

of course they throw down the peace sign too cause they think it will somehow make it seem like they were doing this with a good intention and no hostility. 

This happened at my school (UMass Amherst). The Black Student Union fixed it, and they did a great job:

YES!!!!!!

Yesss

Myths on black people that actually apply to white people

Lmao can’t stay clean

Own guns

Have crack babies

Live off food stamps

Stop slandering our name 2015

The fucking truth. The. Fucking. Truth. Gentrification is such racist fuckery. You discriminated against Black people for centuries. Refused them mobility. Stuck them in areas where you did not invest in infrastructure, school, roads, business or anything else. Took their taxes and funneled it to richer neighborhoods to take care of their shit. Overpoliced them using brutal tactics. Even trafficked drugs into their neighborhoods. Nevertheless they rise above it, create something special, unique and lasting out of less than nothing and now that it looks pleasant to your eyes, white people want to come into said neighborhood, take it over, kick all the Black people out, tear it down, destroy everything Black people built and bleach the fuck out of the area. Fucking pigs.

Gentrification is colonialism literally

^^^^

AHHHHHH 😍

A white: but saying Asians are naturally smart is POSITIVE discrimination:)))

Me: The model minority myth was invented by whites as a tool of antiblackness to create divisions between communities of color and prove that ‘anyone can succeed in America if they just TRY hard enough!!1!’ thereby implying that antiblackness is black ppl’s own fault for not TRYING enough. Additionally, it relies on false interpretations of data and hurts the opportunities of all Asians, particularly less privileged ones, and dehumanizes Asians by furthering stereotypes of us as some kind of innately robot-like monolithic-minded hive, devalues our individual accomplishments and uses us as a tool to further antiblackness

almost forgot to add that it is also used to pretend that racism against Asians isn’t real or doesn’t happen anymore.

Very true.
