'Y'ALL' IS MY FAVORITE WORD.
stfuconfederates: kerriheartsyou: tranqualizer: I will defend it till my death - and if you want to insinuate that its directly tired to my southernness, I’ll accept that and I’ll defend that too. folks don’t get that organizing, living, existing in the south is no fucking joke. so if you’re one of jerks that wants to believe that my saying ‘y’all’ or any other word that is indicative of my...

Anonymous asked: HOW ABOUT white people shut the fuck up and stop wearing dreadlocks because even if they weren't appropriative (which they are) they look really fucking stupid on white people. And white people have to put weird shit in their hair to make it do that. And you know what? White hair is really manageable, and you have a LOT of other options. So how about you give up this ONE THING that...

starvedforjustice asked: Can I just put in my two cents? For me, it's not even about culture, it's the fact that dreds are how a lot of black hair naturally grows. That's how it is. But when it's on black bodies, it's nasty and uncouth, but on white heads it's trendy. Nah. I don't like that shit. Nope. Get that weak tea outta here.

freeze-frame42 asked: I'll answer your stupid anons for you. Vikings did not have dreadlocks. They braided their hair. There is a very substantial difference between the type of braid the VIkings (and Celts, before someone says them) used, and dreadlocks.

Anonymous asked: mimejuice said: dude seriously no one gives a fuck, just shush and go home - Fact is african/black culture weren't the only ones who wore dreads, whites did too, at the same time if not before them. So you all need to get a history lesson before you think you're equipped to educate others

Anonymous asked: i'm the anon that posted the viking/dreads comment, to those replying, the fact that white people may not be thinking about the vikings is irrelevant to what I'm saying. lady atheist and others argue that whites wearing dreadlocks is stealing african/black culture.. which is hypocritical to say the least.

thisiswhiteprivilege: White privilege is acknowledging your privilege for being white, admitting that it’s shitty and undeserved, and doing nothing to address or combat it. What’s worse (and probably my favorite) is feeling “helpless” as though there’s nothing you can do about it, i.e. “what do I do?” and “I don’t know where to start!” I’m sorry, I don’t walk around readily-equipped with a...

Anonymous asked: My brother just told me he's Skype RPing as a black character. We're white, so I told him he shouldn't do that and he pointed out that I RP as a male character (I'm a cis-girl). I feel like the two aren't comparable, but I can't really explain to myself. Do you have any insight?

mia-the-wonder-slut: siri-rawrs replied to your post: I love it when white liberal feminists call… I hate when people get mad at others for wearing a kimono or war bonnet or whatever ethnic article of clothing. I think appreciating someone else’s culture is totally fine. As long as they aren’t mocking it, why is it such a problem? Because it’s not appreciating someone’s culture. If you really...

Anonymous asked: Do you think it's possible for feminism as a mainstream movement to ever get to the point where it truly addresses the problems faced by PoC, queer individuals, and trans* individuals? Or do you think that it's so rooted in putting the interests of white cis women first that it can never completely move past that? I want to believe that we can get to that point, but I'm fairly...

You “not meaning” for what you said or did not to be racist doesn’t all of a sudden make it ok. For example, let’s take Billy Crystal and his blackface impersonation of Sammy Davis Jr. at this year’s Oscar’s. I’m sure he didn’t intend for it to be racist, but the fact is it was. It was extremely racist for him to paint himself black and pretend to be...
