rbrnmw's JournalI have no way to describe the hurt I feel right now.
I can't even get on Facebook or any other site defending this waste of oxygen. I hurt deeply for the Brown family. I just have no words right now except to say the Brown's and their supporters are in my thoughts and prayers.
It's official we live in an Idiocracy now.
Why Why Why???
Again how can white folks tell blacks folks what's racist and what's not?
this is posted in the African American GroupWe keep seeing white folk tell black folk White Privilege isn't real or they don't like the term. We see them defend blatant racism if it comes from a liberal like Michael Moore. They claim slavery wasn't the evil institution that it was and poor white folks had it worse. Where does any of this leave room for civil discourse?
Important eyewitness video has surfaced Michael Brown had his hands up
Reverend Al was talking about it tonight. It was a video that showed the eyewitness holding his hands up while saying He had his bleep hands up. He also said Mike Brown was saying okay okay okay. He also said the cop didn't tell Mike Brown to get on the ground. Of course the grand jury might not get it. I really wish they would assign a Special Prosecutor.
White Privilege is real and Slavery was EVIL!!!
How hard is that to understand? When you have self proclaimed progressives denying White Privilege and saying slavery made poor white folks the victim. How do you have any room for civil discussion?
All the Black History Books I've read are wrong!!!!
Slaves were resented by poor white folks because slaves had it so much better than white folks who were poor. I was told today. The racism is so blatant and ignorant these days. The person had "black friends" teach them this. Good Lord these people never cease to amaze me how low they can go.
willfull ignorance
What. can we do to educate someone who doesn't want to learn? How can we help them understand how important it is to be engaged and vote?
My Sisters
We must stay here if at all possible we can't let criminals and their band of misogynists run us off of DU. What happens to any feminist on here should be everybody's concern. I am still in shock over the rape and death threats. I am beyond disgusted. I hope whoever made the threats is apprehended and jailed. It is a crime to make such threats. To all my DU brothers who are supportive and understanding of feminist issues thank you so much, love and peace to you all.
67% percent of OWF cases in Ohio are child only cases (Welfare Reform Failure)
http://jfs.athensoh.org/documents/CenterForCommunitySolutionsreport.pdfIt's a long but sad read some have faced their 36 month time limit and left their kids with other people in order for them to get life's basic needs met.
I think welfare reform is a failure at least Ohio's model is.
