Hey, it's almost Mother's Day! In days of olde, this would mean churches were filling their pulpits with women, the one day of the year they consider allowing women to preach. It also means a whole bunch of men flooding social media with 1 Timothy 2:12, which reads, "I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she is to keep silent."

The short version: this is a bad use of this scripture.

White people: Can we talk about Dr. Martin Luther King for a minute? (Since today is his day and all.) Did you know that the week Dr. King was assassinated in Memphis, he had a national disapproval rating of 75%? Three out of every four Americans disagreed with his position and activity.

Systematic Racism as explained by Monopoly:

Let's imagine I host a game of Monopoly, but for some reason in this game, I make all of the black players skip two turns for every 1 they take, while all the white players get to play every turn. Let that game play out in your head. It's not hard to imagine that, an hour into play, the game is going to be wildly unfair. Now, is it possible that some of the white players will be doing poorly? Yeah, you can be bad at Monopoly even if the rules are in your favor.
