There's an entire category of ⚪ creators who would not have a large platform or any "original" content if they weren't siphoning off of Black culture, and the shit is starting to irritate me more every time I see it. They do our dances to our music, speak AAVE and use Blaccents because it gets them clicks, views, and shares.

It may seem completely innocent to some, but I recognize it as very problematic.

For Father's Day, I wrote about the time I found out my father was white and not Black like everyone else who lived in our house.

thegrio.com/2023/06/18/why… Because of the way we were raised, it never occurred to me that he was different, and that is a testament to just how all caps BLACK our household was.

Imagine following me on Twitter just so you can be a racist troll in my mentions.

This person has been stalking me for days now just to jump in and say racist shit any time me or one of my followers talk about anything related to Black people. Image Like you are truly dedicated to your craft.

Why do it from behind a fake, anonymous account?

Notice everything I say is under my real identity. I stand behind my words.

You are wearing the internet equipment of a hood and sheet spouting your racist bullshit.

You are a coward.

On to other things:

I sat down with Dr Armando Gonzalez and former NFL players Ricky Williams and Ryan Mundy to talk about mental health and healing the soul.

It was an amazing conversation.

andscape.com/features/ricky… Ricky was very open and honest about the struggles he went through as an NFL player and how that led to him trying to find healthy ways to cope.

You conveniently didn't capture the part of the article that says these numbers can be inflated due to the over-policing of Black people and the quickness to arrest them versus white people for the same crimes. But thank you for proving my point about how racism is systemic and institutionalized in the United States.

All the people doing that MOC car duping glitch in GTA lost like 200 cars or some shit when the new update, which patched the glitch, came out, and now they are all complaining to Rockstar and asking for their cars back. Ohhhhhhhhh. OK, I misunderstood. To clarify, the latest update in GTA took a lot of cars off the market, putting some of them behind a paywall (the new car club that's only for GTA + people) and making the rest only randomly available at some of the in game car dealerships and

Before I get started, let me be clear about one thing: All white people have white privilege. Whenever white privilege comes up as a topic, there are always white people who want to claim they don’t have it because they are poor or uneducated

The mother of the boy in the Sarah Jane Comrie video says no one bothered to seek out her son's side of the story.

newsone.com/4592993/sarah-… She has seen the extremely racist rhetoric directed at her son online. She is afraid someone will try to harm him or another member of her family.

Accountability is like kryptonite to whiteness.

thegrio.com/2023/05/23/acc… Have you ever noticed how white people are always all for accountability from others, but when it comes to accountability for themselves and their actions, they turn themselves into victims?

I wonder if Great Value Saul Goodman saw this as an opportunity to get some shine and fame for himself, and that's why he's doing this.

Like the way some of his actions seem to be doing more harm than good for his client, what if this is about uplifting his little law firm? Because considering I wrote the article that was the No. 1 Google result for her name, how did he not know who I was when I called and identified myself and the news organization I was writing for? How did he not do his due diligence on that if he was "suing" everyone?

I was very intentional with my language and wording in this piece because I took this situation very personally.

Citibike Karen has deleted all her social media accounts.

Don't hide now, bitch. Be as loud and proud as you were when you weaponized your white lady tears and screamed "help" to try and get those young Black men killed. Her husband is Tyler Comrie. He has now deleted his socials as well.

So here’s my thoughts on the “digital blackface” debate. I wrote this for @theGrio.

thegrio.com/2023/03/27/the… This is based off the discussion around the CNN article published Sunday that explains how using Black reaction memes and GIFs can be considered a form of “digital blackface.”

Y'all, there are only 4 episodes of @SnowfallFX left.

We might don't make it.

thegrio.com/2023/03/24/sno… I have so many questions, #SnowfallFX.

What really happened to Alton? What really happened with Peaches? Are we ever going to find out what happened with Lucia? Will Franklin get his money back? Is Teddy going to kill Franklin?

The next time a white person asks you, "Why do you have to make everything about race," please remind them that they started it.

thegrio.com/2023/03/21/whi… We get this question any time we speak about our experience as Black people in this country. The very people who benefit from the social and power construct of race always want to know why those who are marginalized by it talk about it.

Please forgive me, but I cannot remember who it was that asked me about the Trader Joe's Hearts of Palm pasta. I used it for the first time this week when I made spaghetti.

By itself, it does have its own distinct taste. I don't know how to describe that taste, but it's not a bad or terrible taste.
