This Week’s Game of Thrones Was a Replay of Every Black Fight Ever
Wait … was I the only person in the Seven Kingdoms who thought this whole let’s-capture-a-White Walker-and-bring-him-back plan was the stupidest idea since the male romper? (No, that is not a homophobic or gender-normative statement. The male romper is a shitty idea, and by “shitty,” I mean that the good Lord has only blessed me…

3 Facts That Prove the Reality of White Supremacy
When I was 16 years old, my entire family thought my little sister was going crazy (and by “sister” I mean my cousin who lived with us because black people do that, which could be the subject of an entirely different article). Every morning, she would tell us that there was a monster under her…

America Would Rather Topple Statues Than White Supremacy
I knew it would happen this time. As soon as White Supremacy Woodstock happened in Charlottesville, Va., I was certain it would open a dialogue about race, racism and white supremacy in America. There wasn’t a doubt in my mind that the terrorist attack this past weekend would force the country to address this evil…

The Complete List of Racists
I believe in fairness. That’s why I would never stoop so low as to defame a member of the Ku Klux Klan or a Nazi. When I refer to Klansmen, I call them “micropenis fuckwad cowards,” as opposed to neo-Nazis, who are correctly referred to as “feebleminded gaping anuses.” I also believe that instead of…

The Most Beautifullest Thing in This World Is This Scared White Boy Stripping Off His White Supremacist Uniform
What do the hip, cool white supremacists wear when their white hoods and Ku Klux Klan robes are at the dry cleaners stained with Negro blood and it’s too hot at the rally to wear those thick, wool Hugo Boss-designed Nazi uniforms? Simple. They wear the widely accepted costume recommended by 4 out of 5…

Yes, Anti-Fascists Are Violent … and Necessary
When Donald Trump said in a press conference that “many sides” were responsible for the white supremacist melee in Charlottesville, Va., on Saturday, he was right. Neo-Nazis have an entirely different belief system uniform than the Ku Klux Klan. The swastika is a totally different symbol from the Confederate flag. Skinheads shave off all of…

Look at This Picture. This Is America.
The only difference between Heather Heyer and Deandre Harris is that Deandre Harris is alive. They were both in Charlottesville, Va., protesting against white supremacy. They were both victims of white supremacist terrorist attacks. Heyer was killed Saturday when authorities say James Fields drove his car through a crowd of counterprotesters during the convention of…

Michael Bennett Sat During the National Anthem Because He Loves America
My mother loves Michael Harriot. I know this, not because she has told me thousands of times, but because she has loved me. She kisses me on my cheek. She hugs me tighter than Young Thug wears his skinny jeans. We have long, meandering phone conversations. She praises me for every little thing I do…

For Black People Who Have to Deal With White People This Week
Bruh (and when I say “bruh,” I don’t mean it in a sexist, gender-erasing way. I mean it as an introductory phrase, like how people from Florida start their sentence with “Fam,” or people from New York start their sentences with “Son” and end them with “B.” Or how people from everywhere start their sentences…

Game of Thrones Shows Us How America Treats White Supremacy
Every time I watch an episode of Game of Thrones, I am left uttering the same phrase as the proverbial man who believes the thermos is the greatest invention of all time because it keeps hot things hot and cold things cold: “How do it know?” Indeed, how do it know? How does “Dem Thrones”…
