• Trump’s Presidential Address: The Wypipo Speech

    Apparently, black people are racist. I didn’t know I was a racist until recently, but luckily, the great people of white America took their long history of racial awareness and benevolence toward people of color to show us the light. Lately, the jujitsu of reverse racism has manifested itself in the ugliest, most virulent form…

    The Donald Trump Presidential-Speech Drinking Game

    If you’re anything like me, when Donald Trump addresses a joint session of Congress tonight, it will be very difficult to watch (especially if, like me, you initially thought “joint session of Congress” referred to a little-known constitutional amendment that required representatives to pass a blunt around the House chamber). Luckily for you, we here…

  • Everybody Hates Trump (Except White People)

    This morning—and every morning since Jan. 20—if you turned on your TV, you were likely to hear pundits and experts talk about how Americans are fighting against, upset with and resisting the presidency of Donald Trump. (It has been a month and I still dry-heave when I say it.) The consensus from every media source—including…

  • Remember Trayvon?

    Remember Trayvon? He would’ve been 22 by now. He more than likely would have graduated from high school and entered college by this date. If he studied hard, maybe he would have entered an Ivy League school, graduated from Harvard and entered the spaceflight-training program during his downtime between law school classes. I’m sure there…

  • TrumpPets Are the White Hoteps

    You’ve seen them before. Maybe you dated one because you liked the way he called you “king” or “queen,” before he chastised you for wearing your skirt too short, putting lye in your hair or—and, no, I’m not kidding about this—getting so far away from your African roots that your body does unnatural, Eurocentric things…

  • Google Just Dropped $11,000,000 to Make Sure #BlackLivesMatter

    Of course, the company didn’t phrase it that way because it would have to spend another $11 million cleaning up all the mess from the white people’s heads that exploded. But according to USA Today, Google just pledged $11.5 million in grants and funding to help organizations fight racial bias. Specifically, Google’s philanthropic division wants…

  • The 10 ‘Wokest’ Athletes of All Time

    If you, too, are going through withdrawal during “Cold Turkey Week”—the seven-day period when there is no NBA, NFL or baseball, and the NCAA tournament hasn’t started—then I’m sure you’re searching for something to quench your thirst for sports. (And if you’re thinking I could just watch hockey, shut the fuck up. I’m black. White…

  • Maybe the Earth Is Flat

    This past weekend during the National Basketball Association’s All-Star festivities, Cleveland Cavaliers basketball star Kyrie Irving appeared on the NBA podcast Road Tripping With RJ & Channing and said, “The Earth is flat. The Earth is flat. … It’s right in front of our faces. I’m telling you, it’s right in front of our faces.…
