  • Have a Samsung Phone? You Better Delete Your Nudes

    If you are like me, your phone camera roll likely has tons of selfies, food pics, random memes and a smattering of tasteful nudes. If in fact you are like me and your phone is a Samsung, you may want to go through your camera roll and make sure the pictures stored there are ones…

    Are y’all tired of white women calling the police or other authorities on black people yet? I know I am. Every time one of these stories comes up, I just want to look Becky in her eye and ask her what her damn problem is. They keep coming out of the woodwork too, like roaches.…

  • Rich White People Shunning Other Rich White People For Supporting Donald Trump Is Hilarious

    Alan Dershowitz is a white, Jewish defense attorney who is famous for having served on the OJ Simpson “Dream Team.” Seeing as we all know how white people feel about OJ being acquitted for the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, you would think that particular part of his personal history would be…

  • Take Off Your Shoes, Take Out Your Snacks: TSA Is Searching Everything

    I went to Las Vegas at the beginning of last month. I flew because the drive from L.A. to Vegas has become so long and tedious; it’s so not worth it. Going through Transportation Security Administration screening—or ‘TSA theater’ as I like to call it—is a(n) (un)necessary annoyance every time we travel. We have to…

  • Cardi B Really Is P-Popping Up the Charts

    Hey y’all, it’s me, the resident Cardi B stan at The Root. While your “queen”* spent her weekend generally being a jerk, wealth-shaming people and getting bloggers fired just for offering a valid critique of her work, my queen spent her weekend being pregnant and fabulous—and breaking records on the Billboard list. Not only did…

  • Lee Daniels Puts Some Respect on Damon Dash’s Name and Plans to Pay Him His Money

    Don’t let the release of Drake’s new album Scorpion distract you from the fact that Dame Dash walked up to Lee Daniels in the good seats section at the Hollywood Bowl, in the middle of a Diana Ross concert—as Ms. Ross herself was on the stage singing “Reach Out and Touch (Somebody’s Hand)”—and demanded to…

    Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) said in a statement Thursday that she has seen an increase in the number of threats made against her ever since she encouraged people to openly confront members of Donald Trump’s Cabinet in public spaces.

  • Sean Hannity Blames Maxine Waters for the Capital Gazette Shooting

    We keep talking about the dangerous rhetoric that is being thrown around by Donald Trump, those in his administration and the right-wing media that supports and enables them—but we keep getting shut down and told that we are the ones with the real problem, not them. Even as they deny peddling propaganda, playing dirty politics…

  • #PermitPatty Said She Only ‘Pretended’ to Call the Police. The 911 Recording Says … That Was a Lie

    You probably saw this headline and thought to yourself: “Another article about this woman? Again?!” The answer is yes. Another one. Because if you are a grown-ass white woman named Alison Ettel who either threatens, pretends to or actually calls 911 on an 8-year-old black girl for “selling water across from the ballpark” while “not…
