@smalls2672@HunterBiden The answer is: MG was chosen because he was experienced and fair, but ultimately his actions for seeking Justice by the book and letter of the law proved to be held up at every possible juncture by Trump judges and the Sup Cours and hence justice was not ultimately achieved
When Tina emphasized that Beyoncé never needed to put anyone down to build a jaw-dropping legacy
"She never gossiped or put anybody else down, to make herself feel better. She never wasted her time on being jealous, she was taught very early on that her time and energy could be better used to focus on herself, to practice and perfect her craft. So she complimented others. and remained humble. She was inspired and respectful and paid homage to those great artists that came before her. She gave back to her community. She has never used someone else's name to get publicity or attention for herself. No one lives rent free in her head because she is obsessed with them or jealous of them., She has also NEVER constantly, criticized others looks, talent, and character. Has never lied on, or started false rumors about others, has never started one sided beefs with anyone, to get her name on mainstream media outlets or be relevant or in the current news. She chose to rely on her talent and hard work and her own name. But if she has helped you stay relevant or to get your name in the press. I'm very happy she could help you. You're welcome!"
That man is robbing us blind.
It hasn’t even been 2 full years.
By the time his term is finished, the US will have $4, no schools, no healthcare, no water, no clean air, no food, no economy, no chance lmao.
Just police officers, cancer, and AI data centers.
bell hooks said that White people will meet a Black person who completely challenges every racial stereotype that they have, but rather than giving up the stereotypes, they create a special category for that person and say, things like “Well, you’re not like other Black people”, instead of saying, “My ideas of Black people were too narrow”.
This is called “subtyping” and it leads to the survival of negative stereotypes because the new category individual who’s supposedly “not like the others” is mentally isolated from the group.
What this shows is that bigotry is all about protecting an existing hierarchy and it doesn’t matter much whether a person is exposed to other people or not. Which is why meeting intelligent, kind, accomplished, or complex Black people does not dismantle prejudice if someone is emotionally invested in keeping the stereotype intact.
Exposure to facts and figures doesn’t change the situation either. Someone can know the statistics on crime, education, poverty, or discrimination and still keep racial stereotypes because the stereotype preserves a sense of superiority and avoids confronting historical responsibility.
This is part of why bell hooks further argued that racism is emotional and ideological more than just purely ignorant, which is then why facts by themselves usually do not overcome a worldview that a person is motivated to preserve.
Reminder: the Capitol of the US was moved from Philadelphia, PA to Washington, DC because President Washington wanted to, in part, evade Pennsylvania’s Gradual Abolition Act which granted slaves freedom if they were in the state longer than 6 months. Washington would rotate his slaves from Virginia to make sure none of them stayed longer than 6 months so they wouldn’t be granted freedom. Also, they wanted a location to appease southerners who wanted a capital where slavery was accepted.
Remember that next time someone says “this is not who we are as a country” in response to racism cuz this is how we have been from the very beginning lmao
I’m an elder millennial. I’m never letting go of my emotional support denim jacket, gold hoop earrings, boomerang drink videos, 90s R&B, side parts, and peace signs in my pics. Fight me.
