Racist white man attacks and spits on a defenseless African American female contractor for recording him going off on a tirade belittling her and the other employees…no male employees interviewed *chin rub* wonder why..was it his white male privilege???
Watch the whole clip.
Smh I bet no-one will reblog this… people not caring about black women is why homeboy thought he could get away with this shit…
SMH, this is why I need RADICAL FEMINISM so shit like this NEVER happens.
He needs his fucking teeth kicked in and needs to choke on them and needs his skull cracked opened and eyes removed with a power drill
Just wondering when the Tumblr Crackahood is gonna defend dude.
This makes me so sick. That man tried to assault her and he spit on her. And not a one of those other men tried to help that girl. This makes me scared as a black woman to live in the world in which I live. Seriously.
I am not surprised in the slightest that nobody came to her defense. She’s a Black woman after all. The people around her thought that she could handle herself and didn’t need any protection that’s that strong black woman stereotype
*sips invisible coffee*
I wanna point out one more thing. Near the end of the video, they make a really good point. Once that white man realized he was being filmed, that’s when he lost it. He saw her recording him, and he made a beeline for her ass. Why? Because he knew that had she not filmed this, not a soul would’ve believed her. White folks would’ve came out of the woodwork talking about how she was “playing the race card” and just doing this for “attention.”

This is a resource post for all the Good White Person™s out there. You know, the ones who say things like “It’s not my fault I’m white!

Okay. I agree. I’ve been socially conditioned not to notice racism and recognize my privilege. What can I do?I don’t care about this bullshit; you’re making a big deal out of nothing, go home and delete your blog:

Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. We love Him because He first loved us.

This important graphic is from Frontline, in reference to their new feature Endgame: AIDS in Black America…but after reading Kenyon Farrow’s review, it sounds like they could have done a better job telling the whole story of this crisis:
So imagine that the story of the War in Iraq was told through the stories of the Iraqis, who are describing the day the bombs fell, but the documentary hardly mentions George Bush (Jr or Sr), oil, or 9-11 as the excuse for US invasion? You’re left with a story that seems to be about the inexplicable and yet seemingly inevitable mass death and destruction, but is absent of history, political and policy contexts. You’d begin to wonder, why didn’t people just move out of the way when the bombs were raining out of the sky? Read more.
For those unfortunate souls that missed New God Flow, here it is. Brace yourselves for this greatness!

“A Toronto police officer violated Ontario’s Human Rights Code when he pursued, then pulled his gun on, an innocent black man driving home from work in a BMW, a tribunal concluded Friday. The Toronto Police Services Board and police officer Ryan Baker have been ordered to jointly pay Rawle Maynard $40,000 in damages “for injury to dignity, feelings and self-respect” in connection with the “harrowing” November 2005 incident.”
