      The resistance is getting under Trumps skin and he is even losing some supporters due to a lot of religious groups who send relief or sponsor refugees. Remember most people are good and love people of all nations and persuasions! Don’t get depressed or overwhelmed! Thats what they want. Come together! Fight!

      IANYN going on my watch list.

      could someone recommend good documentaries on freedom fights of black people?? i would like to learn more and since i live in a white country, i do go to the states, but you can not really ask a black person about it, if you are not close to them.

    I’m begging anyone who isn’t familiar with James Baldwin, please read his work, please watch his interviews. He was an amazing human being.

  3. Diana B says:

    That was really powerful. Damn!

    Eh that’s not really crazy demanding for an assistant especially for Hollyweird. Id done stuff for my bosses that was not in the job description and one even had me lie to his wife when he was at lunch with his gf…i hated it but eventually found a better job. Ive also had to do lunch runs and snacks for another boss but she was super nice and would buy me food as well. It’s part of the job of assisting
    ..also i was not paid close to 70k so yea where do i apply???

    Imagine being outspoken about both being black and being gay at that time. Even today over 50 years later, it will make you extremely unpopular if not outrightly put your life at risk.

    I Am Not Your Negro,
    97% Rotten Tomatoes
    95% MetaCritic
    4.8/10 IMDB which accepts user rankings and also notes who voted what score.

    Interesting that males under 18 all voted 1/10 for this movie. ‘interesting’. And that the US ranking is significantly lower than the international ranking.

      That IMDB rating is scary. The future looks bleak.

    • KiddVicious says:

      “Interesting that males under 18 all voted 1/10 for this movie.” I’m hoping it’s because there are no fast and furious cars, which teen boys seem more interested in than social events, or even current events, and not that there’s a new generation of Bannon/Trumps.

      I know when I was a teenager I wanted movies to entertain me. School was for learning, movies for entertainment and making out with my boyfriend.

    Why did Beyoncé pregnancy announcement make me scream? I’m really in shock y’all.

    When I first saw the trailer it really gave me chills.

    • Jess says:

      I just came here hoping they had a post up, I NEED to comment on that picture she used to announce it, lol.

      • Mel M says:

        Me too! I don’t understand it at all lol. Like was she like I want flowers and just a bra and some ruffle undies, with a veil.

      • PrincessMe says:

        Ha! It’s definitely an interesting picture. I had to double check that she really released that pic and someone didn’t photoshop it or something.

      • KiddVicious says:

        I know! Was Sears Portrait Studio having a special?

      • Ayra. says:

        I thought it was photoshopped at first haha

    • Moneypenny says:

      Bey is always trying to copy me when I’m pregnant :).

      So many questions about that image. She’s showing us a belly so there is no pillow talk, that’s for sure.

  12. QQ says:

  14. OriginallyBlue says:
