"These are sexy turtles."

"Do not call me a slutty unicorn, because... you don't have proof yet."

Prominent black lady news.

Booo.

I don't struggle with puzzles, except for why there aren't more colorful people on my television.

You're on notice, Kal Penn.

You're still on notice, buddy. But I do think Indians are cool. Especially that one up there. :)

This should not have been a debate.

My right to safety is not a discussion.

To put this into perspective, could you imagine if Kamau held a "debate" about New York's Stop-and-Frisk policy between asked a white male officer from the NYPD and a black male victim of police molestation? "We need the ability to continue verbally harassing people after we have physically violated their civil liberties. It's comedy!"

And Kamau was right about that moderator. What was up with that guy?

For all of the people who have ever asked, "Is it really worse for women on the internet than it is for men?", or, "Is it really worse for women in comedy than it is for men?", the unequivocal answer remains, "YES, OF COURSE IT IS!" Whenever a woman stands up and speaks, especially for the rights of women, she is immediately a target for attack, even when people agree with what she is saying.

For a big drop in the even bigger bucket of proof, here's a link to what happened to Lindy West after the "debate":

"And this letter was from Jackie Robinson!"

Poor Larry Dooby, er, Doby.

This is important because Jason Collins is a man.

"There's a reason it's "L", then "GBT".

That's what I've been saying, Janine!

I've never been to Harlem,

but I do know what the Harlem Shake is. Or more precisely, what the Harlem Shake is not. As do these people:

"I feel like they're trying to disrespect us."

"They're basically taking what we do...like, our dances, and making a joke of it."

"If you're going to make one of these videos, please do the Harlem Shake."

Happy Black History Month, readers!

"Who's that negro in a Cadillac?"

"...without slavery, Morgan Freeman wouldn't even have a last name! He'd just be 'Morgan'!" 

Thank you, again, W. Kamau Bell. 

Happy Black History month, readers!

That's how I feel about Lincoln!

 Also, this:

. . . white people get to have an astonishing cornucopia of wildly divergent stories all focusing on a million tiny facets of the white experience over the last few thousand years.

Black people get Roots.

Harumph.

"Hey, Representative Todd Akin."

"I have a question for you. If women can't get pregnant from legitimate rape, then how come there are so many light-skinned black people walking around Alabama?"

Because the rapists stole their cars. Obviously.
