“We had a get-to-know you powwow on the rooftop.”

Her new roommates were probably tempted to throw her off the rooftop before the powwow ended.

My blackness is not a secret I have to keep. I want to be able to publicly express my honest admiration for being black, outside of my little black planet.

Homegirl would probably lie down and die if a white person expressed his honest admiration for being white. How resoundingly stupid Miss Priscilla is!

Where does Salon find these idiots?

I don't know, but they are recycling their tired, race war articles. I read this several months ago.

Ohhhhh please. Why are you suppressing yourself?? Seriously, because some roommates weren’t following a news story you were???? You selfish brat. I can’t read this whole thing.

“Waaaah, I hate trying to be polite and kind!!!!!”

Look, be yourself, be real, but stop judging other people so harshly! I have spoken about a million current events to people and they didn’t know the event. Sheesh, she judges all white people by that, and then feels she has to hide who she is. I’m sure her roommates are busy with their lives and don’t care if she wants to play Aretha, fry her chicken, and move her head sideways on her neck. SO WHAT? Are you not going to allow your Chinese roommate to eat Chinese food if she wants?

We are all together on this planet. Be yourself but be gracious and polite! It isn’t that hard!!

Can you imagine spending time with these Salon people? Up is down, wet is dry, good is bad. I would imagine spending a dinner with these types would be the same as being covered with leeches in an Ebola ridden swampy hot slum. Just not very pleasant.

I continued to be dumbfounded at the way, for some white people, the killing of Michael Brown just didn’t resonate. They didn’t feel the need to pay attention.

The killing of michael Brown certainly did resonate with me

I saw it as one less thug on the streets robbing and intimidating the local population...

More like they ran out of new propaganda to pay for and had to recycle I think.

I just tried a couple of paragraphs from the article above, and ran it through that converter. Maybe I did something wrong, because it came out as follows.

“Whatâ€TMs happening in Ferguson?” one of my white roommates asked. “I heard some kid got shot or something like that.” The words clamored in my ears. How could he not know? Werenâ€TMt his Twitter, Instagram and Facebook feeds flooded with opinions and hashtags? Iâ€TMm sure he meant nothing by his statement. Weâ€TMre all ill-informed from time to time. But as I stood there, awkwardly not saying a word â€" while hundreds of words ran through my head â€" it was a reminder of how much I would have to suppress in order to get along with my white male roommates in our tiny four-bedroom apartment.

Q - Two good white people and the Tooth Faerie decided to cross a road. Which one made it first?

A - The Tooth Faerie. Everyone knows good white people don’t exist.

I agree with 100% that the “white roommate’s” ignorance was appalling.

What he should have told Prissy about Ferguson: “I heard that a huge, stoned, negro thug stole cheap cigars from a tiny old man in a strong-armed robbery, then attacked a policeman, and charged at him until finally put down with a head shot. Criminals spread a lie that the thug had his hands up, and gullible media ran with it.”
