But in many ways, they still represent a microcosm of the black community at large, within which respectability politics and expectations that black women stand in solidarity with black men in the quest for racial justice make the conversations surrounding gender and sexual violence particularly fraught.

Hey Black Dudes. You want to know a real simple way to gain some of that respectability? It's pretty easy, actually.

STOP RAPING PEOPLE.

Pretty ladies, btw, I don’t mind the big image because at the link you can’t zoom in. Anyway I do hope they find husbands worthy of them. That any black man could be so unappreciative of their drive and self-discipline is mind boggling, considering the social pathologies they’re up against. Guess they feel their manhood is being upstaged. They’re probably right.

They looked around for a convenient whitey to blame and found none.

What do you say to the conservative blacks on this site for your racist comment? How about the blacks that read FR hoping to find a place in conservative?

You need to check your shit.

Thank you I inserted 25% in both width & height in your formula < img src =”” height=”25%” width=”25%” >

(I also inserted extra spaces so it would show up for others)

Did you sleep through your journalism classes on selection of type? All caps is much less readable (less able to communicate) and on the internet, it is considered yelling.

If you have something to communicate, keep your emotions in check, and present your material in the most effective way possible. Or if you prefer, rant in all caps to blow off steam.

It is usually better to specify just the width so that the image isn't distorted. Your computer will quite happily figure the correct value for the other dimension. Remember that the percentage width/height is that of the enclosing container, not necessarily the page width/height.

Your sensitive ears got so offended by the commonly used word "shit" which is in everyone's vocabulary, yet disparaging blacks in open forum is OK? Is that your position?

You are a despicable RACIST.

Well, I think I will only use the height & width justification things if the original photo seems to big! LOL

Nope, your Black Lies Matter crowd are the racists. Now run crying to your buddy Barry and see if he’ll have a beer with you because your safe space was invaded by a microagression.

You people will call me a racist cracker no matter what I say or do, so I’ve given up political correctness. If you can’t take the truth, stick your fingers in your ears and hum loudly. Or ask Merkel for asylum. Because the Race Card has no credit with me.
