To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

According to IMDB she hasn't worked on the Price is Right since 2011. Also, if she posted that, she's since removed it, as it's not on her Twitter feed now.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

I'm not sure what the Hope Vinitsky thing is supposed to be.  That's not what Twitter posts look like when I see them.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

WTF. As if black farmers had it any better during that period?
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

You're missing the point, Habs. The point is that if there's such a thing as White Privilege, then clearly there can be no White Poor.

Duh.  :wacko:

I doubt the person who created this little bit of propaganda realized this, but these are victims of centuries of slavery.  Slavery really fucks up your economy, while blacks suffered the most the poor buckra didn't do so hot either.  And because the political and economic leaders pitted blacks and whites against each other, there was little progress for either class.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

The shitty photoshop cropping might be even more offensive.

If there are specific things Mao, Hitler, Stalin, and Ocasio-Cortez are promising that nobody else ever has promised in the history of the world that inevitably lead to genocide, it would be nice to know what these things are.
