Killer Mike Explains The Difference Between How Bernie Sanders & Hillary Clinton React To Black Lives Matter
Killer Mike, one of Bernie Sanders’ most outspoken supporters, gave a passionate speech in South Carolina explaining why, in his view, Sanders is the only candidate for black voters. At Claflin University in Orangeburg, South Carolina, Mike explained the differences between Sanders and Clinton by pointing out how each candidate reacted to being interrupted by Black Lives Matter activists. While Sanders allowed two activists in Seattle to take the stage and speak to the crowd on the microphone meant for him, Sanders smiled, shook their hands, and remained onstage to listen to their speech. When activist Ashley Williams held up a sign with a Hillary Clinton quote from 1996, in which she referred to black youth as “super-predators” and said “We need to bring them to heel,” they demanded an apology from Clinton for the remarks. Clinton said nothing when her Secret Service detail escorted Williams out, then said “Now back to the issues.” - Source
This is the funniest shit I have ever seen in my whole life
White boys ran towards the danger
^
I CAN’T FUCKING BREATH.
The best part is that I’d be running after these niggas too…Black people will always stop what they’re doing and run if they see other Black people running too. It’s in our DNA. We not dying by the same shit you running from.
my favorite scene in the whole tv history
the only sad thing about this scene being in picture form is that you can’t hear the way Garcia says “Quantico”. Kwan-tee-co.
u tell him marcy
fucking darrell
Russell Howard’s Good News s10e07
Taking a break from our usual creepy content, to show this powerful comparison. To top it off, I have a muslim friend who was told by his mother, “Never do anything big. The world’s not ready for you or anyone like us.”
This world needs to change.
my girl angie knows privilege and can acknowledge that its not “ooo i worked harder to get here and if some women work this hard they could be standing here too”
but more like “my opportunities are better because i was born into a position thats easier to get them and i acknowledge that that is unfair”
This is v important
Like, 90% of infomercial style products were designed by/for disabled people, but you wouldn’t know that, because there is no viable market for them. THey have to be marketted and sold to abled people just so that any money can be made of off them and so the people who actually need them will have access.
I think snuggies are the one example
almosteveryone knows. They were invented for wheelchair users (Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a coat on and off of someone in a wheelchair? Cause it’s PRETTY FUCKIN HARD.) But now everyone just acts like they’re some ~quirky, white people thing~ and not A PRODUCT DESIGNED TO MAKE PEOPLES DAY TO DAY LIVES 10000X EASIER.But if at any point you were to take your head out of your own ass and go “Hey, who would a product like this benefit,” that would be really cool.
This makes informational make so much sense now.
Like… of course there’s no reason for that guy to knock over that bowl of chips. However, the person it was actually designed for has constant hand tremors that would make this pretty rad, but since we don’t want to show that in a commercial, here’s an able bodied guy who can’t remember how gravity works.
Shit. Those commercials suddenly get a lot less funny when you realize it’s pretty much just people ineptly trying to mimic disability.
Or like the thing for the eggs? Like, oh, it cracks eggs perfectly, you only need one hand?
IT WAS DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE WHO ONLY HAVE THE USE OF ONE HAND.
Or the juice bottle pourer? For people who’re TOO LAZY TO POUR THEIR OWN JUICE? Or FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE DIFFICULTY BEARING WEIGHT IN THE HANDS.It’s amazing how with just a few words by a few people, my whole perspective on something can shift entirely.
