Cornell West is like the Canibus of black scholars.

Going after the new hotness in Black Race Hustling™ in order to keep his name relevant!

I still have respect for Dr. West's accomplishments, but I have to speak honestly - his actions over the years have done a lot to take the shine off him as a person.

LTTP but i just started watching DragonBall Z Kai this weekend.

So this is the abridged version of the show, and it still took 40+ episodes before i finally see a Super Saiyan on screen. Also, holy shit at dragging out that Frieza fight. We spent almost 10 episodes waiting for Goku to get out of the regen bath or whatever, then a whole episode for him to charge up a Spirit Bomb. Like.....WTF??

(I prefer shorter Anime)

You do realize this is a show with long arcs right? lol And its based on a manga so the pacing is gonna be drawn out as well.

bitch I'm taking calls.
I imagine Cornell West wakes up every morning shouting "Obama is a fraud!!".
Throws open his windows to announce this like Scrooge in A Christmas Carol.

I can't complain about that because in the original run every confrontation took at least 15 episodes before someone threw a single punch. That and re-using that generic "trading blows quickly" animation was so bad I'm surprised DBZ held my attention as a child.

Did things change for West after he was in that Matrix movie? I seem to remember him talking some off the wall stuff in interviews afterwards.


I'm kind of mad I missed Evo this year

Dude, I can't play any of those games but find myself watching every year. Same with the DOTA2 event.

Preach, someone would have to put a gun to my head to get me to watch the series over again.

I don't know why people feel the need to say all lives matter. Then he goes extra hard and says white lives matter lol. It's unnecessary, but folks still need to throw that out there. I'm not expecting any of these candidates to pander to us this time around. Yall better be ready for it.

Apparently he thought it was a good line and people misheard him. I feel bad for him, honestly.

I dunno. I'm relatively new to anime. I don't see why an arc needs to be dragged out from now till Kingdom Come. DBZ is not the only culprit.

There is no reason. That show is a base level of trash with some redeemable traits
 
I still don't believe that any of those Hillary is 44 people were actual democrats.

You may be right. Many of them could have been Republicans or Independents who just wanted a woman president, or who were just trolling. In any case, we might end up with a white liberal freakout when PoCs say, "I am still researching the candidates" or "I haven't made my mind up yet".

All the cheating threads in OT reminded me that a Black writer who directed a softcore cuckold porn drama put a bunch of cuckold symbolism into a Nick show.

I gotta find the image for it later, it's pure fuckery.

To be fair I don't actually believe that he's doing this on purpose, he didn't create the show. But the coincidences are pretty damn funny imo.

I've seen a couple of stories on GAF about Nickelodeon fuckery so who knows? Off the top of my head I remember this one thread about this Nick show and the creators obsession with little girls feet. I think it was the show "I hate America" Grande was on.

Local purple drink design on the can got changed and freaked me out. I usually move out before major changes such as this take place.

I already know that I'm going to regret posting in that black lives matter interrupts Bernie Sanders thread but I couldn't help myself.

I think there is a decent discussion happening. Get in there and speak your mind, people.
Decent by gaf standards but so much of what's in that thread is coming from a place where people either don't see racism as an issue, don't understand the nature of protest, or speaking from colorblindness which makes the topic more excruciating than it should be when you mix that in with the usual internet snark and people not reading things to well.

Sup y'all
How was Evo for you dawg

What that Sanders thread is telling me is that his supporters don't really want him to actually win. I don't understand how being so dismissive of a Democratic constituency is going to get them to vote for him.

These dudes really are the new Ron Paul supporters.
 
Ok, I may have to pull out of that thread. Compared to jmood, I'm just turning it into a pissing match (one of the posters seems to really want to gaslight me out of the convo).

I'm pretty much done. Like every discussion on race here, people bring up some non-sequitor shit and demand you respond, then ignore what you say.

Edit: Yup, I'm out. The last post in there completely killed any desire to continue with that shit. These people think that we need to basically applaud politicians like Bernie Sanders at all times and not hold them accountable. "Hey guys, they threw you a bone so shut up".
 
If dems don't win the white house in 2016 because of lower black turnout I can see a firing squad happening between factions.

If it's one thing the gop always had it right was dems taking the black vote for granted

And of course black people will be blamed. Not people saying shit like this.

(I'm putting it in a spoiler tag for those who don't want to see this fuckery)

If he isn't...who is?

How bout the BLM people write to Bernie Sanders in mass, or hashtag or however people correspond and ask him to do a series of speeches, postpone his stump speech, on issues at the forefront of black lives.

If the black community isn't moved by his stump speech...they should host him where he can speak to their concerns...but since he just tried to fucking do that this past weekend and he was talked over numerous times...maybe you should start your campaign to get him to speak to in-depth black issues with an apology.

"I'm sorry for the way you were treated at NN. We at [name here] have a legitimate host and love that you've fought for the black community and black lives your entire life, even when it was not popular to do so. Please we'd love to learn more about you and your in-depth plan to improve the lives of black people all across this nation. Thank you."

Man, it is Ron Paul all over again.
