I just got back from Lollapalooza and I had a TIME, y'all. Complete with hot Irish guys painting my face and letting me ride their shoulders. To quote my boo: Jeah!

...and I start my new job tomorrow morning.

That white privilege video was very good. I'm glad most of the people in the comments didn't get super offended.

NO! The only way you get it is if you LOOK white and you don't really go there about your blackness. It's called passing..which you know. I hate to say it because I'm one of those people that feel people should identify how they feel comfortable based on what they are..but that does not mean the world will look at a person based on how they identify..ESPECIALLY if you look black. If ya mixed with black and you look black..most just think of you as black. But hey you can say you are whatever the heck you want..LOL! But to everybody else..ya black.


Lol that's how I feel. I always feel like, if I say I'm mixed people will try and be like "oh you trying to deny your blackness" I don't know LOL, I'm cray cray, but I think someone said that to me once which is why I feel that way. Most times I just say I'm black, but I also realize if I say "I'm black" around someone who is white and they know me, they will say "no you're not you're mixed" and then I'll be like "okay but I'm still black so...."
I don't even know what I'm ranting about....
I used to work with a lady who looked black to me, perhaps biracial Idk. I think she was adopted by a white family. Some of my white coworkers told me one day the subject of race came up and someone said she was black and she got really upset insisting she wasn't black. And the white people were like "sorry, but you've got some black in you somewhere."

have you seen that true life with that girl that was mixed with white and black, and she only lived with her mom (white) and tried to tell people she was mixed with hispanic, I can't remember why she wanted to deny being black.

Anyway, she went on a date with this hispanic guy ( I think, it's been a while) and she told him whatever she was and he was like "uh...I don't think so".

I saw Ryan Bailey and had to pause. Bailey's my maiden name. But I would've remembered something that hot at a family reunion.

I just found out this lady has 2 kids in a private school (known in our city to be for the extra-extra-extra- wealthy that cost $25,000 per year) and another child in college.

Good Lord! All that money...they must be LOADED.

?? Does she owe you money or something?
More often than not if you have more than 1 child in private school you get a discount.

Nope, she doesn't owe me a single penny.

We were talking about private schools and the pros and cons of sending your child to one as well as the obvious financial obligations involved. She shared her and her children's experiences with those involved in the conversation (me included).
