This is inspiring to young black artists who use “non traditional” approaches.
I don’t even understand why this is a thing. There are more brown women in the world. This shouldn’t be a new thing.
HBO’s Insecure has mastered the cinematographic art of properly lighting black faces. Diversity matters!
I want all of it. Your sleepy mumbling. Your drunken embarrassment. Your silly faces. Your anger. Your dance moves. Your anxiety. Your apologies. Your sadness. Your stern looks. Your claustrophobia. Your exasperated tone. Your frustrations. Your past. I want all of it. I want all of you.
Do not be mistaken; what is happening in Charlottesville, Virginia, is terrorism. Terrorism is the use of violence to further political beliefs. If a neo-nazi running several people over, killing and injuring them, at a alt-right rally, is NOT politically motivated, then I don’t know what is.
Do not go soft on nazis. Do not make excuses for their violent actions. The driver of the vehicle was fully aware of what he was doing, and that the only outcome that could come from running into a crowd of innocent people is injuring and killing innocent people. It was intentional, it was vicious, it was a result of his radical beliefs.
When a muslim man runs a truck into a crowd in London, the “president” is so quick to call it radical islamic terrorism, but the second a nazi does the same thing, silence.
Call it what it is. This isn’t a protest.
