Shredder meets the turtles
Warning: the comic you just read was kinda gross.
@ white people who think wearing eagle feather headdresses is just a costume and doesn’t offend natives, I was at a powwow yesterday and one of the dancer’s who was a war veteran accidentally dropped an eagle feather while dancing and we had to stop the entire powwow, the head man and some other elders had to stop and pray over the feather before picking it up. The guy who dropped the father gave a speech, while almost in tears, about how sorry he was to have dropped the feather and how it represented the choices he had to make in combat and the lives of people that were taken, and he ended up passing the feather on to another young dancer instead of keeping it because he felt so ashamed. This is how much eagle feathers mean to a lot of our nations, and that’s how important it is to native veterans. Wearing eagle feathers as a costume or without having to go through combat is disgusting and you ARE offending our traditions and values. Stop. You cannot understand the importance of our customs and you do not deserve to wear eagle feathers.
Here’s a secret for some of y'all: this post isn’t controversial.
She had the green light. He ran the red.
Everyone knows this, but media still tries to shift the blame to a black woman
I’m confused. Everything I see says the police faulted her for the accident. Now, we do know the police lie.
UPDATE: When this story broke, all the news I saw said Venus was “at fault” for the accident, citing this finding based on police reports. Now, TODAY, July 7, it is officially announced she WAS NOT at fault, and they have video to prove it. So they made a fault determination far too soon, without the facts, and had her ostracized. Her innocence in this won’t spread the same, and there will be so many people who think she is responsible for a death. This is so fucked up.
Called it right on the police lying.
YES YES YES
I love Zuri already! can’t wait!!!
This gotta bring awareness to things that really matter. Representation DOES matter! The only people think it doesn’t, are people that are represented plenty. There gotta be a lot of Black People in cartoons for kids, and it doesn’t take much critical thinking to see why. We need Black Educated Successful Pride role models here.
Yes, yes and yes
