Slate article: I'm Not Your Racial Confessor
I didn't want to post this in the State of Blackness thread because this article is about white folks, or, more specifically, dealing (or not dealing) with their feelings. Care to discuss? (I'll just say right now I was AMEN-ing all through it...)
http://www.slate.com/articles/news_a..._of_trump.htmlHello, 2021. Glad to see you. Hope you're bringing us goodness and light this year!

Re: Slate article: I'm Not Your Racial Confessor
This hit home with me
Bouie: I am often asked for my advice or guidance on how to achieve racial healing, as if I have or have evinced any particular expertise. To borrow from Tressie, once you have attained some level of visibility as a black writer, there are people who think you become a kind of MLK surrogate.
I find myself avoiding discussions now - with white people - about Trump. One day however, probably in the near future, I know I will explode."The truth is, your natural hair, in all its texture, is the hair that is ideal for YOU.."
