1. Yep, it's all the rage & #AliveWhileBlack

2. Girl, isn't EVERYTHING about them?

Including apparently discussions about police brutality and racial discrimination. It is a talent that some white people have and absolutely LOVE to flaunt. The ability to twist, distort and contort every single discussion about things that either have nothing to do with them or that they have the ability to fix but choose not to, into how it affects them.

4. Black America in the 21st century

Is a place where you're only a victim of racism, when a white person says you are. And with the GOP/TP followers and politicians rewriting the definition of racism, who knows what it'll mean 5 to 10 years from now.

6. That's easy to predict where it's headed ...

Racism: the act of offending a white person.
