The KKK (Karen Kalling Kops) Strikes Again

lmclemore23

Black people have to worry about multiple pandemics. COVIDism, white supremacy-ism, racism, Trumpism, Hotepism, Bronism vs. MJism, the list goes on. Karenism is also a pandemic that has grown, over the years, from the root of racism. We see it all the time. In parks, restaurants, neighborhoods. Black people, especially “thuggish” looking black men, are not safe from the horror of Karenism. And when Karenism unleashes its bacteria on Black America, it’s not a pretty sight. Quite horrifying, in fact, as fake tears and poor acting takes over as she…

As I sit here scrolling through the pages of my various social media feeds, I can’t help but to feel the sadness and anger associated with Black life in America.

Our blackness. Our right to just fucking be. We all have heard the stories. We all have seen the footage. We all have bore…

Ahmaud Arbery isn’t the first Black person to be hunted down and killed by white terrorist. We know about Trayvon because of the 911 call, as we know about Ahmaud because of the subsequent video. However, I know with my entire being that so many more Black people who have been found shot dead with no murder suspects, where killed by white supremacist.

Jogging While Black

Jogging is a cold-hearted b*tch. Well, I take that back. Cardio, in general, no matter what form it comes in, is a cold-hearted b*tch. Jogging is more of a passive aggressive asshole. However, once you do it for a while, jogging actually becomes therapeutic. And once you achieve some semblance of what is deemed as a “runner’s high,” a kind of internal bliss/tranquility sets in, even if the hardship of cardio is apparent. It’s weird, but again, it’s therapeutic. And when I jog, my guard is down. And why shouldn’t…
