+GO 👏 THE 👏 FUCK 👏 OFF. Also, the American educational system is trash. I applaud this child’s parents for giving her a voice and standing up against bias authority.
(Can someone caption this?)
Classroom full of mostly black and brown students:
Black student: [unintelligible—and then] …and then throwing everything away beneath it because it doesn’t pertain to you. I’m sorry —
White teacher: —you know what, I’m sorry -I’m sorry…
Black student: —No, no, no…I let you talk -I let you talk, you’re gonna let me talk.
[Other students gasps]
White student: Go ahead. Finish.
Black student: I’m sorry that this is the way that it is. You’re right, it is fucked up. But white people control everything…and that’s not fair. And when anybody, any other minority tries to say anything about it or change it, we’re complaining or we’re ungrateful or all this other stuff because we still have this or that. But then you say something about ‘Oh, I don’t want—there’s too many Latinos and there’s too many—’
White teacher: I didn’t say that—
[Various students disagree]
White teacher: I said I want to control the border!
Black student: You said you don’t want this to turn into a Latin country because there’ll be too many
White teacher: I did not say that.
[Various students disagree]
Student 2: You said you want to preserve the American culture.
Black student: There is no American culture. American culture is EVERYTHING.
[Various students agree]
Random: Mayonnaise!
[Students laugh]
Black student: And because you are white and so closed-minded, you refuse to accept that, you refuse to accept—
White teacher: Don’t tell me I’m closed-minded—
Black student: Everything you’ve said to me is closed-minded.
White teacher: Just because I don’t agree with you doesn’t mean I’m closed-minded.
Black student: You don’t need to agree—I -I’ve had conversations with people that don’t agree with me, but if they at least listen and try to accept—you’re not accepting the truth.
White teacher: Why do I have to accept what you think is right?
Black student: You need to accept the truth! Not what I think is right, what is actually happening right—
White teacher: Well, let me tell you what I think. You said white people have been in control of everything….who is the president of the United States right now?!
Students: A black man!
*Various sounds of incredulity*
Black student: WITH A WHITE CONGRESS! WITH A WHITE SENATE! WITH WHITE EVERYTHING ELSE! HE DOESN’T HAVE THE CONTROL OF EVERYTHING!
Random: GO OFF
Other Random: GO OFF–
*The class is in an uproar*
Random student: YOU ARE SO PRIVILEGED THAT YOU JUST DON’T SEE IT!
White teacher: Do we have to yell?!
Black student: Yes, because I’m mad.
Reblogging for the captioning. Thanks!
Sistar is one of the best senior groups in Kpop. Period. Rather than just gently touching on shady business, they flat out give protective advise to female rookies. They literally told IOI’s Kim Sohye ON AIR to not date yet because male seniors flock to rookies like fucking vultures. Every single member contributed:
“You have to be careful of men.” - Hyorin & Soyu IN SYNC
“When you’re a rookie, male seniors don’t leave you alone. Not all seniors are nice.” - Bora
“Don’t date them. The best thing to do is just stay home. I wish that you would just stay home.” - DasomThe fact that female rookies even have to be warned about this is fucking ridiculous. It’s gotten to the point where female idols just don’t care anymore about “being gentle” with words and image. I know that Sistar is well known for just saying what comes to mind, but this has always been a touchy subject in the Kpop industry and I’m so thankful that the ladies gave this advise while broadcasting. An idol hearing “don’t date” as a rule from the company is one thing, but hearing “don’t date” as advise from an experienced Kpop woman is a whole other level of “fuck, I really shouldn’t do that.”
The Kpop business is so fucking shady in this aspect and a lot of the older men just make themselves out to be disgusting creeps with young girl fetishes. They try to take advantage of the “rookie naivety” and the “rookie
submissivenessrespect” to seniors. “Oh, I’m a famous senior, she’ll definitely wanna sleep with my 30+ year old ass.”*endless eye rolls*I’m so glad that Sistar is the older sister group of WJSN and I pray to anyone that wants to listen that WJSN has been given this advise directly from Sistar. I hope this advise in engraved into their brain and the girls are ready to protect themselves.This whole post came from one small article I read, but it made me super ranty and now I can’t help but wonder how many times the girls have been hit on at this point, especially Cheng Xiao as of right now. I like to think that since there are 13 members, WJSN has teams or something that look out for one another. I wanna trust that the girls won’t fall for male senior bullshit (esp. you @94-95 line) but the fact that I don’t know makes me want to pull the girls into a hug and protect them with a knife. No one is going to fuck around with my kids’ emotions and or take advantage of them when my overly protective, motherly ass is still alive and somewhat well.

No offense but if one of your friends is excited about something & you make them feel stupid 4 being excited about it, you’re the worst type of person.

I cried twice today because of:
1. The Notebook
2. Make a guess (if you bother)
