451 Reasons I Should Quit Facebook
“What’s going on?” Montag had rarely seen that many house lights.
“Oh, just my mother and father and uncle sitting around, talking. It’s like being a pedestrian, only rarer. My uncle was arrested another time-did I tell you?-for being a pedestrian. Oh, we’re most peculiar.”

– Stumbled on this tidbit from Pat Buchanan while trying to find information about Black expats. Everytime I think maybe there is some common ground for people to talk about race I find out there isn’t. Or maybe I should thank G-AW-D that my ancestors have been enslaved, beaten, etc—because now...

°Obama is the Cosby-jello-pudding-pie-in-the-sky telelogical object for the mass of Black folks who still seek their piece of that capital.
AND

new york, a series of snapshots
The floor of the kitchen was an earth-mustard linoleum that was slightly sticky on the soles of our bare feet. There was a Formica table with a circle of chairs around it and the table was always covered in half-empty mason jars and half-full coffee mugs. Nearer the window was a card table holding up a coffee-maker and a pineapple. The window had bars over it, and never let the sun in right– it...
