Money is nice, but being able to speak my mind is better.
"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together."

Lolol! Well thank you! :D In that case I hope Field clarifies!
Hey Lila :-) Are you saying that you do not recognize former VP Joe Biden?
"Then he ran away from the reporters and forgot to sign it? Stop, you're killing me!"
-Doug in Oakland
Joe: Trump said Americans would get sick of "winning." Well, I guess we're sick of it already -- his approval rating's fallen 10 points in 3 weeks!
Oh thanks Faith! Just from the angle of the pic, I didn't recognize him! But yeah...now I gotta think up a caption :) tomorrow cos I'm going to sleep now...
"Hey, what say we get suite at Mar-a-Lago, get drunk on Vodka, put on Dr. Zhivago really loud, order tons of room service fruit, and send it all back every time demanding they re-peel and replace it! AHAHAHA!!!"
JMJ
Obama: Man, I am so glad you talked me out of getting Puerto Rican food tonight. I would have definitely regretted it.
Biden: I would have regretted it too if I had let you eat that shit.
No points for correctly guessing which one has the bigger dick.

You and me against the world,
Sometimes it seems like you and me against the world,
When all the others turn their backs and walked away,
You can count on me to stay.
Remember when the circus came to town
How you were frightened by the clown,
Wasn't it nice to be around someone that you knew,
Someone who was big and strong and looking out for
You and me against the world,
Sometimes it seems like you and me against the world
And for all the times we've cried I always felt that
God was on our side.
And when one of us is gone,
And one of us is left to carry on,
Then remembering will have to do,
Our memories alone will get us through
Think about the days of me and you,
Of you and me against the world.
Me and joe against the wingnut world shout out to Helen Reddy
And then he said if you need immunity you must be guilty!
And then James said he was writing a book! Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

2nd April 2017. Meters of wall built = 0.
This is not related to the picture of Barack and Joe, but I saw a funny quote yesterday that made me think of this blog's brainwashed, racist trolls:
"Ah, April 1st: the only day of the year that people critically evaluate things they find on the Internet before accepting them as true."
Brigade Fifteen never critically evaluates anything he finds on the internet that validates his prejudices and resentments.
He has dedicated his life to defending the interests of the oligarchy as dictated to him by their media.
He clings to false narratives about racism and Russia and false heroes like the FBI and CIA in the existential battle to dethrone Trump.
Obama: "I signed an executive order three days before leaving office, allowing CIA to spy on anyone applying for security clearance - WITHOUT a warrant!"
Biden: "You are going to jail!"
PC @12:09, your microphone almost fell on my foot.😀
He clings to false narratives about racism and Russia and false heroes like the FBI and CIA in the existential battle to dethrone Trump. You should be at war with your own stupidity.
-------------
And your dumb ass believes coal and horse and buggies are making comebacks and the effort to keep the oligarchy in power.
O: and then his supporters gave him an A.
bwahahahahahHhAhahahahaha!
Don't men wear ties anymore?
Fuck the gooks and chinks!
And then she said microwaves!!!!
Just think,we dont have to do nothing else for life!!!! Bwahhh!!!
Do you want to suck my cock....
Most people think we are straight.....
We stole so much money and nothing will happen to us......
