“Well yeah but once I took a dump.. This Big”

“Now why would those two be spending time on that white people’s island?”

Because they’re phonies. Only “down with the struggle” when it suits them.

Jackson and Paul Ryan are related by marriage: Jackson’s husband has a twin brother, who is married to Ryan’s wife’s sister. Small world

Small world indeed. Jackson’s husband is related to all those Boston Cabots and Lowells. Oliver Wendell Holmes’s mother was one of those Jacksons.

“This is a special place for us, because, as you all know, this is where we come to enjoy being us,” Ms. Obama said Saturday afternoon at the Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival…

Now why would they hold an AA film festival in just about the whitest enclave in the country?!

Curious as to why such an accomplished man marry KBJ….

Government by a few, especially by a small faction of persons or families
what was the word for this? 🤔
