Any writer who can’t even distinguish between the probable circumstances of the Brown and Garner cases isn’t worth our time.

“I am convinced that living in an unjust, bigoted society takes a psychic toll on all of us.”

Perhaps she is actually describing where she lives - in leftist utopia. Surely can’t be the country as a whole is bigoted - the country that elected BO twice, made Oprah one of the richest entertainers in the world, etc? Recommend immediate professional counseling for her to deal with her psychic disorder - which includes the projection of her innermost prejudices onto others / groups whom she has never met.

they evoke the broader issue of racial oppression in this country.

NOT racial oppression. It's the lack of black people who can actually do jobs that are available.

In late '70s, companies had to hire black people. The huge company I worked for looked high and low for qualified black people. We even had training programs, including programs on how to dress at work, how to SET AND ALARM CLOCK, etc etc, and we had some success. Our HR officer was black, he did his best and so did everyone else. But it was really hard filling those quotas.

It's an amazing site watching the crowded bubble these people find themselves in. So committed are they to narratives that no facts, or evidence that counter acts and debunks said narrative can break through. There is a different world outside the echo chambers of news rooms and liberal campuses

That’s right, you can’t have good race war if white people don’t start acting like black people. (/s kinda’)

Are you nuts? West Oakland is the hot new real estate market. That is part of her protest.

She’s a vapid dilettante.

If she really were worried about bigotry and the status of Africans she could move to Liberia and spend her life trying to help.

But shes a self centered fraud looking for a little politically correct publicity, thats all.
