Activist Demands Reparations for All 'Fat, Black' Women
National Review ^ | June 10, 2016 | Katherine Timpf

Ashleigh Shackelford says she's owed everything from housing to free Beyoncé tickets.

According to a piece on an "intersectional feminist media" website, "fat, black" women are owed reparations due to the "trauma" that comes with being one.

"The case for reparations for fat Black b****** is: f*** you, pay us," self-described "queer, agender Black fat femme writer, artist, and cultural producer" Ashleigh Shackelford writes in a piece for Wear Your Voice.

What kind of reparations? She makes sure to clarify that, too:

Let me be clear, though: when I say, "F*** you, pay me," I mean, "F*** YOU. PAY ME." Pay me a check, pay me consistently, provide me safe housing, offer me a job with benefits, run me those Beyonce tickets, finance my clothes and wigs and aesthetics, cultivate accessibility to spaces and provide seats that fit me, see and validate my humanity.

Shackelford insists that these reparations are well-deserved, because "[t]he intellectual, emotional and actual physical labor fat Black b****** provide is actually invaluable to the entire world."

She could lose 10 lbs. of ugly just by cutting off one of her fingers.

Perfect ticket - Hillary on top, she at the bottom. Or maybe they will switch it around.

Even Laz wouldn’t hit that toxic tub of seething resentment and entitlement.

I say that Laz most certainly would. He'd have shade in the summertime, and stay warm in the wintertime.

All that Ashleigh Shackelford needs is some good ol' Laz-Lovin'!!!

Isn't that right Laz?

***Why did National Review even pay attention to this bimbo?***

National Review is now a comedy magazine.


After the recent tragic loss of life, the janitors are running the place...

How is anyone surprised by this? For generations the official motto of African Americans has been “I’m black, gimme money”.

"cultural producer..."

The only 'cultures' this cow produces are found under all those rolls of fat. There's probably enough Mycobacteria smegmata in there to stock every microbiology lab from here to Singapore.

Silly bovine needs to find a treadmill and get a job.

All 'Fat, Black' Women

This is getting very close to a redundancy.

"F*** you, pay me,"

F*** you, NO!

You'll have to kill me; but I'll kill you first. Decide.
