Maryan Hashi remembers the thoughts running through her mind when she began hitting the ski slopes in northern Sweden. As a Black woman from Somalia, she felt like an “alien.” “Am I wearing the correct clothing for this? Does it fit? Do I look weird? Am I snowboarding correctly? Do they think it’s weird I’m on the slope?” she said. “But I carried on — I felt if I didn’t, I was never going to commit to anything in my life.” A few years later, snowboarding is the 30-year-old student’s big passion and it is helping her integrate into her...

The clip begins with Wu, who was born in China, saying, 'I always tell people, the day the Latino, African American, Asian and other communities realize that they share the same oppressor, is the day we start winning.' 'Because we are the majority in this country now,' the congressman continued. 'We have the ability to take over this country and to do what is needed for everyone, and to make things fair, but the problem is our communities are divided - they're completely divided.'

At least one aspect of US higher education is shifting back toward sanity: The Supreme Court has successfully killed blatant racial quotas in college admissions, a boon to all students. Yes, lefties are dismayed that black and Latino enrollment is down at the highest tier of American universities, but that ignores serious good news: Academic “mismatch” is over as students of all races are now going to the schools they are best qualified for. The Hispanic and African-American teens who no longer get waved into Yale or MIT don’t simply sit at home or take a burger-flipping job; they head...

It was a story that received blanket media coverage in March 2021. It alleged that white middle schoolers in Plano, Texas, viciously "tortured" SeMarion Humphrey, their black classmate, forcing him to drink their urine at a sleepover as they shot him with BB guns. A Black Lives Matter activist group charged the local public school district with doing "nothing" to stop "this racially motivated hate crime" as violent protests broke out outside the home of Asher Vann, the white child alleged to have organized the brutal attack.

They welcomed a little girl into their family nine months later - but soon suspected that IVF Life - which operates as the Fertility Center of Orlando in Longwood - made a shocking error. Both Score and Mills are white, but the baby had the 'appearance of a racially non-Caucasian child,' according to the lawsuit against the clinic, per News6.

The BBC must stop box-ticking casting that 'shoe-horns' ethnic minority actors into period dramas, a review has urged. In a damning independent report into the corporation's content, the BBC was also told it needs to improve coverage of the working class and women over 60 if it is to keep engaging audiences. The broadcaster has been conducting 'preachy' diversity casting in a string of its dramas, resulting in ethnic minorities ending up in inappropriate settings, the review found.

Former First Lady Michelle Obama has urged people to be “mindful” when buying from white-owned clothing brands. During a recent interview clip circulating on social media, Obama says she actively tries to buy clothes from people of “color” in order to “make it a point.” Last year, she claimed that Americans did not show her and her family “grace” because of their skin color, despite the fact her husband was elected in a landslide.

The guide says, '85 to 90 per cent of cousin couples do not have affected children', and adds: 'Pakistani women in cousin marriages have been found to compare favourably to those in non-relative marriages'. It argues that 'marriage within the family can provide financial and social security at the individual, family and wider kinship levels'. The risk, says the guide, are 'exaggerated' and there has been an 'unwarranted, narrow focus on close relative marriage'.

Deshawn Suggs, 18, was discovered inside a vehicle around 4am Saturday in San Antonio with an apparent gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead at the scene. 'We have these parties, teen-adult parties, at these random properties, these abandoned properties, that ultimately lead to gun violence.'

Three academics analyzed Oscar-nominated animated films from 2016-2024 using a racism test they developedThree professors argue that animated Hollywood films promote White privilege and "racist cultural narratives," according to their new academic analysis. Natalie Khazaal, director of the Middle Eastern and North African studies programs and associate professor of Arabic at Georgia Tech, Ellen Gorsevski, associate professor at Bowling Green, and Tobias Linné, head of the communication department at Lund University in Sweden, recently co-authored a paper lamenting racism and White privilege in Hollywood animated films. The analysis, published Jan. 6, is titled "Media Analysis of Racism and Speciesism (MARS)...

Soon after Eric Holder was confirmed as Barack Obama’s attorney general in February 2009 he gave a speech to his new employees in honor of Black History Month. It proved memorable. “Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot,” said Holder, “in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards.” In February 2023 Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams showed that not all white Americans were afraid to speak about race. On his podcast, “Real Coffee with Scott Adams,” the soft-spoken Adams delivered a droll, only...

Such a coincidence that so many European churches are being burned to the ground. They should install more extinguishers.

The mayor of San Francisco discreetly approved a bill to create a fund that may eventually grant each of the city's eligible black residents $5 million in reparations. Mayor Daniel Lurie quietly signed the incredibly divisive Reparations Bill just two days before Christmas. The ordinance establishes a Reparations Fund, as recommended by the city's African American Reparations Advisory Committee (AARAC) in its 2023 report.

'I want to pay tribute to Alaa's family and to all those that have worked and campaigned for this moment,' Starmer said. 'Alaa's case has been a top priority for my government since we came to office. I'm grateful to President Sisi for his decision to grant the pardon.' Per his X Acct: “ I Fu&$ing hate white people, they don't understand sharing or community. a blight on the earth they are. good thing they stopped breeding.”

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is facing intense backlash for making racially-charged comments about Hispanic Americans serving with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Bass, a Democrat, was speaking with CNN’s “The Situation Room” on a recent network feature that profiled Border Patrol and ICE agents training to work along the southern border. CNN noted that a large percentage of recruits were of Hispanic heritage and at one point asked whether they had any reservations about apprehending their “own kind.” “They didn’t come in the right way so they aren’t my kind,” one recruit said without hesitation. Border Patrol Agent...

Los Angeles Democratic Mayor Karen Bass expressed disappointment and concern Friday with Hispanics joining Border Patrol – arguing they’re only doing it for the paycheck. “Well, in a way, I think it’s sad,” Bass said of a CNN report on Border Patrol’s new recruits, many of which are Hispanic. “I think that those Border Patrol agents are going to have a difficult time when they’re out in the field and they see what actually happens in real life separate from their training,” the mayor told “The Situation Room” host Wolf Blitzer. The report Bass was asked to respond to included...

I almost forgot Kwanzaa even exists, because the only person I’d ever really heard talk about it was Ann Coulter, and she seems to have dropped off the face of the planet—and there are so few people who actually even celebrate it. As a child in school, I vaguely recall a teacher reading some picture book about it and all I remember is the African garb and maybe some candles.Anyway, it was Coulter who actually provided more than just colorful pictures in a children’s book, explaining the relationship between Kwanzaa and anti-white attitudes and Marxism:[Ron] Karenga’s invented holiday is a...

The fate of Rita Loncharich underscores how moonbattery-induced societal decay has left us safe anywhere. Via Fox News: Police in Florida are investigating after a 65-year-old woman died from stab wounds she suffered inside a Barnes & Noble bookstore in Palm Beach Gardens. Witnesses told police that the suspect, 40-year-old Antonio Moore, ran out of the store after stabbing Loncharich… According to the Palm Beach Gardens Police Department, “Investigators are still trying to determine a motive for this attack.” They should ask Decarlos Brown or Lawrence Reed. They might be able to explain the motive. The national media has not...

He reportedly had stopped in the bookstore to charge his phone when he felt an 'internal build up that led to his fight or flight response kicking in.' He then allegedly attacked Loncharich without any specific motive.

Meismer, a sophomore, eventually asked his teacher to use the restroom. Matthews, a senior, did the same minutes later. The pair allegedly argued there, as Matthews confronted Meismer about a missing THC vape pen that investigators said he believed the younger student had stolen. Moments later, Matthews and Meismer allegedly walked into an empty lab classroom, which an unnamed female student also entered. That is where the fatal stabbing allegedly occurred.
