It’s her truth. Who are you to say her truth is wrong even though there’s zero evidence to support her truth?

Racist bigot.

Does this dumbass think that black people invented yoga? They're "culturally appropriating" it too.


The rest of the quote makes it slightly better.

"… every person that I have met in the yoga world that I felt was being racist," she says. "But by the end of it I realized I don't have s--- to say to anybody else that I don't first need to say to myself - and that is the most important work of all."

Exactly. Once we ignore "the truth" for "your truth" and "my truth," shite went sideways.

And that cartoon is great.

I wonder if self-loathing white people will ever have enough of being called white supremacists to finally wake up and fight back. Or will they just keep apologizing for being the oppressive white devil, responsible for all the ills of the world.

You have to actively try to find racism everywhere to see any of this.

An extremely over weight black person cannot do yoga so instead of losing weight and pushing her self to improve she blames white people...got it.



Stacy Abrams said black women can't diet and exercise and lose weight like white women because of racism.

People like her are the reason everyone shakes their head at Americans. She is a obese piece of shite that has strained our health care system with this faux, "fat is good". it's not....

Side note, who gives a frick on who takes yoga and what color they are.

Laying on your back with a tub of ice cream on your stomach isn’t anyone’s yoga.
