TL;DR - Context doesn't matter as long as it makes me uncomfortable and the world is unfair because it refuses to change so that I don't have to think beyond my discomfort.

"Fact: The photograph shows coal miners’ faces covered in soot. The context of the photograph is not the issue."

How, in any sensible world, can there be anything more to know?

But it's for the greater good, it started a conversation.

Ben Stiller is a dimocrat, so he gets a pass.

Black face is only raaaaaaaycist if you are a white, hetero, conservative male.

Damn, if they’d have just learned to code, they wouldn’t have had this problem to begin with.

You know... real important, hard-hitting, world changing stuff. Keep your eyes on the prize guys.

I asked the waitress to speak with a manager. Instead, I spoke with a white restaurant owner. I explained to him why the photograph was offensive. Evidently, someone else had made a similar comment about the photograph before.

Yet, the photograph remained on the wall. He said he would talk to the other owners and get back to me. While leaving, I asked him had he spoke with the other owners. He had not spoken with them


My favorite part of the shitty article. He walked up to a business owner who was working, told him he was offended, and then felt disrespected that IMMEDIATE ACTION was not taken. He expected his sensitive feelings to be soothed at that very moment.
