Not “isolated” incidents with names attached. A lot of Black people expected to hear the sounds of...

can we just remember that joan calling irene a ‘bitch’ comes directly after irene dehumanizes joan, a woman of color, as a ‘mascot’?
and yet i’ve seen twice as many complaints about joan’s misogyny than i have about irene’s racism (and hell, not even going to cut corners, racialized misogyny since it’s dehumanizing a woman of color as an object for a white man)?

so every year after the juniors finish reading The Great Gatsby my high school english teacher throws a Gatsby party at his huge house and everyone shows up in period clothing and Charlestons to 20s music and my english teacher just wears a suit and stands off to the side staring wistfully out the window the entire night
