A Pittsburgh anchorwoman who was fired for making racially insensitive comments on Facebook is suing her former employer for violating her civil rights.
Wendy Bell is suing WTAE TV for sacking her in March after her Facebook post about the Wilkinsburg BBQ mass murders went viral.
Bell’s attorney filed a federal lawsuit against the station on Monday, claiming she was fired because she’s white.
In the now-deleted Facebook post, Bell, who is 45, wrote on March 21:
“You needn’t be a criminal profiler to draw a mental sketch of the killers who broke so many hearts. They are young black men, likely in their teens or in their early 20s. They have multiple siblings from multiple fathers and their mothers work multiple jobs. These boys have been in the system before. They’ve grown up there. They know the police. They’ve been arrested. They’ve made the circuit and nothing has scared them enough. Now they are lost. Once you kill a neighbor’s three children, two nieces and her unborn grandson, there’s no coming back. There’s nothing nice to say about that.”
The station was flooded with phone calls and emails about Bell’s Facebook post which they said racially profiled all black men.
Bell was fired 11 days later.
Her words about black men had a ring of familiarity to them. As if she had intimate knowledge of the cultural psychology of black men because she grew up in that environment.
Rumor has it that Bell is mixed race. But unlike racial frauds Shaun King and Rachel Dolezal who cling to their delusions that they are black, Bell has always identified as white.
Thanks to loyal reader Mishan for the tip.
Looking at her hair close up, she does appear to be a mixie—-Dutchess voice (Black Ink).
No sympathy for this pink toe
What I find interesting is that the firing made international news while the murders did not.
Pretty sure she wasn’t the only one that came to that conclusion…. #ijs
Pittsburgh is one of the most racist places in the US. The nicer they are to you, the more racist they are.
Suing because of her entitlement. That’s rich.
Right. I didn’t hear any thing about that tragedy.
The REALLY sad part about this is that EVERYTHING SHE SAID IS USUALLY TRUE!! We see it everyday but we don’t like to hear it from white people. We have become so desensitized to the carnage that is wreaked on our community by our own.However, in this case, the street committee is saying that this was a professional hit probably carried out by persons of other ethnic persuasions who are known to traffic in large quantities of narcotics.
No one told me McDonald’s was bringing back the McMoon face!
…tis all I got..
Should’ve kept your big mouth shut and fingers off the keyboard…that’s what got you fired. I’m sure plenty of people were thinking same thing or saying it in hush tones but as a grown woman in the media she should’ve known to keep that kind talk at the dining room table. At least have the decency not to publicly profile now you want to sue on top of it? Hope she never lands another news job unless it’s to clean the dirty bathroom stalls everyday…ol pancake booty hefffffaaaah got some nerve trying sue!
0….
You had your right to say shatt. You still do.
But you gonna deal with any repercussions ??
We’ve been hearing racial disparages from Whites since we stepped foot on American soil. No, I don’t like hearing anything from Whites because it’s usually negative. They never talk about the Black kids who are getting into Ivy League schools. They don’t talk about how Africans are doing far better than any other group. They don’t talk about how Black women are going to college at a higher rate than any other group. They don’t talk about how Black women are the fastest growing business owners. They focus on whatever negativity they can find. Why? Because they always want to continue the fallacious mantra that they are superior and we are inferior. The sad part is that some Black people eat it up. There is nothing they can tell me about my people. Now, what White people need to do is focus on their own failing communities. Drugs are rampant in wealthy and poor White neighborhoods. They need to focus on their high suicide rates, racism and all the ills that plague them. Perhaps they aren’t familiar with those things because NOTHING they do is racialized. Everything we do is.
this was not this hoe first time making racist remarks back in March. It was the first and last time her station fired her dumb ass though. Now she wants to sue. She doesnt have a case since this was her SECOND TIME.

AND HO since you know so much, name them ???
#stereotypemuch ?
Hmmm… I read her entire post about three times. I guess what bothers me the most is “the multiple siblings from multiple fathers” bit. The bigger issue is that she is not a profiler and she probably doesn’t have a psychology degree, so her words come across as opinion and not science, which makes her look like a bigot. I wonder if she was right though.
Yep people better realize…you got every right say what you want as much as those who hear it can react how they want. A closed mouth can save you from yourself sometimes
Agreed
And too lazy to find another job. Fox would have hired her.
What state?
At will state?
Ma’am. She mad no one else will hire her racist behind.
Honey I say let people do what they like.
I like to see who I’m talking to, nameen??
Yeah I never heard of it either.. They only put out what they want us to hear..
PA is at will I think.
Wendy, I’m sure that there was an “Acceptable Use of Social Media” clause in the latest contract you signed. If you apologize, you can probably Ask Rachel to teach you to do box braids.
?????????????????
She looks rather pink to me…
Bish bet sit down ??
True people slip up and show them true colors without knowing it
#WhiteEntitlementGoneAwray #SandraGetchoPeeplz
I like it! ???
He handled that like a champ. BUT, he had that smile so many of US get when we ready to go in but remember we can’t.
THIS BROAD HERE…
…
Yup. Same thing I say when folks holla first amendment.
Come through with the research?? Drop them receipts??
“Insiders say that the station has protected Bell in the past, but are not so sure they can this time.”
==================
She was a habitual offender. The station could no longer cloak for her. She had to geaux.
Are you from here (Pittsburgh)?
Your statement is correct..
Hmmm ? Maybe that’s part of her argument. If they allowed it in the past ???
And I bet that knee slapping, shuckin & jiving sambo all hugged up on her was perfectly fine with her ignorant comments… I hope she was the breadwinner so now he’s broke!!
Yes! I bean waiting for the dummies to arrive!
??????
When I saw him, I thought, “He’s the OJ Simpson type.” The “I transcend race” Negro.
Thank you for your statement!!!
Its kinda sticky. Journalists dont have one. They encourage you to use social media. They encourage stay away from certain topics. Religion. Race. Politics. They dont listen.
You’re welcome. It had to be said because I’ve had it with this nonsense, you know?
Doing the most with the least!
http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/iggy-azalea-dumps-nick-youngs-stuff-in-driveway-w210702
Its gonna for sure be part of theirs. Their argument.
Uhhh they worked together.
Nah, that won’t fly because they will pull out their personnel records showing the coaching, warnings, and maybe even the sensitivity training she underwent as a result of her actions.
that ho said i want whateva your using.
response – fukk off
Choke on a dck because I’m not dumb to what you were saying. Foh ?
There is nothing they can tell me about my people.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
x1000. Exactly how I feel.
***
You better preach. Come on through….damn
WOW
Maybe so, but he still, to me, appears to be the OJ Simpson type.
The part of her being a journalist and supposed to be unbiased has no bearing huh? Well okay. I hope she loses.
You’re absolutely right. They don’t want journalists to say anything that could paint the company in a negative light. She didn’t want to be saved.
Washington Post policy:
“When using these networks, nothing we do must call into question the impartiality of our newsjudgment. We never abandon the guidelines that govern the separation of news from opinion, the importance of fact and
objectivity, the appropriate use of language and tone, and other hallmarks of our brand of journalism…Post journalists must
refrain from writing, tweeting or posting anything — including photographs or video — that could be perceived as reflecting political, racial, sexist, religious or other bias or favoritism that could be used to tarnish our journalistic credibility.
Sweetie – I don’t care if its his job to carry her cup of “lean” – he still looks pretty happy to be hugged up on that ignorant racist comment making broad!!
Thank you!!!
You’re welcome. Whew!
Stick a fork in her. She’s done. Maybe Paula Deen could have some work for her.
LMBO
Maybe it’s me, but her sentence structure is all over the place and why is she talking in riddles and see why she was fired. She is not a blogger and can’t be talking reckless under her true identity. (Even if PERHAPS the events and information is true)
I ain’t going smh
They don’t talk about how Black women are going to college at a higher rate than any other group. They don’t talk about how Black women are the fastest growing business owners.
=====================
Black women in college and black men in jail is a common topic. Unfortunately

I’m from Pittsburgh and she is correct. Left 19 years ago and never looked back. Very racist city.

What’s in that cup girl?
#whitewomenproblems
*CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP*
No shade no shade no shade but I Taint interested in nerry a police department doing the challenge? Just as I’m not interested in their so called good deeds ie not shooting a bunch of kids that were playing basketball…Look, we caught it on tape? All Devils far as I’m concerned?? Yo diversion video that you release to the public don’t move me? Only fiber does that? And when I say devils, yes that includes my brother who happens to be a pig?
She has Black genetics. It’s plain as day. Her hair alone is a dead give away. Don’t know how she reconciles that in her mind.
TUH
I think white people are blind to the crimes their race commits. There is a pattern. We are not usually found on FBI profile lists; why?, because it’s harder to classify what crazy white people will do. So, they have to do studies to understand what exactly goes wrong with them. It’s why they get away with the insanity defense more than we do.
Thought she was mixed race because of her hair texture. Gives it away every time.
I’m going to watch it because I’m bored but I swear you summed everything my brain is saying to me right now.
It made national news,If I recall Sandra posted about it. A Rose, correct me if I’m wrong.
others cultures have course hair….either way when you in the public eye…SHU
TOTALLY WITH YOU! TOTALLY! TOTALLY! TOTALLY! xPI. Because I don’t love them hoes either. But then again, Bren, my fran……you ain’t gotta watch it eitha’. LOL
Can she write me an essay on white crime in America that is so watered down in the media and excused for mental illness when they see fit? Look in the mirror first bitch.
Where is 88 to serve the blog today?
I’m from Pittsburgh and they still haven’t solved it. Although they named two people as suspects. They are in jail for an unrelated case.
Yeah…and where does that coarse hair come from? Africans….
THE DAMAGE THAT’S BEEN DONE BEGAN HUNDREDS OF YEARS AGO…SEPARATION OF FAMILIES/REMOVING THE FATHER FROM THE FAMILY…LIKE THE VERY FIRST MANUFACTURED CRISIS. AND IT DID WHAT IT SET OUT TO DO – DIVIDE AND CONQUER.
I TOLD A CHICK IN THE DRIVE THRU HER HAIR WAS PRETTY 5 TIMES THIS MORNING BEFORE SHE SAID THANK YOU…TALKING ABOUT “I COULDN’T HEAR YOU”…BISH PLEASE! THE ORDER TAKER WITH THE HEADSET HEARD ME SO I KNOW YOUR PETTY BETTY ARSE DID TOO. THIS ISHT IS DEEPLY DEEPY ROOTED IN THE PSYCHE OF OUR PEOPLE….AND CHIK FIL A OF ALL PLACES! EVERYTHING IS YOUR PLEASURE…TUH.
Yes, mixed. In other words, she’s claiming to be white, but she’s clearly mixed with some other ethnicity.
Has anyone read that they are not charging anyone with the Kendrick Johnson Case? The kid that was found rolled up in the mat at his school..
The sad part is that some Black people eat it up. There is nothing they can tell me about my people.
–
MOUTHFUL…HATE I DIDN’T READ YOUR COMMENT FIRST!
Iono know….I guess….I really do think it’s hard to say. JMO
Yea, she can go suck a cheesy dack. Not professional at all.
Yeah I do think she is mixed, but not necessarily African American…
I remember following that story heavily when it first came out. People were saying he fell into the mat from the bleachers smh
You’re a straight white woman. YOU DON’T GET TO BE THE VICTIM!
Wendy better hush before someone exposes her No-nation Negro behind.
Okay mr. Judy king
WHAT! That is so damn sad. I hadn’t even heard of an arrest or suspect(s). Just weird on HOW they tried to play it off like an accident–just fishy & confusing.
Thee one and only lol
YUmmmm? Haven’t had a cheesy one all year, but I shoull could use on ? Lubricates the mouth, and helps fight plaque??
No surprise there…need to be investing them stuffing newspapers in him…
Yoni– I would like to see those little girls from the Cincinnati challenge on Bring It. They were killing it.
I read it. Sadly, I’m not surprised. His case was mishandled from jump, but I don’t think the Feds could’ve pinpointed any culprits without it being a wild shot n the dark. Not to mention Benjamin Crump was representing the family, so he sealed it with his kiss of death.
one of the best lines of the season and the truth
Yes. Expected, yet still breaks my heart…Every time? There’s only so much I can take before o go postal? Allegedly, don’t want the Feds on my trail again? Allegedly…
IDT they’ll solve it because there weren’t any victims that TPTB cared about, ie white ppl.
What is the purpose of the pic with the black guy…hmm? Less racist?
It takes more than one person to roll that mat up
Ok conspiracy brotha.. lol
Alright! Thanks!
She sure wasn’t the only one, but she’s a public figure that came to that conclusion on a public form. She should have known better.
They claimed he fell in to retrieve a shoe. I didn’t know KJ personally, but I imagine that IF his shoe somehow ended up in a mat that was rolled and standing upright, he would push the mat over to get the shoe.
Exactly. Not impressed.
Right. You can not fall into a rolled up mat…
Damn…sounds like Memphis
Yup. He just rolled himself in that mat by himself, huh?
I thought she was a passing for white myself.
Shoot, where you think Feta cheese comes from? All them Greeks uncut. They just pull it back and shake that thing over a salad or a pita. Instant tangy goodness.
WITH A DECEASED BODY AT THAT…DEAD WEIGHT? PSSSSSSH. BUT IF IT WERE TOMMY? HEADS WERE SURE TO ROLL…STUPID AF.
Right. But they don’t think we that smart to believe that’s what he did or the fact he was killed.
Correction, Ms. Bell.
You were fired because you are white skinned mixed race, not white.
If you were in the hues of brown skinned mixed race, you would not have been fired for your commentary critiquing the social disadvantages of disenfranchised black men.
She didn’t say anything that black and brown skinned social theorists, professors, rap artists, poets, authors, teachers, or people around the way have not already said on a daily basis.
If she were white she’d lose this case.
But she will win this case.
Because white skinned mixed race people have civil rights too.
Oh yeah if she was warned and trained. *whispers* I aint read that much up top
*COUGH* SPRITE LOGIC *COUGH*
Shucks, when my four year old cuts up I need the strength of two linebackers.

Jesus…Crump. he spoke somewhere recently with his thick tongue and keynote never got to speak aftet Crumps opening….he is Too long winded.
CHURCH. LE MF WEEP.
Not to mention Benjamin Crump was representing the family, so he sealed it with his kiss of death.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Lawd, I hate myself for the way I bursted out laughing at this. This is truly the funniest ish I have seen today.
Facepalm
I think she just has pageant hair. Lots of teasing & hair spray. The Nancy Grace look
I can roll heavy orential rug alone. Its on the floor. But I cant move it. Nope
Banned!
:hahahaL
CHECK THE ROOTS THO…NEGRO.
And those wrestling mats are thick and heavy too.
It’s the work of the Good Ole Boy’s Club. That’s why I will raise Lil Butter the way my parents raised me: Learn the rules to their game, perfect your strategy, and use it to elevate yourself.
Did she call them “super predators”? Go Figure!
Lmbo.Whew… people are so cray on here. But it is hella entertaining.
These are perplexing times in America.
Basically, she passes for white but still has a black card if she so chooses to use it.
-PASSES YOU A BULLHORN- THEY AIN’T HEAR YOU IN THE BACK…
I love you. I read that our boo Antonio gone have a secret love interest that has appeared on Fire.
She will, unless whiteness works it’s magic. Probably breached her contract. I’m sure she signed a morals clause.
It’s at least a 2 person job. When I was cheering, we’d have 3 to a mat.
Especially with a body in it.
IDT

Well I’m can’t respond to that, but I’m not sure when statue expires. TTYL
He is a co-anchor.
Good riddance bitch
My heart sank to me knees when I learned that he was associated with the Johnson family. I even mentioned it on the blog to Futuredocdonte, I believe. I knew they weren’t going to get results once I heard the name Ben Crump.
I’m being serious. If the roles would have been reversed and they (the victims) had been white, I believe it would have been pursued more. Pittsburgh is racist as all hell.
Born and raised and getting the hell out of here in October
Huh momma lied to her bout huh deddy.
The times in Amerikkka has always been the same. That’s not changing. The very fact that she flip flop when she chooses and add to the negativity of blacks in the media is the whole point of her getting fired. This is also her second offense a privilege she was lucky to have.
And again facepalm SMH
SR!
Men caught with g uns and body ar mor under the Holland Tunnel
Then she went to Disney World. Where’s a gator when you need one?
What Gloria Allred is to women who are seeking a payday, he has become that to black families who have been wronged and are looking to the justice system to make it right. At least Gloria has won cases for her clients.
I haven’t seen that one. My niece is in one of those type dance troupes. But I don’t believe she was ever on Bring It.
I was just about to say that’s a poor analogy because his ass don’t win ??
I think that people misunderstand his role in the process. Not saying he’s the greatest but he isn’t nearly as bad as people seem to think he is.
P.S. I still hate to hear him speak.
I’m probably one of those people who misunderstand his role. I’m open for enlightenment.

That’s how black folk make money in the industry. They want to make sure to keep the black community looking ignorant. Oh yeah we love sneakers and sheit that don’t mean anything. That’s how they feel about us. Oh well
Sometimes…biggest one I’ve gotten was almost $50…
and in the pic the shoes are at the top and head at bottom. someone threw that shiat in afterwards. once again BULLSHAT!
A little annoyed with the candidates this go round.. I guess I am every election. Mad Perry didn’t do more to fight off his scandal in Texas to run correctly the last few times. Neither of these two represent their parties properly.
The police already said last year that the case is closed. It was an accident.
I seent it? No better way to diffuse the situation than to laugh at it??
Hush up so she can do the research and get us out of this post.
????
She is telling the truth. That’s our prob, we get mad at truth and protest, boycott, write etc but won’t contribute the same effort to addressing fixing what’s broke. We will never get ahead as long as we keep lying to ourselves.
U dont believe it was an accident. Right?
It was national news.
Let me start by saying there wasn’t any shade in my comment.
He has absolutely no impact on the outcome of the criminal case. During the initial phase and criminal trial phase, he is simply there to speak on behalf of the family, bring national attention to the case, and put pressure (via media attention) on the DA to bring a case, release evidence, etc. He is a civil attorney. He sues the state/city/police (whoever) and he generally wins. A lot of money btw. In some instances a civil suit is filed immediately so that evidence will be released in discovery. This also gets the ball moving.
Her black side will continue to get her in trouble unless she embraces her ethnicity.
Yes. Based on the autopsy report and the pictures, it was an accident.
But she isn’t telling the truth. She may be talking about some people in the community, but everyone is not like that. So don’t try and place those labels on everyone in the African American community.
it is a sad situation
Those wrestling mats are usually rolled up and stored vertically, not horizontally.
do they send them to you regularly or you file with different companies
Umm where did she say all Black folks were like that? She specifically commented on the KILLERS…but OK…
No she made a general statement. She knows what she is doing by putting that out there.
You gotta file for the class action lawsuits…I do it once a week when I got extra time…
?????
Welp! Folks cutting up. ??
Did they ever find the killers?
I don’t know could have been. Kids play and push all the time. Maybe they pushed him off into the mat thinking he could get out and he never did. Hell we stuck my cousin in the dryer and had her hollering as a kid. The truth will always come to the light though…just wait.
That expression never gets old. lol.
What if Sandra and Fred from MTO had a baby? Talk about Super-Bug!!! Get the cape ready for Bug’s Life Realness. I told y’all ugly people love to gossip.
She’s telling who’s truth? Not mine. Not any of my male cousins. going through the contacts in my phone, the last 15 people I text, that isn’t their truth either…
Oh Sandra, it’s her White side that hinders her, not her ‘black’? Watch imitation of life,,,I know, I know, you’re from Atlanta, y’all don’t have cable? But trust, it’s those yt genes that have you feeling entitled, better than, talking reckless…
It ain’t none of my people’s truth, not my brothers, my dad, uncles, cousins ‘nem, and I grew up in Pittsburgh so…
So you are saying he wouldn’t dive in head first?
Nice fruit smoothie is better.
She does look bi-racial. She reminds me of Leslie Sykes.
? possibly.
chit my neighbor dog be out at night just hollering. paranoid ass lol
Two named suspects no arrests
Right on!!!!!!
.sadly, they cant deal with the fact that their 100% superiority was a lie and now using ratios just seems silly..but gets pushed just as much. The jail and prison stats are really about how “they” are doing what they do.. not about minorities. I’m sure flipping the stats was from some think tank.

The wife of the Baton Rouge school administrator accused of murdering a
pregnant co-worker said she’s standing by her husband — but isn’t

out well. I can’t say, ‘Oh, he definitely didn’t do this.’ I don’t
know,” Kala Marks said Monday. “I’m just really confused.”
Maybe that was it….I was running through some of the top class action lawsuits.

So Gilbert Arena’s posted a pic of Nick Young and said they were going to have a breakup party at a strip club. He also said, “Nick I know you gonna #RawDoggy a few PLAYTA….sorry ladies but (havin s.x with a con.d.om on is like eating your favorite food with a balloon on your tongue, u gonna get full but you aint gonna taste sh.yt.” I had to google him to see if he had brain damage or something.

NEW POST – Frank ocean
She better not stand to close…they may start investigating her dumb behind.
DEAD
Multiple siblings, a dad that’s not there, and a mother that works more then one job have to do with the crime….These comments are what got her fired
Exactly.
She is pulling a plural race card to get her job back. She will win because technically she is not white but was fired because her skin is white.
Complex.
Yep, black hair. Like Dominicans, straight hair but check the roots.
Heyyyy. Can’t complain ready to smoke on something and lay my ass down. How you been?
I’m at work and can’t make one right now:( I did buy a lot of fruit over the weekend, so maybe I’ll make one when I get home.
Privilege at its finest. U say some sh*t you shouldn’t be saying knowing the type of job you have. Get fired because of those comments then feel like you were the one that was wronged. ?? bye girl
Her hair is a dead giveaway…Who else has that type of hair but people of African descent?
It always takes an extra 30min or so for me to see new posts.. bbooooo
For better or worse, she holding to those vows, I see
Sounds like a good plan.
Those folks are black and pretending to be something else trust that.
Those vows are not written out on the bible or any other moral or legal binding document. lol
She is racist.
What she said is racist.
Society wants the world to classify ALLLLLLL Blacks as low income, uneducated fools.
LIES. LIES. And More LIES.
*Hit head on nail* ????????
Thank you, Felicia! ??????
?????? Racism and White supremacy is so ingrained in the psyche of so many, that people believe the lie. It’s very very sad!
I know, that, but preachers say it all the time. And folks repeat it. I did it once, too, lol
@Low … I agree 1,000 %!! And THEY ain’t gonna do a damn thing about it — ITS UP TO US!! Hiding from the truth don’t make it any less the TRUTH!! They can’t tell me nothin’ about my people either … I can SEE!!
Wow she has pulled out of her pocket the honorary black guy to show she is not racist. I never thought I had to go to bed with another race to get alone with them.
Me too Dee.. Racist or not I am making great strided here finally. I stay in my lane and surround myself around positive folk..
Good luck to you and many blessings on where ever you are!!!
Preach!!! It really bothers me when other black folk co sign or cheer on white folks opinion of us… smh..
Some teams roll them up and store them on the wheeled thingie. They leave them lying horizontally. Either way they’re rolled tight.

Oh my bad. Didn’t understand what you meant. IDT = “I don’t think” and TPBT= “the powers that be”. Long time Lurker, first time commenting. EYE KNOW how some Roses can be, got lost in translation.
Exactly. She did that being stereotypical, stirring the pot, pissing people off. She knew EXACTLY wtf she was doing saying wtf she said. We can all sit in here and debate all day long till we’re blue in the face. Truth is, she and we all know the real.
I just hollered right now in the office and no one hit me… (real tears flowing)
so stupid. especially when you have white people doing the same mass shootings and they are portrayed as “confused” and “mislead” and they do not represent their entire race.
I’ve been good, no complaints here. I feel ya on the smokes, I stay ready. I can’t nap today, gotta get in this heat and work in the yard. I need to wash my car too.
You know Egypt is North Africa right? Italians complexion comes from Moors…
Say that!!
Me too. Thank you, blessings and good luck to you also! Go PENS!! LOL!
..no, thank you. I should also say when I use ‘they’.. part of it is the powerful controlling they, not the they that their own have bamboozled them to all think they are apart of. Both play a part but joe blow down the street has a different function as joe blow in washington. They use and are aware of generalization for good and bad. Peace.
I hope they countersue, that would really make a statement.
Thx! GO PENS!!!
TUH
You betta speak the truth!
She can still say whatever in the f^ck she wants to say. Anybody who wants to can say what they want to say. Your asz just bout gone be at home unemployed and a leper in proper society after you say it.
They fired her because she said some dumb sh^t.
*grunts*
Welcome to the Garden.
Don’t stereotype us ?
I thought she was a light skinned mulatto when I first saw her. No matter what…her words were inappropriate for a seasoned journalist. Maybe it’s something we say among friends, but why would you write that on your station’s Facebook page? And then you’re suing because you feel you were fired because you’re white. Hmmm. The nerve.
No one cares about black on black violence because it’s so prevalent. There’s your answer.
She will 100% have to prove that her firing is based on race. Maybe it was because she’s an a$$ and she wanted to pull the race card cuz she was feeling some type of way…
why you tell her that?…that blonde abomination on her head is just that..an abomination.
The Bible calls blonde hair a Leprosy.
“No, I don’t like hearing anything from Whites because it’s usually negative.” <- This is the inverse with the black community. Black people always find a few positive things that a small portion of blacks are accomplishing, and use this as a scapegoat to completely invalidate all of the negatives facing the black community. You choose to focus only on the few positives while completely ignoring the many negatives. However, black people as a collective cannot afford to ignore these issues. We cannot keep ignoring the prevalence of black on black crime. We cannot keep ignoring how lackluster the education system in inner city areas are. We cannot ignore how over a quarter of the American black population lives in poverty. We cannot afford to ignore these problems. By ignoring them, you're turning your back on these black people and simultaneously hurting yourself, as these issues directly affect every black American.
That’s correct.
SHE WAS BLACK HONEY…WITH A CUTE TWIST OUT BUT SWORE HER ISHT DIDN’T STINK. I SAT THERE AND REPEATED MYSELF UNTIL SHE ACKNOWLEDGED IT… DON’T BE IN THE WINDOW AND RUDE AF TEW. TUH
Got time off and unemployment. Last week she was fina quit.
Its just sum shît u dont say and ur “white privilege” wont work here…..or will it ?
Greetings. I’m a long time lurker who has dedicated my life to the cause of my people. My heart has been heavy as I watched 3 recent documentaries on the area I live in, but, don’t dwell in. I stay on the periphery of Compton/Watts/Willowbrook. I was educated in Compton and have taught in HS and community college. We have a lot of freeways (that facilitate crime) and I just never realized until I watched the gang lifestyle I have never experienced. I was here for the birth of red, blue and purple, but honestly, the young brothers I saw on my screen made me wonder if decades of organizations, church meetings, marches and such have done any good.
I was in an accident 3 years ago leaving a Compton HS teaching cultural dance and drum. It left me with a severe brain injury and necessitated use of a chair. I never let it stop me. I’m known to roll in the midnight hours if the protests demands. But i ask one thing. Can anyone give me “a word” for these babies? I no longer know what to say. I’ve witnessed the apathy of generations while I pulled my SUV onto freeways that carry me to better neighborhoods to shop, gig or speak. I have mentored many on big and little screens….Grammy winning etc. I have had gang members record their own CDs to sneak in math and English lessons. But when your calling is to work in the trenches, things get personal. Perhaps I’m burnt out. I can’t even figure where to start anymore. The youth, their parents, grandparents….all don’t have a clue and are complacent because they see no light. They have no dreams. They want the same sharing of America and aren’t aware of how they play into the hands of the oppressor. They lay down and stay down. Maybe I need a break, but I don’t see anyone trying to step up. I challenge my former classmates and siblings who all hold more than one degree, but no one wants to get down and dirty. Yes, I go into the projects, back alleys etc. God has covered me thus far. It’s those of us who have attained a piece of the dream I cannot seem to inspire to look outside your immediate families, households and at least grab one or two hands. I’m blessed to have had success in my field of performance arts and I realize my schedule is flexible. But who do we as individuals look to when we speak on what we can do and not just what needs to be done. #warriorspirit
Wow. Let me start off by saying that you’re a very admirable person. Even in the face of such adversity, you still didn’t let that stop you. Your spirit and fortitude is very inspiring. However, I fully understand your frustration. I’ve thought of following in footsteps similar to yours. Marching in protests, helping out in these communities, try to help our race for the better. But as you said, no one really seems to care. The people living in these communities don’t seem to care. The few that are fortunate enough to move out of those circumstances don’t seem to care. Black people in general just don’t seem to care. And it truly hurts my soul. It hurts to see these people going down these paths, because they don’t know any better. They never learned better. They had no one to teach them. No one to guide them. No one to truly help them. They go out and gang bang, because that’s all they know how to do. They don’t see the potential in themselves, because no one else showed it to them. It’s a vicious cycle, yet hardly anything is done to break it. I truly do admire you, and the other black people that actually try to help their communities in a meaningful way. However, if we want to make a true impact, we ALL need to work together. Black people are always trying to preach this sense of unity and kinship, yet quickly turn their backs on the ones that need their help the most. It’s just sad. I don’t know what to say or do to make people realize that you can’t just keep ignoring these problems. They will eventually be the death of the black community. No one is going to help us. We must be the ones to bring about change, and it’s going to require ALL of us to do so.
And white on white crime is higher than black on black crime that’s what they don’t say but I researched it whites kill each other at a higher rate than any other group
I suggest you roll out statics black on black crime is a community issue like all other community issues but white on white crime exceeds black on black according to the FBI and statics on violent crimes
Sure is, Ms. D!
You choose to focus on the few negatives because you’re a White supremacist and that’s the narrative you choose to ingest. We are the most imitated people on the planet, yet we are being told we don’t amount to anything. The fact is, we amount to much more than most, but people like you choose to think lowly of Blacks. We’ve never ignored those things you’ve mentioned. Perhaps you live under a rock, but the rest of us have been dealing with poverty, our lackluster educational system, and the unfair criminal justice system, but my question to you is, “What are YOU doing?” Are you just here disparaging Blacks or are you putting your money where your mouth is? If you are doing the later, I suggest you put up or shut up. If you choose to look at the accomplishment of Black people, you’d see that many of us are doing okay. Unless you look at White supremacy and systematic racism, then you’ve missed the boat. I’m not going to engage with you on those points unless you are open to truth.
As yes, the age old “white supremacist” rhetoric. How funny that this argument is always used whenever a black person brings up the callous disregard that blacks have towards issues that actually matter. I don’t think lowly of black people, nor did I ever imply that I did. That’s the conclusion you chose to draw because I told the truth. The black community is not in a good spot. To deny this would be intellectually dishonest. You claim that you’re dealing with these issues, but can you give me any clear-cut examples of what’s being done to combat them? What large scale movements are there to help fix these issues that are perpetuating a vicious cycle that’s single handedly destroying black families? Do you agree that the black community as a whole is largely ignoring these pertinent issues just so they can push a black supremacist agenda? Of course not. You claim to be “open to truth”, yet you’re too blinded to see what’s in front of you. You, and other black people who refuse to acknowledge what’s going on are willfully participating in the destruction of the American black community. You’re only digging the hole deeper. Truly enlighten yourself before it’s too late. I love my people. I want to see them succeed. I know they have it in them. But if anything is going to change, it has to be a team effort. If ya’ll don’t want to change, then I’m not going to try. I’ll pack up and leave the country and claim another nationality. Like others have said, I’m burned out. I’m tired of trying to convince people who refuse to wake up and listen.
Yes I did.! Hannibal invading Italy is why many Italians are black . All Italians today identify as Italian however at one time Sucilians (Moors) had to identify as black on their census. I included Egypt because people deny they are black even though are a part of Africa. Hollywood whitewashes Egypt all the time….
Thank you.
nah she mixed, and accoording to blacks, mixed is black, so shes a nubian queen
Exactly… Reading IS Fundamental!
THIS is what we have become. Social media has it where if you post a complete sentence people will readily say they’re not reading all of that. I SLAUGHTER the English language on the regular, but danggone. I’ll just use my favorite line here…WHAT DA HAYLE?
How does your keynote speaker not speak? Did he not get the memo, see the signal, hear the wrap-it-up music? Who didn’t cut the mic?
NOW I’m done! I have discussed some of the most heinous and disgusting things over a meal. But this imagery here…feta and I will never be the same. I’ll eventually go back, but I’m going to need some time. ?
Your rhetoric is fallacious and comes from a place of denial and deep ignorance. I don’t waste time on people like you because even when facts are presented, you still choose to continue with the same b.s. mantra. If you believe Blacks are in a bad place, then that’s your prerogative, but I don’t, and thankfully, many Black people are awake. You have your eyes wide closed. In fact, I doubt you are Black. If you are, you are as pathological as the White supremacists you deny. With that, this ends our discussion. If you choose to “claim another nationality” (which, by the way, a person’s nationality represents the country they are born in, so you can’t change that, but you can change your citizenship) and that would be fine with me. The tell tale sign that you aren’t Black is that you keep circulating your weak arguments. I told you that Blacks have always been working with the ills of not only only those in some of our communities, but the world. Apparently, you live under a rock. There are countless examples of Blacks marching, fighting, and dying for a cause, but you keep on repeating the same thing because you aren’t interested in those facts. Again, you aren’t even Black. Your rhetorical b.s. is that of a White supremacist. So, with that, I will not waste anymore time with you. You are a fake and a fraud. You never answered my question about what YOU are doing to make the Black community (by the way, we are not just ONE community, sweetie) better, but I can’t help but noticed you didn’t answer that question. Again, your circular arguments are typical. There’s never a resolve. With that, good bye.
Bye Felicia!
The delusion here is near palpable. If the black community is in such a good place, then why are the issues we previously discussed still so prevalent? Why do we still see the endless support of gang culture? Why has basically nothing changed after all these years? Explain this to me, if you can’t anything else. You are in denial and you intentionally dodge or skirt the questions that force you to use your brain. As per “there are countless examples of Blacks marching, fighting, and dying for a cause,” I stated in one of my previous comments that I acknowledge and admire the blacks valiant enough to fight for their people. However, still not enough is being done. The majority of black people have the exact same mentality as you and choose to ignore these pertinent issues. That’s why nothing is changing, and likely never will. I asked you to give me examples of large-scale movements that are combating these issues, but I see you chose to not answer that. As for what I’ve done? I’ve tried to get black people such as yourself to realize that not enough is being done, but it’s always in vain. I’m always met with hostility. The fact that you label me a “white supremacist”, despite the fact I never previously mentioned white people in any aspect, truly shows your intellectual capacity. Nothing I’ve said has been anti-black or pro-white, yet you label me a white supremacist. Pathetic. I have no respect for you, or anyone else who shares in your flawed line of thinking. You are a cancer that’s contributing the downfall of your own people. Bye.
Love the intelligent convo. Thank you for your elegant response
Right they had me fqd up ????
Didn’t know if I got insulted or WATT ?
Me too….I’m one of those Queens that still love going to the library and buying books at Barnes and Nobles. Knowledge is power.
Small print on employment applications will let you know that if you disparage the job or show any intolerance towards, ethnicity, gender, sexual preference, transgenders, race, religion or those with disabilities they will can you! Even if you fall in one of the categories are all of them you can’t say anything negative! I know someone black that said ” what’s up my ni****r that was fired”. They said it was a negative and racial way of addressing his fellow employee. He did get his job back, with no back pay and a demotion.
I don’t believe people are necessarily desensitized to issues occurring within their communities as there are many reactions for action and inaction. However, following this post, and the arguments provided I will only address those arguments.
People use deductive reasoning or critical thinking to problem solve and effect change or convey a message. Logical thinking is a part of the aforesaid process and this process applies to all race origin groups; not specifically “white people.” When a person uses broad generalizations and stereotypes in an argument the argument becomes a logical fallacy. A logical fallacy “is faulty reasoning or an error in logic” (e.g. argument “appears” to make sense). Wendy Bell’s arguments are logical fallacies that includes the following types: stereotypes and hasty generalizations. An argument that is based on a fallacy is not valid, and therefore not sound.
Also, the following statement: “The REALLY sad part about this is that EVERYTHING SHE SAID IS USUALLY TRUE!! We see it everyday but we don’t like to hear it from white people,” is a logical fallacy (stereotype/hasty generalization).
The logical way to bring awareness to the reported crime or communities is to not employ logical fallacies in speech, because it detracts from the issue.
Why would anyone use fallacious, illogical, and prejudiced speech, or literature to create any form of dialogue about issues effecting society? What would be constructive about that?
she’s blacklisted
I know Hillary Clinton used the “Super Predator” phrase or it has been synonymous with Hillary Clinton. I was stating the news anchor post sounded just like she was describing black people as “Super Predators”.
