Why White America Should Feel Shame

To not feel shame is to be a psychopath — but shame can be constructive

Sniff. Sniff. Do you smell that?! Do you smell the stench of yet another bullsh*t period of “racial reckoning” in American history? As a Black American, there are so many things I want to share about how much the current state of bullsh*t offends me and other people of color. It is such a giant pile of crap to slog through that it is difficult to know where to begin. But I think I’ll begin with the horror of chattel slavery.
