I'm a 22 year-old black guy from American of Nigerian and Swedish descent, and I'm currently teaching English to elementary school kids in rural Taiwan for a year.

These are some of my thoughts and stories.

And, no, I do not look like Lebron James.

“No White Bullshit— the Dance” 

Oberlin College has been reeling with hate speech and intimidation of black faculty and students over the past month, including a reported sighting of a person wearing a KKK-style hood and robe on campus. The President of Oberlin College went on CNN recently to try and diffuse the controversy using normal PC platitudes that make it seem like they have now moved past the issues. A group of Oberlin students called him on his bullshit on air, and at 3:50…. let me introduce to you the “No White Bullshit Dance,” as one girl from said group of students busts out part of a step routine mid-chant before the camera pans away.

I need to work out a routine like that too for similar confrontations (or at least a gif).
