Normally I don't stray away from music posts. Even when I talk about movies, they're tied into music one way or another. Today, while trolling around ATRL, I caught a glimpse of this thread.
Basically, BuzzFeed gathered a bunch of FB status updates of people referring to Martin Luther King, Jr. Day as National Nigger Day, or some awful variation of the term. Do I really need to go on a tirade about this? No, I think I already said my piece about a Lady Gaga who called me a "monkey slave."

It's crazy to see how far people go. Martin Luther King and various other civil rights leaders worked so that African Americans could co-exist equally with whites and to see this is upsetting. Racism definitely isn't gone by any means.
