“If You Know A Racist, Don’t Be Shy:” Skai Jackson Is Exposing Racist White Teens And Their Respective High Schools On Twitter



While a number of celebrities have disappointed us with their commentary on the current fight for racial justice this week, Skai Jackson is not one of them. In fact, it’s not so much what Skai has said that is making us proud, it’s her exposure of what others have said.

Using her platform, like a good famous person should, the 18-year-old has begun exposing white racist teens to her nearly 320,000 followers. And I don’t mean just reposting videos and tweets out of disgust. I mean calling the names and adding their city, state, high school, and in some instances, even their job so that they, hopefully, suffer the consequence of their actions.

It’s a pure moment of solidarity as the information is coming from some of Skai’s own followers who have asked her to expose the egregiously racist behavior they’ve witnessed from kids in their school along with the recepts, i.e. screenshots of private messages, videos, and so forth that leave no room for question. It all started when Skai put out a call, telling fans “If you know a racist, don’t be shy! Tweet me the receipts.”


It looks like the effort is working too. In response to the tweet below alleging inappropriate conduct by a teen at Texas Christian University, the school responded on Twitter and said they have reported the student to the appropriate administrative staff.
Today the former Disney star confirmed she still has time, tweeting this afternoon: “I expose racists all day, every day, 24/7, to days a week, and opened all hours.”

In the words of the kids, we love to see it.

Black Adam Can Be The DCEU’s Wolverine

The upcoming Black Adam movie could position its title character as DC's equivalent to Wolverine. Though Black Adam has taken quite a long time to get rolling, the first day of DC FanDome gave a peak at what audiences can expect, from name-dropping several Justice Society of America members who make appearances to Dwayne Johnson stressing the harsh origins of the title character. Johnson's description of Black Adam himself also may offer a sense of just what role he'll occupy in the world of the DCEU. Johnson would place particular emphasis on Black Adam having been a slave who achieves his freedom after being granted power from the gods and who now seeks to unleash his own brand of justice on the world. Aside from the moral ambiguity of Black Adam, Johnson has also repeatedly spoken of him as a game-changing figure in the DCEU with the power level that he operates at. Meanwhile, with the way Black Adam is being presented as a character, he could carry some notable parallel...

The Earth is making the moon rust

(CNN)The moon is getting rusty. Scientists had the same reaction you probably did when they reached this conclusion. It shouldn't be possible -- after all, there's no oxygen on the moon, one of the two essential elements to create rust, the other being water. But the evidence was there. India's lunar probe, Chandrayaan-1, orbited the moon in 2008, gathering data that has led to numerous discoveries over the years -- including the revelation that there are water molecules on its surface. The probe also carried an instrument built by NASA that could analyze the moon's mineral composition. When researchers at NASA and the Hawai'i Institute of Geophysics and Planetology analyzed the data recently, they were stunned to find hints of hematite, a form of iron oxide known as rust. There are plenty of iron-rich rocks on the moon -- but rust is only produced when iron is exposed to oxygenand water. At first, I totally didn't believe it. It shouldn't exist based on the...
