I'm Late! I'm Late! For A Very Important Date! (The White Rabbit In Wonderland Before He Led Alice Down A Hole)

I'm a big ol' black head, today, and I. Just. Got. Popped.

“In several English-speaking countries, Niggerhead or nigger head is a former name for several things thought to resemble a black person's head.”

Spiritually-speaking, I mean, spiritually.

 “In An African-American Cookbook, many of the 400-plus recipes exemplify turning something undesirable into something good—just as tragedy turned into triumph for slaves who escaped to liberty long before and during the Civil War, thanks to those who helped them along the way."

Still sick in the head, though.

  “Asthma appears to be a big business for homeopathic practitioners."

Not as sick as others, mind you, but I'm really having a moment.

“Is it not logical to assume that, if someone is  relatively fit and healthy, he/she is more likely to take up yoga?”

You know what? I think you guys were right. The black/white thing?

Completely unnecessary.

“His entries make it clear that he views the unfortunate people as simple commodities to be bought and sold."

Americans are NewAgers (especially the self-important "smart and independent" Western female yoga students known as the "worried well") who aren't even aware the seemingly-simple "exercise" they're sold, for the body, holds mental - behavioral - changes they're also "buying" into.

“There’s something depressingly same-same about the cases. Bikram and Friend’s communities implicitly gave them messiah-like status, accepting behaviour they would no doubt otherwise deem inappropriate (during Bikram’s nine-week intensive teacher training it was considered a high honour to be asked back to his room to massage him, wash his feet and brush his hair)….”

So, instead of fighting for black folks by appealing to whites' non-existent sense of justice, I'm taking up yoga, so I can get to the head of the class and spout what everybody needs to do in a forum where they'll listen:

“What I can’t figure out is what ozone therapy has to do with either homeopathy or ophthalmology.”

Don't worry about what that is. Bend over. Swallow. Sweat it out.

  “There’s more. The app subverts its ultimate goal by offering users the choice to “opt out” of their experience. If you are a person who constantly has to confront the experience of being marginalized, you’re stuck. You never have the option of opting out from your experiences and related discrimination. Your only choice is to respond or remain silent."

Never given any thought about cultism, or slavery, before?

 “We just do not know much about Native American history or black history in this country. Even if you are a white American, you don’t know enough American history to make you a citizen.”

Then you're about to reach your full potential,…
