  • 3! Wow!

  • Lol @ skinheads upset at negative stereotypes made about them. POC experience way more than you ever will... just sayin'. Think of it as a lesson in epathy. A taste of what it's like for the rest of us. Not that it's right. It's all pretty fucked up actually.

  • A lot of you are missin' the point of this video. Stop bein' so damn defensive and listen to her MESSAGE .

  • she took this to another level i got news for u racist filthy trash on here DONT WATCH!!" and im black and LOVE BEING BLACK OK!!! u arrogant trash wish u were. i was born right here in AMERICA AND IM ITS SUPERIOR :-)

  • Here we go with more ignorance, once again vilifying a whole culture for the same crimes you commit in your vilification. Racist skinhead is an oxy-moron. You can google that shit! But run around pointing your bigot finger commiting the same crime you judge others so dutifully for. I am a skinhead and I crippled two nazi's last week. I am a skinhead and I am a poet. I am a skinhead and I have used my body as the torch to burn down towers of lies and racists. Do your homework!

  • holy shit, that was amazing.

  • I liked this, personally. I am very much a white kid... I think, being that she's from Chicago, and there is an infamous violent nazi skinhead circuit there it is quite the boundary crossing piece, for her, and in the general public eye. Having a shaved head has nothing to do with hate, though. Buddhist monks shave their heads... I have alopecia, so I shave my head... I treat everyone around me the same so I don't think I have had a problem with people thinking I am hateful.

  • rossyboy and xbristles..funny how u wrote this right before some dude with his head shaved killed 6 people......u act like the white power movement doesnt exist....

  • Really didn't enjoy this at all, I'm a skinhead myself and whole-heartedly anti-racism. This negative image of white power skinhead thugs is a dark mark on a beautful culture and we should not be punished for the few morons that tried to claim the skinhead lifestyle for themselves

  • lame. why can't people like this be sued. look up the history of skinheads. i wonder how the black skinheads of chicago feel about this?
