Whiteness Whiteness ACLU Whiteness Harambe Whiteness Katie's Goats Whiteness
Katie (white) and Jesse (white) talk about the perils of Whiteness, a situation in which one's soul is colonized by a mayonnaise-devouring demon who makes you hate other races and ask your neighbors to turn the radio down. They also talk about the ACLU and (more importantly) Harambe. Make sure to check out our sponsor, Ground News, at try.ground.news/blocked (http://try.ground.news/blocked).
