For @LAReviewofBooks, I reflected on the 50th anniversary of Ralph Bakshi’s “Coonskin” and our national obsession with cartoonish racial violence. Check it out: https://t.co/cKyGNCePEJ

@oliviersaidhi @pitchfork This is really dope—love how you put the current wave in a historical context too

[josh! @queersocialism]

very funny how the left has so much historical concepts — like “racial liberalism,” “neoliberal multiculturalism” — to describe the elite liberal capture of the grammar of social and political struggles. and everyone has just… adopted the right’s framing of the phenomenon lol

@AdamLMahoney Congrats! Excited to check it out

For at least 307 years, no generation of my family has ended where it began. We're not alone. I'm writing a book about it.

“What I knew that my critical elders didn’t…was that hip-hop mattered from the get-go. That once again, the African American working class…had created another vernacular, improvisational form of addressing their condition and the condition of the world.”

Two years since “Not Like Us” dropped—and one year since I covered its deep contradictions for @scalawagmag: https://t.co/JUISd6UZOd

Scalawag was the first publication to take a chance on my journalism and criticism—they’re such wonderful stewards for their writers and they’re putting out stuff that no other outlets will. They deserve all the support 🙏🏾

[Scalawag @scalawagmag]

Over the past few months, we've lost critical funding because we stand in solidarity with the most oppressed. We told the truth. And that makes some people uncomfortable. But we didn't build Scalawag for comfort. We built it for liberation. Donate today!

appreciate both @Al_Peeair and @andrejgee for speaking on the Allstar JR bullshit. more important now than ever to have trusted voices cutting through the noise to speak against the callousness we've been trained to approach Black violence/death w

[goma @soigomaa]

we live on a planet where trees warn each other of danger through underground networks. where octopuses dream. where elephants return to the bones of their dead and stand over them in silence. where bees communicate through dance, showing each other where to fly. where flowers bloom...where crows remember human faces -especially those who were cruel to them - and pass that memory on to their young. where ants build entire cities. where cats purr at a frequency that can help heal bones. where forests, after fires, grow flowers first.
