Dr. Welsing was so powerful, so intelligent, so prophetic, and they knew that everything she said was 100% correct.
I remember when she destroyed that racist Dr. William Shockley in a debate on Tony Brown's journal back in the day.
Dr. Welsing was nobody to fool around with.
Every time a show like this has someone like Dr. Welsing on a national TV show like Ted Koppel, they checked her credentials. You know, they had somebody to read The Isis Papers and whatever other work on racism/white supremacy that Dr. Welsing wrote they knew that she was the real deal. She was not your average black Howard University-trained psychologist.
They know Dr. Welsing was on a whole different level, in other words, she did her homework extensively. And thank the ancestors that we still have access to her through video and whenever other platform, she was on. She probably was the greatest black woman of our century. The sad thing is that a lot of Black people have never even heard of her.
Peace and blessings be upon our dear and beloved ancestor Dr. Francis Cress Welsing 💯✌️❤🙏
SOCIALISM IS NOT A 'WHITE' CONCEPT
Today, 15 November, marks 27 years since the passing of pan-African icon Kwame Ture in Conakry, Guinea. To honour his lifelong commitment to struggle, we are remembering a few of his words of wisdom.
In this clip, Ture dispelled the pernicious myth that socialism is a “white” concept and showed how Africans were discouraged from exploring it. He spoke directly from experience, drawing on his illustrious, decades-long record in the struggle for African liberation worldwide.
Ture’s lifelong commitment to pan-Africanism took him from his childhood in a decolonising Trinidad and Tobago to the United States, where he chaired the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and initiated the Black Power movement. Later in life, he relocated to the mother continent, serving as an adviser to visionary Guinean president Ahmed Sékou Touré and founding the All-African People’s Revolutionary Party.
Although Ture was taken from us at just 57, his teachings will continue to inspire generations of revolutionaries to come.

What happened today at Texas A&M was unacceptable. No young man should face that level of aggression outside of the field of play. Especially, not from someone there to protect. This officer had the audacity to do this in front of millions. What does he do when no one’s watching? It didn’t escalate today, but that doesn’t mean it never has or will.

In 1984, Tony Brown sat in Tallahassee and cut through the noise: the push to merge Black colleges with white universities wasn't about saving money-it was about erasing Black institutions. Thoughts 💭 ⁉️
In the spirit of the broad purpose of the #HBCU support currently being bestowed on @SpelmanCollege , @ClarkAtlanta and @Morehouse , wondering if each of the schools either channeling 10 percent (or some smaller percent) of their gifts to @MorrisBrownHBCU or at least bringing MBC into closer relationship might be considered. We need our schools in the AUC to be stronger together. It’d be quite a statement.
When people say “diversity is strength,” that isn’t an opinion. It’s a recognition of our common humanity.
Those who reject diversity are not interested in our common humanity.
And that’s okay, until…
They are in positions to spew their fear over the rest of us in ways that harm us.
Currently, the federal government of the United States has been overrun at the highest levels by fear filled people who cannot be allowed to spew their fear in ways that harm the rest of us.
It’s time for that to end. There are many many more of us than them. And it’s time for us to get involved.
@eihtbeezy@KamauRashid “Things that make you go Hmmm.” Without question, in the words of Daudi Azibo, there is a clear ”distinction between Black Studies and the Study of Blacks.” In this regard, Greg Kimathi Carr’s piece, “What Black Studies Is Not” resonates.
