“Let's be clear. Black representatives alone do NOT equal Black political power. This is not a new concept. Kwame Ture (formerly Stokely Carmichael) said in 1967 of "Black Power": "It does not mean merely putting black faces into office.

RFK Jr is a plum fool. I really hate these people. Like HATE. And that’s not even a strong enough word.

Pro-life my ass. This is ridiculous.

Because of federal rules, children covered by Medicaid won't be able to access vaccines that are no longer recommended by the federal government, even as children with private insurance will. https://t.co/f2J70gI7a5

Every opportunity any immigrant has in America is directly related to Black Americans and the sacrifices made by the elders and ancestors. Pop culture, language, schooling, work, and literally anything else all non american people of color participate in, is built of the back of Black American cultivation.

From the moment chattel slavery formally ended outside of prisons, Black communities insisted on imagining futures beyond the narrow confines imposed on us, and then building the power to bring those futures forward. https://t.co/IglKZgdQKh

He was my fave character on Snowfall. I named my second car, a Jeep Renegade, Leon. My first, a Honda Civic, was Bodie; and my current Nissan Rogue is Omar. Bleeding-heart principled (mostly) gangsters who just didn’t have much of a choice be tugging on my heartstrings 😭

[A Lover & A Fighter @GetLifted1913]

Leon killin me with this grown man robe & this song in the background 😭 po thang.

As peculiar as Boomers and Gen X can be (and, thus, the jokes that come to them), watching 80s/90s shows always reminds me of the inconceivable amount of shock, loss & grief people experienced, between crack, AIDS, & gang violence. Life really tore a lot of people/families up.

So much BS pouring out that her voice is shaking. Girl, go to hell.

Black people make up 13.6% of the population in the U.S. and account for 69% of all exonerations.

That’s what systemic racism looks like.
