If you can’t find #Ukraine on a map (much less explain to a 10 year old major points in the last millennium of Eurasian empire building & defending, including countries of Western Eurasia [Europe] & its global former colonies), now would be a good time to learn to do both.

#BlackHistoryMonth Day 1, Book 1: Burnis Morris’s excellent study of how Carter Godwin Woodson and ⁦@ASALH⁩ worked with and through Black institutions to preserve, promote and extend our collective memory. Black institutions are essential. #BHM #BlackHistoryMonth2022

[Greg Carr @AfricanaCarr]

The first day of #BlackHistoryMonth : A reminder that Carter Godwin Woodson envisioned this as a brief period when we note, celebrate and inform others on what we have learned about our history all year round. From March 1, 2021 to January 31, 2022, how'd we do? #RememberTheGoal

The Underground Railroad to Mexico. Across Texas and parts of Louisiana, scholars are working to piece together a puzzle of a largely forgotten piece of American history: a network that helped thousands of Black slaves escape to south of the border. https://t.co/M3S2Yo6hUM

“The research letter from Harvard found that among 3,222 young adults hospitalized with Covid-19, 88 died — about 2.7 percent. 1/5 required intensive care...The study “establishes that Covid-19 is a life-threatening disease in people of all ages,” https://t.co/TvyJuwOnmy

The intersections between the civil rights and labor movements are often left out of history education. On this Labor Day, we remember activists like A. Philip Randolph, who saw both movements as essential and interconnected.

Reminds me of what A. Philip Randolph said in 1919:

"Prejudice is the chief weapon that enables the capitalists to exploit both races... The capitalists want profits, they don't care who makes them for them... Black and white workers unite."

[Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II @RevDrBarber]

Trump believes a political race war is key, and he will keep trying to change the subject. We have to refuse the bait and show how division is being used to hurt most of us.

[Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II @RevDrBarber]

In a nation this rich, in the middle of a pandemic, to be putting people out on the streets like this? It’s immoral.
