A little early birthday present me to y'all. Happy to share my new article on @solangeknowles and Black brilliance that is When I Get Home. Grateful to @SCquarterly and to @profblmkelley and Rhon Manigault-Bryant for their vision and loving edits.

There’s a more interesting and productive convo to have re: Yung Miami and Spend Dat but the old heads are too busy finger wagging at the youths for being youths.

Really hate when one of my favorite follows tweets some dumb shit. Please don’t lecture the people on the culture wars of the 90s as it relates to rappers and hip hop if you aren’t going to address the rampant sexism and misogynoir that continues to this day.

@BlackCatrachoBK heavy on this.

someone should prepare ppl in their late teens and early twenties for the reality that one idle Thursday in May, when you are 39, 40+, you will sit straight up in your bed at 5 am, utterly devastated by the awful or embarrassing thing you did two decades prior.

@DragonflyJonez No functionality. Similar to his ultimate role in the relationship: Despite the attention, a burden and unworthy of praise.

"Inside the Body of Black Feminism" by @samanthanpinto connects historical studies of medical racism with Black feminist theories of the body to imagine possibilities for political subjectivity across race, gender, and culture. Read the intro for free now: https://t.co/cuSfBJu9WE

The mother of missing 16 year old Aysia Banks:

"I am gonna be full transparent and share everything surrounding the disappearance of my daughter , because CMPD is playing it like a runaway case and it’s being taking lightly.

For those wanting answers … here are the answers. I know it’s a lot but I need you all to read and please share.

I am speaking out to bring urgent attention to the disappearance of my daughter, Aysia, and to express my grave concern regarding the current handling of her case.

CMPD is currently classifying this as a runaway; however, the circumstances surrounding her disappearance strongly suggest she is in danger and may have been groomed or manipulated.

HERE ARE THE FACTs:
• Last Seen: Tuesday night ( April 14th -early morning of April 15th)

• I was working a night shift (7 p.m. – 7 a.m.). My 9-year-old son reported that Aysia left with a bag during the night.

• When I arrived home, all of Aysia’s known electronics were left behind. Her phone enters automatic "Downtime" at 11 p.m., restricting her communication to parents only. Her other parent is currently out of the country.

• Because she left her devices behind, I believe she was either using a secondary device I was unaware of to communicate with someone, or arrangements were made prior to 11 p.m.

Aysia is 16 years old and has no history of running away or behavioral issues.
She is a dedicated Honors Student and a member of the National Honors Society.
She values her education and would never willingly miss school or abandon her younger brother in this manner.
And none of her close friends has any answers or any clue about her disappearance.

Between the hours of 1 a.m. and 5 a.m., a 16-year-old girl is extremely vulnerable. Whether she was lured away willingly or forced, she is a minor alone in the middle of the night. I believe she has been targeted and groomed.

Something is wrong.

My daughter is not a "troubled child” she is a child who is missing, and someone else is involved.

I am asking for the community’s help and for law enforcement to treat this with the severity it deserves.

Truly can't take another day of horrible takes on Black Marxism. ENOUGH. Y'all don't read widely or well enough for this.
