Homelessness is too high to really be tryna make fun of peoples living arrangements. It’s really just not a joking matter.

A Black women just told me that no one needs to be laying around all day so my message of rest and community care doesn’t make sense.

Constantly concerned for us.

🚨 SCOTUS never did a discovery in the student debt case. They never asked Republican AG's to back their claim that MOHELA will lose revenue if Biden enacts relief.

Turns out, they completely fudged numbers.

MOHELA will earn $167M after relief—the most in MOHELA's history ever.

“Yes, I had to educate myself and yes I had to get a better understanding. And yes I had to lose some friends along the process, but I never wavered on loving my kids and trying to find space to get the chance to understand them.” - Dwyane Wade speaking on his trans daughter Zaya

Just passed the site of the Combahee Ferry Raid on our way to Savannah. On June 2, 1863, Harriet Tubman became the first woman to lead a major military operation in the U.S. when she and 150 Black Union soldiers rescued more than 700 enslaved Gullah Geechee during the Civil War.

The Gullah Geechee song “Kumbaya” is a plea to God for help. You may know it as “Kum Ba Yah,” “Come By Yuh,” or “Come By Here.” Once one of the most popular songs in the folk revival of the 20th century, it has more recently become the subject of misplaced scorn.

The coil basket on your left was made by a Gullah Geechee woman in the South Carolina Lowcountry. The one on your right was made in the Kongo Kingdom—which included parts of what is now Angola, Gabon, the Republic of the Congo, and the DRC.

I’m prepping for a talk on the Black Seminoles, aka the Gullah Geechee Seminole. I put together a comparison of words in African languages, Afro-Seminole creole (Old Gullah) & Gullah. It includes info showing how the Black Seminoles’ creole shaped Spanish words.

[GullahMuseumSC @GullahSc]

How did the African trickster folktales using animals like Br’er Rabbit and Br’er Fox told by the Gullah Geechee influence the creation of characters in popular culture like Bugs Bunny and Peter Rabbit? I’ll start at the beginning.
