@BizzMacc @GeneralMCNews If it is advancing so exponentially, where’s the cure for cancer, Type-1 Diabetes, or any of the abundance of diseases that have yet to be cured? It can destroy the world but not cure the common cold??? 1

Please pray for me. I've been given 6-12 months to live having stage 4 esophagus cancer. I'm fighting for my life.

Any and all prayers are appreciated.

@Scottobix God bless you and your family

@Biharanire0 Awwww. Nice to know our children can pet the animals now without fear. It’s so kind of you to create this video so they can see it and know that it’s OK now.

@FLCons I would look at this and be intrigued by how "free" they are compared to children who are beaten and admonished for every little thing. I think the best practices are somewhere in the middle.

I am excited to join @USCAnnenberg and @ReportingHealth in just about an hour 1 pm eastern (10 a.m. Pacific) for this webinar on reporting and researching history, genealogy, and covering the impact of all kinds of ancestral lineage and the past on the present. I will be giving tips and discussing my look back to 400 years of history for my book, I AM NOBODY'S SLAVE (HarperCollins, 2025).

To attend you must RSVP (it's free) here, before the event: https://t.co/vKFCe4UgVs

@NeverteIImeodd Why did it take so many officers?

@omoelerinjare You can tell SHE LOVED THIS!

[leehawkins @leehawkins]

In the movie, DJANGO UNCHAINED, Stephen was the head house slave / senior house servant at Calvin Candie’s plantation, Candyland. But in practice, he had real power inside the plantation hierarchy: he enforced the master’s interests, controlled information, watched the other enslaved people, and helped maintain the system. She probably descends from someone like him and doesn’t even know it.

@omoelerinjare Whipping him for the teacher (who does nothing) while calling him the N-word repeatedly is giving Kunta Kinte/Toby vibes!!!!
