[𝐀𝐒𝐇 𝐋𝐄𝐎́𝐍 @AshTheDonLeon]

it sounds dramatic but i genuinely pray more [black] boys and eventually men reject the indoctrination of misogyny imposed upon them. idk where it starts but i think older black men that have led that life speaking candidly about their reality would be one.

So we took a deep dive into this Naziyah Harris case out of Detroit, and it is breaking our hearts... 💔

Na'Ziyah Harris, a 13-year-old from Detroit, went missing on January 9, 2024, after she was last seen getting off a school bus. Her disappearance and subsequent murder investigation led to the arrest and charging of Jarvis Butts, a 41-year-old man from Highland Park, with first-degree premeditated murder, second-degree criminal sexual conduct, and child sexually abusive material.

Na'Ziyah was reported missing the day after she was last seen. Her social media accounts went quiet, and she did not return home from school.

Butts was charged with multiple counts related to Na'Ziyah's case, including murder and sexual assault. He was also accused of sexual offenses involving two other girls, one now 20 and another now 13, from separate incidents dating back to 2012 and 2015 respectively.
It was alleged that Butts had groomed Na'Ziyah since 2022, leading to her pregnancy, which he tried to cover up by looking into abortions and even searching for methods like drinking red anti-freeze.

Text messages revealed Butts and Na'Ziyah had communicated on the day she disappeared, planning a meet-up. Butts was seen with her after school, and they visited Ypsilanti before returning to Detroit.
Police found clothing believed to be Na'Ziyah's near the Rouge River, where Butts was located the day after her disappearance, with signs suggesting a struggle.
Digital forensics, including phone records, showed Butts' movements and searches related to abortions around the time Na'Ziyah went missing.

Butts was bound over for trial after a preliminary examination where numerous witnesses, including family members and digital forensics experts, testified. The judge described Butts as a "monster" for his actions, believing he killed Na'Ziyah to cover up the pregnancy.

Na'Ziyah's family has been actively involved, expressing frustration over the initial handling by school officials and hoping for justice. They've also highlighted systemic failures, particularly with Child Protective Services and school oversight, which might have prevented the tragedy if addressed earlier.

As of the latest updates, Na'Ziyah's body has not been found, but the case proceeded to trial based on the overwhelming evidence of her murder by Butts.

"As a community, we should look at this case as a prime example of how much work we have to do when it comes to protecting our children and especially Black girls."
--Judge Aliyah Sabree

The CEOs of Apple, Meta, Amazon, and OpenAI have all donated $1 million each to Trump’s inaugural fund.

Uber and its CEO made a donation of $1 million each ($2 million total).

[jimmy @jimmysoldout]

this is also sad because why i asked my uber driver last night if the drivers benefit from the surge rates and he said no….. like he only got $11 total for my ride that i paid $70 for, he assumed my fare was $30-40 bc of that amount and was so gagged when i told him

I was raped in my own home on a New Year’s Eve. Since my rapist was found guilty in 2023, I’ve tried to reframe New Year positively. I can’t bring myself to celebrate it at home, so every year I travel to a different city. I’ve done Riga and Brussels, and this year I’m in London!

No, we’re not visiting the UAE, a country responsible for the worst humanitarian crisis ever recorded in history. Dubai is built on the blood of Sudanese people, profiting off our blood gold. It’s shameful of anyone to advertise a country committing genocide & terrorism in Sudan.

Police in Alabama shot and killed a 16-year-old boy in his own home during a no-knock raid in the middle of the night.

Body camera footage allegedly shows Randall Adjessom raising his hands and backing away just before an officer opened fire.

He was left bleeding on the floor for 4 minutes before officers attempted to render aid.

Randall is remembered as a loving family member who brought joy to those around him.

RIP
