🧵The 2020 @SpikeLee film #Da5Bloods connects the death of #CrispusAttucks at the #BostonMassacre to the brutality of the Vietnam War to the violence done to Black people today. It's an unbroken line, Lee argues, & understanding our place on it is how we break the cycle.
This Friday marks the 251st anniversary of the #BostonMassacre.
5pm: Grief, Remembrance, Justice w/ @ProRockThrower, @Kaimali, & @malialazu: https://t.co/3qCNuXxJNj
6:30pm: @PaulRevereHouse's A Solemn & Perpetual Memorial w/ Nancy Siegel & @SerenaZabin: https://t.co/uukHy4ZjRh
