Just finished They Were Her Property: White Women as Slave Owners in the American South.

This book literally deserves to be read in high school, college, & grad school because it lifts the veil off white women as damsel & distress when they were co-conspirators in slavery. 🧵

Claire is actually genuinely the worst thing to happen to The Bear

All eyes on Rafah.

This isn’t war. This is genocide.

Repeat it. Spread it. Let the world know.

[Van Lathan Jr @VanLathan]

Uncomfortable truth time. The world feels entitled to Black American culture. We share it so freely because sharing it has been one of the only ways we’ve been seen. Our intellectual, political, and scientific contributions have erased and delegitimized, but the world still agrees we can make you dance, laugh etc.

Since that culture remains our biggest export, we sell it. Because we sell it, every one consumes it, then thinks it’s theirs. It’s not. Our culture is like any other, based on shared history, pain, ingenuity, inspiration, and pressure. There was a tax paid. Like ANY other culture in EXISTENCE you can’t walk in and walk out without an understanding of that tax at the very least. It would be silly to think that.

To think that we should just be fully giving of our art, experience, and cultural invention to the world with nothing so much as a conversation would make us the workhorses of the world.

No.

I wouldn’t expect that from any group in the diaspora. I would expect that if Beyonce did a dancehall album tomorrow, there would be a conversation. I would expect that if Kendrick went Afro Beats and opened a Jollof restaurant we would talk about it. And the obligation we’d have to each other is that the conversation be had with love. That’s the only time we fail, not when we don’t talk about our differences, but when we war about them. But, we are different, and that’s okay.

Gates will be kept, but not necessarily locked.

Vlad is whack for a myriad of reasons. But in this you can tell he saw a Black woman and a predominantly white university and tried to use his whiteness against her. DISGUSTING.

BREAKING: Israel is now bombing 1.7 million civilians trapped in Rafah, threatening an imminent invasion of the last “safe place” in Gaza.

Israel is committing the worst crimes in modern history, and Western regimes are calling it “self-defense”.

Never forget. Never forgive.

Ryan Gainer was 15, had autism, and was shot and killed by the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department because he was holding a garden tool.
Murdering a 15 year old autistic Black boy, experiencing a crisis, is enraging and another example of a rotten system that must be dismantled.

Tik Tok is not the problem.

Lack of healthcare is
low wages are
inflation is
Housing costs are
Rising homelessness is
Air quality is
Clean water is
Money in politics is
Data security is
Billionaires getting tax subsidies are

Teachers underpaid, 0 gun laws to keep people safer, womens rights are being questioned, the LGBTQ+ community is constantly under attack…..but they got time to vote to ban TikTok

Janice Burgess, creator of The Backyardigans has sadly passed away at 72. Beyond creating that show, she was the vice president of Nick Jr, and had a hand in many Nick/Nick Jr shows, such as Gullah Gullah Island, Bubble Guppies, Tania, Winx Club, and many more. RIP 💚

@aaronzbitch1 Everyone wants to use our organizing labor while looking down on us. They want to uphold Malcolm X and the Black panthers as heros while seperating them from our continued struggle for liberation. Im sick of it.

[lay: pinned? what pinned? @laymagdalene]

the world is antiblack. it is pervasive. and when black people pointed it out y’all told us to shut up. and now someone you built a para social relationship with got caught MONTHS ago being antiblack and y’all are silent.
