Is Juneteenth “divisive?”
Is it about race?

Yes.

Reminder: there is nothing extreme about wanting everyone to have healthcare, clean air, clean food, clean water, education, housing, and a living wage.

what scares me about all of these new laws is how much I know people are willing to just obey them. they’ll say there’s nothing we can do. yes there is. stop following orders.

For those who need a refresher: Racism is bias + power.

That's why "reverse racism" is a lie. It's the structural power of whiteness that gives racism its fangs.

When we say "crime is a social construct", what we mean is that you, as an individual, can go to jail for littering, but a corporation can poison the air, the soil, and the water of an entire town, and no one will go to jail.

We’re going to scare the shit out of that woman when the end of Heated plays. Violence might erupt 😂.

I was contacted by the College Board telling me they developed their AP Af Am Studies Curriculum before seeing my lesson plans and let me be very clear. These lessons are not for sale. They are free. Available for everyone. For free. https://t.co/z5czvNxw5t

A black man…in Colorado…who owns 1,000 acres of land…is being harassed…his livestock are being killed…his dogs are being poisoned…his family is being threatened…simply for existing. Not because he hurt anyone, assaulted anyone, harassed anyone…

Today, I saw a headline in the UK about whether women who are “brain dead” could have their bodies used to grow babies in their bodies as surrogates without their consent. A second about prisoners in the US potentially being able to reduce their sentence by donating organs…

[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

Bobby Hutton was one of the original member of the Black Panther Party.

After being bombed with tear gas and trapped in a burning basement, he came out shirtless to prove he was unarmed and the police immediately shot him 12 times and he died

He was only 17 years. A THREAD!

[Ragen Chastain (she/her) @danceswithfat]

You can't "ruin" food by adding fat to it. Dressing doesn't ruin the salad, you're still eating vegetables. Sour cream doesn't ruin a potato. The nutrients are all still there (some absorb better when eaten w/ fat!) "Ruining nutritious food" by adding fat is a diet culture lie.

[Qasim Rashid, Esq. @QasimRashid]

Stop saying it’s “a few bad apples.” That’s not the quote.

The quote is, “A few bad apples spoil the bunch.”

Police kill more than 2200 people a year and less than 5% are ever convicted of murder. This isn’t justice. This isn’t freedom.
