Our monthly dialogues, workshops, and other offerings investigate the ways that white supremacy is gendered.

Every time I teach this book I am astounded by how useful it is to my students, how readable, how many important questions it helps us dive into. Grateful to @dmcguire13 for writing it and @prisonculture for telling me about it. Highly recommend. https://t.co/M43Az180Zk

@germanrlopez This kind of biased and pro-police coverage should have no place in the @nytimes - policing that“target[s] the people and places most likely to be violent” has always been an excuse/code for racist practices that do more harm than good for impacted communities

[WhiteNoiseCollective @conspire4change]

@DLeonhardt @germanrlopez Your coverage of this issue completely misses the impact of an undermined and underfunded social safety net and is unforgivably pro-policing, which has been repeatedly proven to do more harm than good for impacted communities.

MLK Day is the perfect day to remind everyone that another name for “Critical Race Theory” is “Actual American History”.

The sudden attempt by CMs @reidtreva and @lorenmtaylor to pretend they care about police violence is the most disgusting political code switching I’ve ever seen. Here’s my promise as someone who has been in the trenches for almost two decades: I’m gonna call it out ERRYTIME

If you didn’t support voting rights this week, don’t be quoting MLK next week.

Look how “essential workers” quickly become “low skilled workers” as soon as wages start to be discussed.

One year later we remember that the United States is powered by amnesia —Black people have spent more time in jail for weed than have the white nationalist insurrectionists who tried to overthrow the government #January6th

[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

Can someone identify the period in the history of policing where it wasn’t violent & racist? In what period did police not have card carrying members of white supremacist orgs such as the KKK in their ranks?

[realcatbrooks.bsky.social @realcatbrooks]

Botswana's President Dr. Mokgweetsi Masisi revealed that the first four cases of Omicron variant in Botswana were from four Visiting European Diplomats.

He stated that Western countries banning flights over this was an act of neo-imperialistic thinking.

[Black Lives Matter DC @DMVBlackLives]

Deeply heartbreaking. Rest in power. #bellhooks
