This page is focused on racial justice and reparations for ADOS. It has little to do with my personal life for those wondering why I talk about race so much.

Fought off 6 machete armed men to protect 37 sleeping orphans.

24-year-old Anthony Omari woke up to find a group of armed thieves in his bedroom at the Faraja Children's Home in Ngong, Kenya.

It was the orphanage which he ran with mother Martha Bosire, that was housing 37 children at the time.

It was the fourth break-in that month, so Omari was ready this time. He grabbed a hammer he kept under his bed and charged at the men, forcing them outside.

But as he turned back to calm the crying children at the door, one of the attackers struck him in the face with a machete.

Despite the horrific wound, Omari managed to lock the front door behind him before passing out.

The injury required 11 stitches and left a long scar from his forehead down his cheek.

He was discharged from the hospital after two days and returned to the orphanage, he didn't want to leave them for too long unsafe.

Omari's story went viral when a student posted on it on reddit, asking for any help, and what happened next was incredible.

Within days, more than 3,600 donors from all 50 U.S. states and 46 countries had contributed over $80,000.

The funds paid for a new fence, security guards, beds the children had been sleeping on the floor and other essentials.

Anthony Omari later earned a civil engineering degree, started his own construction company, and continues to visit the children at Faraja regularly.

This is a perfect example of Genesis 50:20 "What the devil meant for evil, God meant for good"

Mississippi paid Black students to leave the state rather than integrate #OleMiss. Then those same people came back with degrees from Ohio State and Michigan State and ran circles around everybody. The plan to keep them out accidentally built the most qualified teaching force in the Delta. Drop your state in the comments if your teachers had that same energy. Send this to somebody who thinks Mississippi don't have history worth knowing.

@BreakingBrown aberration or they go the other extreme and act like ppl had no choice but to participate. Neither scenario helps us get justice imo.

[Darisha Sims @darsims3]

@BreakingBrown think it dilutes the horror of it. 3.) It pigeonholes us as people and as actors. I welcome documentaries, books, slave narratives, lectures, etc. about slavery but fictionalized accounts or dramatized versions? No thank you. They either treat the abuse of slaves as an

Watched the movies Top Gun and Top Gun: Maverick?

The first Top Gun competition was held in 1949. The white pilots competed with the latest state of art aircraft while the black pilots were forced to compete with older obsolete planes.

After 3 days of competition The Tuskegee Airmen team of : Captain Alva Temple, 1st Lieutenant Harry Stewart, 1st Lieutenant James Harvey, and 1st Lieutenant Halbert Alexander (alternate) were announced the winners. The official results for first place were recorded as “unknown” for nearly 46 years.

There was dead silence in the room. Not one of their colleagues applauded this accomplishment. The victory was swept under the rug and the trophy ‘went missing’ and was not seen by the public for 55 years (until 2004). Introducing the real Top Guns.

73 years after the historic win, the American Association of Retired Persons’ Wish of a Lifetime organization met with Harvey to grant his “wish” – that his team be widely recognized.

🚨BREAKING: Caregiver SAT on 16-month-old Toddler K*LLING her on her FIRST DAY At Daycare While Scrolling On Phone!

📍North Carolina

30yo Alexandra Coffey at Creative Beginnings Daycare FORCED 16-month-old Maddy Mitchell face-down on a nap mat, threw a blanket over her head, and LAID HER FULL BODY ON TOP (torso & neck) while SCROLLING ON HER PHONE until the toddler’s legs stopped moving!

Then she LEFT the helpless baby under that blanket for nearly 3 HOURS without checking.

Maddy was found already in early rigor mortis. Medical examiner ruled it HOMICIDE by smothering + compression asphyxia.

Coffey was charged with involuntary manslaughter.

Maddy’s family just filed a wrongful death lawsuit against her. The entire daycare got shut down.

How does a “caregiver” do this to an innocent baby on her very first day?!

Chemotherapy kills cancer cells. It also kills the immune cells that kill cancer cells. Most of oncology has accepted that trade-off. @DrPatrick never did. He built Anktiva, an IL-15 agonist that activates and expands your NK cells and T cells without triggering the suppressive cells that protect tumors. Saudi Arabia just approved it for lung cancer. First country in the world to do so.

I've been using IL-15 intratumorally in combination with other immunotherapy agents for years. What Dr. Soon-Shiong is doing at the systemic level, we're doing at the tumor level. The future of cancer treatment isn't about finding better poisons. It's about unlocking what's already inside you.

@flowidealism I think it's coming out of school able to think for yourself. Knowing enough to know what you don't know and knowing how to find the answers for yourself or how to get the resources you need. I also think it's being able to reason and articulate your viewpoints logically.

“When K.J. Gross (left) died earlier this year, his best friend, Kaleb Klakulak, was devastated. And when Kaleb, now 12, learned that his friend’s mother couldn't afford a headstone, he decided to help. Kaleb sought out odd jobs and set up a PayPal account asking for donations. Eventually, Kaleb handed his friend’s mom, LaSondra Singleton, $900. “I cried because it was unexpected. I cried because I’m trying to figure out things from day to day,” said Singleton. “I can see his final resting place. I have a place I can go and be with him.”

BREAKING: Hunter College Professor Allyson Friedman caught on HOT MIC dropping BLATANTLY RACIST comments about Black students!

While a Black eighth-grade student testified against her school’s potential closure, Friedman was overheard saying:

“They’re too dumb to know they’re in a bad school.”

She continued: “If you train a black person well enough, they’ll know to use the back. You don’t have to tell them anymore.”

Friedman later apologized, stating the views are not her own and she fully supports the students fighting school closures.

The kids on the Zoom call were STUNNED. NYC officials called this abhorrent, blatantly racist, and despicable — especially with children testifying.

This is Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been imprisoned by ICE for a year.

He was about to get new prosthetic legs when he was kidnapped… and they won’t let him have them.

His health is declining & there’s been almost no media coverage.

No protests. No noise.
