@BlkLibraryGirl @JasonMott Thank you @BlkLibraryGirl! Your remarks about how you pray in a nontraditional way made me think about decolonization convos going on within Christianity and really made me start to think about the connection to double consciousness. It was a privilege to hear you speak!
@JasonMott and @BlkLibraryGirl I had a question for you both in the #AntiracistBookFest that didn’t get asked and I was hoping you would be able to answer it here. How do you think decolonization efforts connect with double consciousness?
.@Interior is committed to strengthening our nation-to-nation with Tribes and their communities. Yesterday, I was honored to stand with Chief Anne Richardson and the Rappahannock Tribe in Virginia as 465 acres of their ancestral homeland at Fones Cliff was returned.
It’s been a minute since I’ve been on my personal Twitter account. Last week, I decided to deactivate my Facebook account for 7 days. Honestly, it’s been the best decision for me. I’ve preferred Twitter but was hesitant to make the switch. Think I’ll stay awhile.
@SuperPWCS I want to encourage all of you guys that are students to tweet your school board rep if you are upset about what is happening with Dr. Walts. Make your voices be heard by the people in charge of the school division.
@HamiltonMusical I’ve seen this company TWICE! I saw them in DC and loved them so much that I drove to Pittsburgh to see them again. Bryson Bruce is phenomenal as Marquis de Lafayette/Thomas Jefferson.
@MarkWarner Sen. Warner, I beg of you. Please actively work on this issue of mass shootings. This is a true national emergency. Life is precious and no one deserves to get senselessly gunned down. This should be the primary concern of Congress.
The news has just overwhelmed me with depression lately and I see its effects on others, as well. Everyone I see, even people I don’t know, I can tell are just stressed out. Everyone shouting, no one listening, and I fear any hope for change is wasted on my generation.
Tonight’s Million Dollar Question: can you consider yourself an ally/companion of minority groups if you are lacking in knowledge about their history in this country AND are not pursuing that information?
I recently discovered the writing of Elena Ferrante through her Neopolitan novels. The way she captures the ebb and flow of friendship between two women is a thing of beauty.
#WhitePeopleAgainstRacism why the hell is this trending 💀💀 it’s the literal bare minimum to be against racism. This hashtag is the most cookie-beggar shit and unless you’re actively putting yourselves in harms way for us, I’m not gon celebrate this lil shindig ya got going on
