Harvard University launched a $100 million project to examine the university’s ties to slavery across three centuries.

Researchers and academics involved are quitting or being fired, alleging the university is getting in the way of the work https://t.co/H7zKLVn4IC

@spiceyicey27 It’s called “nouveau riche”

@emeka_greene @PayMyMfnPhone @swirlposse Looks like fluorosis. Not a hygiene thing. More to do with where you grew up

@gerardtbaker Learning from this thread that apparently only Americans use “Econ” as short for economics 😭

[M. Malik Shaw @dmv_writer]

@CestGray I feel like this is reductive rhetoric is why “gentrification” isn’t an effective mobilizer for most folks. It’s always black people being “pushed out” which isn’t really what’s happening. Black people, like any other group, make conscious decisions to move. Change is constant

@BrianBooms @awealthofcs Speaking from real life experience of growing up poor with overworked parents, we did a lot of frozen dinners… just heat up the over or pop them in the microwave . Much cheaper than delivery which we considered a luxury for certain paydays lol

@TheDecadentLife @AndySlater Tbh this is the ideal outcome. Immigrants literally should be making an effort to learn the local language of the place they choose to live in. We need more free ESL instruction probably to help them more successfully assimilate

@reignofglitter @MissSassbox Lol how you know what they can afford?

@j_xsii @IteBunko @beyoncegarden Lol I mean…not quite. He wasn’t “the first person to write a book that was black” and Carver didn’t make peanut butter 🤣

[Heidi N. Moore @moorehn]

That's not true. She could do something. She has a platform and she could speak for Palestinian rights, make phone calls to her contacts, use her power to help other people. But she only thinks of enriching herself and increasing her own status. That's why no one's buying her martyr act.
