Yall gone hear me one day.
Black turnout exceeded white turnout in Louisiana’s May election.
Black voters are 31% of registered voters, but made up 34% of the people who showed up.
I was on here every day telling y’all to vote because this is what happens when Black people participate at higher rates. We influence elections the same way we influence culture.
Jeff Landry lost all 5 constitutional amendments. Even in Republican parishes, voters rejected his agenda.
Never underestimate the power of informed, organized Black voters.
And to be clear, this happened while Black folks are underfunded in this work in Louisiana.
One thing the record will always show is, I did my part.

Any young athlete of African descent who is considering Louisiana State University to play should consider the fact that the White Nationalist Party has made clear with their actions what they think of Black people in Louisiana and choose accordingly.
Black progress has never come from comfort — it’s come from friction. From pressure. From making those who oppress us feel the weight of our resistance.
In this moment, we need that energy from our leaders again.
You can’t negotiate with people who are committed to taking from you. You can’t be polite with people who are comfortable disrespecting your humanity and equal citizenship. We’ve spent too much time trying to be measured in moments that demand urgency.
Let’s be clear about the reality: this season requires intensity.
If you can’t overpower the bully, you make it costly for them to keep showing up. You apply enough pressure that they think twice before ever trying it again.
That’s the kind of energy that doesn’t just make noise — it moves people to act.

Misinformation thrives without context. Understanding this is key to navigating today's platforms and appreciating historical movements like the founding of the Democratic Party. Context is everything. https://t.co/O2irJDVYFT #RolandMartinUnfiltered#BlackStarNetwork
🇨🇺🇯🇲Statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cuba
Cuba regrets the decision of the government of Jamaica to cease medical cooperation, yielding to pressure from the U.S.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cuba reports that, on March 4, the Foreign Ministry of Jamaica communicated to our Embassy in that country the unilateral decision of its government to terminate the health cooperation agreement that has linked both nations for decades.
With this action, the government of Jamaica yields to the pressures of the government of the United States, which is not concerned about the health needs of the Caribbean brothers.
Cuba deeply regrets that in this way a history of fruitful and sustained collaboration is disregarded, one that has brought countless benefits to the Jamaican people, who are now deprived of receiving the basic and specialized health services that Cuban collaborators provided.
In response to the step taken by the government of Jamaica, the government of Cuba has made the sovereign decision to proceed with the return of the Cuban Medical Brigade. These health professionals leave behind an indelible mark and return to Cuba with the satisfaction of a duty fulfilled and the permanent willingness to assist wherever their spirit of solidarity is required.
Cuba’s work in Jamaica is an eloquent example of genuine cooperation. In the last 30 years alone, more than 4,700 Cuban collaborators have provided medical assistance on the Caribbean island. Currently, the Brigade was composed of 277 professionals whose work has had a tangible and profound impact on strengthening the Jamaican health system.
The historic results of this collaboration speak for themselves:
· More than 8,176,000 patients treated.
· 74,302 surgical procedures performed.
· 7,170 births attended.
· More than 90,000 lives saved.
Likewise, through the Operation Miracle program, present in Jamaica since 2010, the sight of nearly 25,000 Jamaicans has been restored or improved. Cuban cooperation has also been decisive in projects for the control and prevention of diseases such as malaria and in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.
The most recent example of this dedication was seen after the passage of Hurricane Melissa, which severely affected the island. In those difficult circumstances, the Cuban Medical Brigade remained firmly at their posts, many of its members working for more than 72 consecutive hours and actively joining the tasks of recovering hospitals and communities.
Faithful to the historic relations of brotherhood and solidarity that unite us with Jamaica, Cuba reaffirms its unwavering commitment to the Jamaican people, who will always be able to count on the selfless cooperation of Cuba.

Africa is building a wall... Made of trees.
8,000 km of green defiance stretching from Senegal to Djibouti: it’s called the Great Green Wall - a plan to stop the Sahara desert, restore dead land, and lift 100 million people.

@Ziggys_Duck@AndreRoyo@traychaney@RobertRayWisdom My bad was thinking the kids were in season 3 not season 4. That's a shame would have been even more historic. When think about people like Bird and Michael B from the first season. Happy that Melvin Williams is there though, would have been cool to put Snoop beside him.
Nearly 471,000 Georgia voters were removed from the rolls in a sweeping 2025 purge and we are taking legal action.
Black Voters Matter Fund and two Georgia unions are suing Brad Raffensperger after he refused to turn over key records tied to the purge. Transparency isn’t optional. Voting rights are on the line.

History Made.
225,000 people have early voted in Harris County.
Out of 2.6 million registered voters.
That means 2.3 million people still haven’t cast a ballot.
140,000 Democrats.
84,000 Republicans.
And 31,000 people showed up just yesterday — the highest single day so far.
We know how this works.
Black voters show up strong in the final days.
You have until polls close today, and Friday is the last day of early voting.
Governor.
U.S. Senate.
Lt. Governor.
