Two years ago today, the three of us began Crips for eSims for Gaza. Alice, are you reading this? (We know you are.)

Today, we’re launching something special we’ve been working on, and we’re grateful Alice was able to see before her passing: our official logo! #ConnectingGaza

[Beatrice Adler-Bolton @realLandsEnd]

Alice Wong taught us that disabled people don’t just leave memories behind—they leave infrastructure. Lineages of care. Methods of collective survival. She named the connective tissue that holds us together, even across death, even across the losses that come too fast & often.

alice wong introduced me to the 10 principles of disability justice and i think they are vital to the continued existence of the human race so i am sharing them

[Dan Sheehan @danpjsheehan]

Beloved disability rights activist Alice Wong co-founded Crips for eSims for Gaza, which raised millions of dollars to support internet and phone connectivity for Palestinians in Gaza during the genocide.

In doing so, she helped save countless lives.

RIP 💔

Writing is cool, poetry will save your soul.

Saul Williams on D’Angelo

[Shakira @jodecicry]

D’Angelo wrote the perfect love song then another one and another one and another one and another one

[Melodies & Masterpieces @SVG__Collection]

Three albums. Three eras. Infinite influence.

D’Angelo, we will miss you…

[Black Disability Collective @BlackDisability]

As I sit here this morning, Black Messiah sits on my record player and I think of the ways in which D’Angelo’s music has helped shape me and my taste. I really don’t know what to think or say other than hoping he’s at peace.

[gloria alamrew, renowned Pisces 🌒 @GloriaAlamrew]

D’Angelo’s passing is a meteoric loss for music. He was an artist that never got *enough* flowers, in my opinion. A curious and propulsive musician. Man. I’m absolutely devastated.

[Brooklyn White-Grier @brooklynrwhite]

Neo-soul has lost giants this year. I mean, actual pillars of modern sound. The bridge between what was and what is.

Grateful to them. So, so sad that they are gone.

[kendra. 🌻 @kendraxtamia]

D’Angelo dropped two back to back classics with Brown Sugar and Voodoo, went on a 14 YEAR HIATUS and came back with Black Messiah.

There will never be another.

[Nerdeen Kiswani @NerdeenKiswani]

He literally gave his life documenting Israeli atrocities, and the day after his death they erase it all. It’s evil. They’re sending the message they will erase us. They justify and then conceal the war crimes, beyond complicity its collaboration in genocide.

[Ladé @LadePlatinum]

the sound of d’angelo’s brown sugar album is what pushed j dilla to evolve from being pete rock-inspired into his eventual signature futuristic sound

this is an unreleased instrumental from the late 1994 brown sugar sessions where you can clearly hear dilla’s early fingerprints
