Never forget when Ruby Bridges integrated her elementary school a white woman woman held up a black baby doll in a coffin & another white woman threatened to poison her.

The entire school year Ruby was only allowed to eat food that she brought from home, for her own safety.

A queer black trans women Tete Gulley, was found hanging from a tree in Portland, Oregon on May 27. Police are will not investigate due to “lack of public interest” and have ruled her death as a suicide. We want justice and we want answers! ✊🏾

THEY CALLING EVERY ONE OF THESE HANGINGS A SUICIDE. Never in my life have I heard of a man hanging HIMSELF on a tree. Let alone MULTIPLE BLACK MEN HANGING THEMSELVES ON TREES IN THE SAME WEEK. DURING A CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT. THIS IS NOT COINCIDENCE.

U.S. security forces brutally beat 16-year-old child Jahmel Leach (now has his jaw wired shut), tased him in the temple, stripped him (abused him), and then threw him in an adult cell while refusing him medical attention or his parents. #BlackLivesMatter https://t.co/HAxaTJYyzb

This was organized and led by Indigenous people.

Columbus literally started a genocide against them.

What a sick thing to say about those taking down monuments to their own oppression.

A statue of a slave owner gets pushed into a river - The country starts an investigation to find the suspects and spend days trying to retrieve it.

Shukri Abdi gets pushed into a river and drowns to her death - No investigation

WE DID IT.

Louisville Metro Council UNANIMOUSLY passed #BreonnasLaw to END no-knock warrants.

This is a big step for justice—but it’s just the start.

So that what happened to Breonna never happens again, we need Breonna's Law everywhere.

Tonight, Louisville led the way!

A black 20-year-old student Justin Howell is in critical condition with brain damage after @Austin_Police deliberately shot him in the head; then shot the medics helping him.

Resign @Chief_Manley & @MayorAdler.

Let’s create perspective.

This was 65 years ago. That means these two are somebody’s Grandmothers right now. What do u think they taught their children and Grandchildren?

[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

African moors, who conquered Spain and ruled it for 700 years, were responsible for bringing Europe out of the dark ages and into the Renaissance.

While Christian Europe had a 99% illiteracy rate and with only 2 universities, the Moors had 7. They introduced education to Europe.

[Rebecca Kavanagh @DrRJKavanagh]

Kalief Browder died 5 years ago today. He spent 3 years on Rikers Island waiting for trial on charges that were eventually dismissed because he could not afford bail.

In the middle of an uprising against massive racial injustice, @NYGovCuomo wants to go back to that system.
