Whenever we get politicians commenting on protests, no matter how “progressive” they are, it’s almost always a bad take. They don’t like agitation because they are the ones being demanded to do something. And the status quo keeps them comfortable and in power

Sometimes it’s really like, do you not understand that you were born into relative safety only by random chance??

“Looking back on the past four hundred years, this nation’s story of racism can seem almost inevitable. But it didn’t have to be this way. At critical turning points throughout history, people made deliberate choices to construct and reinforce a racist America.” - Jemar Tisby

Sad and shocking news out of Kenya.

Marathon world record holder Kelvin Kiptum has died at 24 years old after a car accident along the Eldoret-Kaptagat road, according to a report from The Standard newspaper. Multiple journalists in Kenya have also reported the news.

“This was a self-involved accident where one Kelvin Kiptum, the world marathon record holder, was driving his vehicle with two passengers. Kiptum and Hakizimana died on the spot and the third person was rushed to Racecourse Hospital in Eldoret,” Elgeyo Marakwet Police Commander Peter Mulinge told The Nation. The outlet reports his coach Garvais Hakizimana also died in the accident.

Last year, Kiptum broke the marathon world record, running 2:00:35 in Chicago, and was preparing to run the Rotterdam Marathon in April in an attempt to break the two-hour barrier. He was also expected to be named to Kenya’s team for the Paris Olympics.

With my mother. Daddy’s funeral.

He wasn’t assassinated because he wanted his children to be judged “by the content of their character.”

But for dismantling racism, poverty & militarism.

He wanted corrective measures to eradicate racism, not the delusion that it doesn’t exist.

How embarrassing to live in a country where calling for a ceasefire has become a radical act. A ceasefire. This is how far the center has moved to the right. All this country knows is war. The violence never ends.
