Israel flattened Beirut in 1982.
No Hamas. No Hezbollah. No October 7 to point to then.
Just 17,000 dead Lebanese and Palestinian civilians.
Even US president then Ronald Reagan, who armed Israel, called Begin furious after seeing a photo of a 7-month-old baby with its arms blown off and said “It is a holocaust”.
They killed so many innocent people that the survivors had no choice but to pick up weapons.
Then Israel had the audacity to keep using “Self-Defense” excuse every decade.
Israel didn’t stumble into endless war. Israel built it. Brick by brick.
Own it.
Barber-Scotia College was the first higher education institution for Black women in this country. Today it is fighting to survive. The 144K Collective is asking 144,000 people to donate just $1.44 to help save this historic institution. Our HBCUs are not just schools. They are the foundation of our history, our culture, and our future.

🚨 Akademiks says Kendrick can’t keep playing the moral high ground in hiphop

Ak says Kendrick has collaborated with artists who’ve had their own accusations and controversies, mentioning names like Future, Dr. Dre, and even bringing up TDE being sued in the past saying you can’t call out the whole industry while still working inside it.
Great conversation, However, Akbar Gbajabiamila’s comment suggesting African Americans don’t appreciate the contributions of immigrants echoed white supremacist talking points. That’s NOT the general consensus, we fully recognize the role of immigrants advancing this country.
