I did a thing. You should share it for all of Twitter to hear. #jheneaiko

[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

On this day in 1944, George Stinney, at 14 years, became the youngest person executed in the US in the 20th century. He was so small they had to stack books on the electric chair.

Due to no evidence, his conviction was posthumously vacated 70years after his execution!

A THREAD

[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

“Soooo you mean to tell me that someone down your ancestry line survived being chained to other human bodies for several months in the bottom of a disease-infested ship during the Middle Passage, lost their language, customs and traditions, picked up the English language as best they could while working free of charge from sunup to sundown as they watched babies sold from out of their arms and women raped by ruthless slave owners.

Took names with no last names, no birth certificates, no heritage of any kind, braved the Underground Railroad, survived the Civil War to enter into sharecropping... Learned to read and write out of sheer will and determination, faced the burning crosses of the KKK, everted their eyes at the black bodies swinging from ropes hung on trees... Fought in World Wars as soldiers to return to America as boys, marched in Birmingham, hosed in Selma, jailed in Wilmington, assassinated in Memphis, segregated in the South, ghettoed in the North, ignored in history books, stereotyped in Hollywood... and in spite of it all someone in your family line endured every era to make sure you would get here and you receive one rejection, face one obstacle, lose one friend, get overlooked, and you want to quit? How dare you entertain the very thought of quitting. People, you will never know survived from generation to generation so you could succeed. Don’t you dare let them down!

Give this to your young people who don’t know their history and want to get weak!

It is NOT in our DNA to quit!”

I have been seeing all the girls from high school that I had little crushes on Facebook recently and they all look like their moms now...which is not a good thing

[Morgan Edwards @motedz]

I must be getting older because going to music festivals sounds worse and worse with age

Does everything have to be monetized?

@RDUAirport American Airlines. Gate C17

[Morgan Edwards @motedz]

Once again, another thing breaks down at RDU. Last week it was a jet bridge and today it’s the tractor that pushes the plane back. @RDUAirport do you even give a shit or nah?

[Morgan Edwards @motedz]

@joellemeaghan It wasn’t great!

[Morgan Edwards @motedz]

Everybody painting this girl like the Gillian when she is just saying what most black people wont say out loud. For that, I will co-sign her responses because she ultimately should be able to say what she wants

[The New York Times @nytimes]

From @TheAthletic: LSU star Angel Reese said she doesn’t “accept the apology” from first lady Jill Biden and that she and her teammates should celebrate with the Obamas instead of going to the White House. https://t.co/JDKB5hO121

4 weeks left of this tour. Blessed but ready to be on a beach in the Bahamas!

How it started How it’s Going

[Stephen A Smith @stephenasmith]

Hey @Reese10Angel, I mean absolutely zero disrespect to the First Lady, but you are 1000% correct. That is a bad suggestion. Runner-ups don’t get invited to the White House. Why are we trying to change it now? I completely agree with you, Angel.

[jas alston | magic @jasTHEEcreative]

Period.

[Van Lathan Jr @VanLathan]

I KNEW IT WAS COMING! THE CRYING! WHEN CAITLIN DOES IT SHE "HAS SO MUCH SWAG" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA BOO HOO

[Morgan Edwards @motedz]

If you don’t have a good lady who can show you a different perspective then what do you really have

[Morgan Edwards @motedz]

@RDUAirport I’m sure y’all don’t care but I’ve had multiple instances where the jet bridges at your airport have operational issues. It’s inconvenient and frankly annoying when people are trying to get to where they need to go.
