Seems a couple of big personalities on Tiktok fueded this week (oh no!), and Dr. Kadalie's book was mentioned. We dont use Tiktok, but we do think everyone should read Modibo's books. After 65 years in the struggle for human freedom, he's got a lot to say! https://t.co/wE8JgEJO4l

Wow! Many thanks to BAR for including Modibo Kadalie's "Intimate Direct Democracy" on this list. BAR's founding editor, Bruce Dixon, was a friend of ours. We miss him dearly.

[The Black Agenda Review @AgendaReview]

Even “radical” books by “radical” authors are launched into capitalism’s diamond-dusted dreamwold, begging a question concerning the definition of who or what is indeed a “radical.”

@HFR93533255 @andrw_zonneveld @realAlexbosco @Cpl_Dont_Know Most folks from surrounding (majority African-American) communities try to ignore/avoid the Confederate stuff and just use the natural spaces of the park for recreation.

[On Our Own Authority! Publishing @oooabooks]

@thegreatgusby @jeffeto @adventurer95 You forgot to mention all the anti-Black racist monuments at Stone Mountain
