Found this today while researching race in Louisiana - State vs. Treadaway (1910). https://t.co/FnYKlneCo5 Also, have you ever heard of a “griff”? #colorism #legalizedcolorism #blackhistory

@AlliPatter Always and when I forget, they remind me. This semester, one class wants to create a playlist.

She was belligerent & condescending talked to us like we were children. I was so offended & embarrassed that I asked to speak to her supervisor & she said, “Go down there,” directing us to a man who wasn’t her supervisor. 3/4

@USPS @USPSHelp Worst treatment ever at Jupiter, FL on Military Rd. Never had an issue with anyone at this or any location. Actually never been treated so rudely anywhere. My sister & I requested a shipping estimate & the #USPSEmployee immediately began yelling at us. 1/4

She kept telling us what label to put on the box & didn’t try to understand what we needed until the 3rd or 4th attempt to explain. But, that didn’t stop her from yelling & rudely pointing at us. I asked why she spoke to us that way & she said we didn’t understand her. 2/4

Sunday vibes: I stumbled across this 2015 @aspenideas video of @wyntonmarsalis & @JonBatiste. It’s an amazing history lesson on jazz & some spellbinding performances to boot. Next step, finding nearby concerts to experience them in person. #fingerscrossed https://t.co/HIrDayHntu

Finishing @nkjemisin’s Broken Earth trilogy as the country discussed climate policy was definitely an interesting experience. But it is such a wonderful series. Love her writing! #afrofuturism #ecocriticism #AfricanAmericanliterature #mustread

@redclayscholar I taught a course with this theme last fall and gave an @NHCEducation on it this spring. So much more attention is needed in this area.

@EnricoNBruno Congratulations, Enrico!! This is wonderful news!

So many black people - men, women, and children - across this country have been imprisoned and executed for so much less. #RittenhouseVerdict #GuiltyManWalking #America

Have you ever fallen in love with a movie so fast that you pause it because you don’t want it to end too quickly? That’s me right now watching #TheHarderTheyFall. Not even 15 mins. in and I’m HOOKED!! And I haven’t even seen @ReginaKing yet!
