I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it’s illegal for landlords to:
- Lock you out or evict you without a court order.
- Shut off your heat, hot water, electricity, or other essential services to force you out of your home.
- Retaliate against you for reporting unsafe conditions or exercising your tenant rights.
- Leave serious health and safety hazards, like mold, unrepaired.
- Discriminate against you because of your race, disability, or other protected characteristics.
They Tried to Erase Her Name. History Brought It Back.
Before she turned 25, Alice Ball changed the future of medicine.
In 1915, at a time when racism and sexism kept many Black women out of science, Alice Ball developed the Ball Method—the first highly effective treatment for Hansen's disease (leprosy). Her breakthrough gave thousands of patients hope and helped replace a life of isolation with the possibility of recovery.
But the story didn't end there.
Alice Ball died at just 24 years old, before she could fully receive the recognition she had earned. After her death, her research was carried forward by University of Hawaii white racist president Arthur Dean, and for years the treatment was widely associated with his name rather than the young Black scientist who made the breakthrough possible.
For decades, one of medicine's greatest pioneers was pushed into the background.
Alice Ball's story reminds us that Black brilliance has always been part of human progress—even when history failed to give it the credit it deserved.
She didn't just make a scientific discovery.
She changed lives.
Today, her legacy is finally receiving the recognition it always deserved.
Remember her name: Alice Ball.
A visionary. A trailblazer. A Black woman whose impact changed the world.

The independent autopsy results are in. The cause of death for baby Kohen Wiley was a gunshot wound to the torso. The manner of death has been ruled a homicide. The bullet entered his body from the right side. Police claimed the driver was driving toward them. If that were true, why was the shot fired from the side? This family deserves the full truth. Release the body camera footage and the Walmart surveillance video now. Justice for baby Kohen.
A police officer, who more than likely was going to shoot an unarmed Black man, ended up shooting himself when he pulled his gun out during an arrest🤦🏿♂️
