#bhm#blackhistorymonth#celebrateblackhistorymonth
Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future. As we mark 100 years of celebrating Black history, let’s honor the sacrifices of the leaders who came before us, and recommit ourselves to continuing their work.
ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. The deaths are variations of the same fatal theme.
🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING: Protesters in Los Angeles just projected an anti-ICE video onto a building.
And it wasn’t just any building.
It was Twin Towers, an ICE-linked detention facility where LASD actively collaborates with ICE for deportation screening.
This is what resistance looks like when people stop pretending everything is normal.
🖤❤️💚 Honoring Kwanzaa & the (Seven Principles) that guide unity, and collective responsibility: Unity, Self-Determination, Collective Work & Responsibility, Cooperative Economics, Purpose
Creativity, Faith

Hanukkah is a Jewish holiday known as the Festival of Lights & celebrates the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem. It commemorates the miracle in which a small amount of oil burned for eight days. Lighting the menorah illustrates faith, resilience, & religious freedom.
