i was told to erase it a week later because of fears i’d cause division in the church. i was not fond of church to say the least, but later found sanctuary in the political Jesus, and Black religious liberationists, who affirmed my imagination, gave me language, and taught me to pray with my feet ✊🏿

when I was 11, or 12 i drew a Black Power fist on the wall of my sunday school classroom in response to something i was feeling. i couldn’t describe what it was, but felt i had to do something to affirm myself. this was a multiracial/cultural church with primarily white leadership.

visited my childhood church recently and it was a reminder of how it inadvertently pushed me toward Black liberation theology during my undergraduate years.

i hope all the well-intentioned people in that church get free from a white-racist god.

I sincerely hope that these examples shine a greater light on the utter depravity of how US jails and prisons operate OVERALL. Because I've traveled miles to see incarcerated people and been REFUSED for no reason AT ALL. This happens A LOT.

Today, we celebrate the legacy of Malcolm X, also known as El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz, a fearless advocate for Black liberation, self-determination, and justice. Malcolm’s message of empowerment and pride continues to inspire generations.
