Rage. Overwhelm. Sadness. Disbelief. Not surprised. Stealing lil moments of joy because these devils can't have it. Rage again. Self & Community Care. Overwhelm. Disbelief. Not surprised. Searching for the illusion of escape. Planning and plotting and teaching and learning. And tears.This tew much!

And on the plane before take off. It is fascinating and outrageous.

Checking in to share my ten cents on The Black Studies Podcast. Sometimes I feel like an outsider in my own discipline. Thankful for the opportunity to weigh in. Good stuff. And much work to do! #blacksky #blackstudies #blackstudy #africanamericanstudies #edusky

Trump and Allies Default to Racist Explanation of Deadly Air Collision President Trump blamed diverse hiring policies for a deadly mid-air collision between a commercial jet and an Army helicopter that killed 67 people

Very happy with the way @rollingstone.com and my boy @milesklee.bsky.social played this headline!

So Target chose violence. Where is the strategy to boycott the b.s.? Please circulate initiatives for alternatives, especially Black owned retailers. I really can get my toiletries and black owned products elsewhere. #blacksky #target #dei #boycott

The Attack on Birthright Citizenship Is a Big Test for the Constitution Does the text mean what it plainly says?

Trump's attempt to nullify the 14th Amendment's birthright citizenship provision is an attempt to reverse one of the most important outcomes of the Civil War, the idea that American citizenship is not based on race www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Not the "Founding Fathers"! Lord help us Black Jesus. 🙏🏾

After a Civil War over slavery.

Who is next, we need to ask? Political dissidents? Those with roots in "enemy" nations? Those who will not take an oath? What is NEW about the executive order is the door it opens to rethinking the terms of citizenship for all of us.

#Meta is trash. The gaslighting is deplorable. Trying to make us think we were following these accounts in the first place.

Opinion | Mark Zuckerberg, in with Trump now, is no longer pretending to care about diversity What might strike outsiders as a change in ethos for the company is just Zuckerberg showing us who he really is.

I had to write this. It's personal, supplier diversity was my brainchild, but it also has implications for all of us - from the types of products made, their harm, and who we enrich using their platforms.

I hope it makes you consider where and how you use social media: shorturl.at/BYa5r

If you were following #VPHarris on Instagram, know that the demon has taken over the account. Now it looks like a nation of Black people and Black women follow scumbag city. Go unfollow if you care. #blacksky #academicsky #politics

Woke up today absolutely disgusted by the majority of certain groups voting for this bumbling fool. What a disgrace. And devastatingly consistent.

#MelaniaTrump
up there looking like MJ in reverse! She said, "You been hit by... You been struck by...a Smooth Criminal!" The trumpery. How fitting. 😣 #inauguration #trump #firstlady #fashion #hotmess

Corporate Duopoly Wins Again Glen Ford: The U.S. is a corporate dictatorship where the rich have two parties and the rest of us, effectively, have none.

Thinking especially of Glen Ford this evening. He never let us forget that the US is a corporate duopoly, a “corporate dictatorship where the rich have two parties and the rest of us, effectively, have none.”

STATEMENT: CAP’s Alondra Nelson Condemns Dangerous Repeal of AI Executive Order

I wish there was emphasis on justice rather than volunteering. King urged that we serve, but not by "volunteering" for a day.

So for years I've been wondering why people drive slow in the left lane. Let me tell you! That yellow line on the left been saving me. And you! Eyesight ain't what it used to be. I'm so sorry. Just go around me! Cuz I'm a need that yellow line to guide me safely down the road. My bad.😅🤓

Julian Bond 1940-2015 Julian Bond 1940-2015 Julian The first time I sang We Shall Overcome Was in a circle On the lawn of Trevor Arnett Library At Atlanta University And by chance I was holding Your hand. We were all so yo...

Following his death in 2015, Alice Walker wrote this poem in memory of Julian Bond. Today, on what would have been his 85th birthday, I post it here.

#ClubQuaratine was a balm for the soul last night at the Kennedy Center. Surprise guests were so much fun. Rhapsody, Arrested Development, Anthony Hamilton and others. But to see the legends Big Daddy Kane and the Gawd, Rakim. SWOON. D-Nice is a gift. The full-length Shearling took me out!

The Commanders are benefiting from the 2022 name-change when the team finally admitted the original name and mascot were racist and offensive. Look at them now! #commanders #football #ancestors

So I'm here looking for a new start. Hoping to connect with my FAKEBOOK friends on here. Meta is trash. I think I'm a lil too gully for LinkedIn. :)
