Toni Morrison:
So you don’t know anything at all about the type of preparation (mental, logistical) that it takes in order to actually pull off long term action, do you? Montgomery, Birmingham, and Selma didn’t just happen out of the blue. Getting people to the point of sustained collective action takes practice.
True values come out in times of crisis. Some organizations are leaning in, others are leaning out.
A group of mostly Quaker religious organizations succeeded in temporarily preventing federal immigration agents from operating around their places of worship across the U.S.
Please feel free to get in touch if you have questions. We’d love to receive your proposal! #anthrosky
Recent events have reminded me once again how ridiculous it sounds when I hear folks complaining that “Defund the police” is not a viable or realistic political message.
Transforming Anthropology, the flagship journal of the Association of Black Anthropologists, seeks to advance scholarship across the four fields of anthropology and beyond. www.journals.uchicago.edu/journals/tra...

Palestinians have a right to their land, a right to return, a right to self-determination, and a right to liberation.
Somebody had to say it. This is at the heart of why it’s so difficult for so many people to get enthusiastic about supporting the Democratic Party. They simply don’t do enough when push comes to shove to distinguish themselves from the folks they (rightly) demonize.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, before she was known as an author, Toni Morrison was a Random House trade editor who almost singlehandedly introduced black radical activists to mainstream American readers.

When it comes to these executive orders, I need more states with Democratic governors and majorities saying, simply, “That shit is illegal. We ain’t doing that. Sue us,” and go on with business as usual.

Pesticide-free, and you can’t get his Black Gold dates anywhere else.
