Ask any of your favorite Black women writers from a decade ago why their bylines stopped appearing, and you’ll likely hear the same response: There is no place for us in media. In TV. In publishing or academia. For the majority of us, there’s no place but gone.

Dachau began as a "work-conditioned housing" facility. Auschwitz began as a "work-conditioned housing" facility. Majdanek began as a "work-conditioned housing" facility.

A few years ago when I said marching was not going to cut it, y'all got pissed off. But I've dealt with sadists before, and I know that asking them politely doesn't do anything but make them giggle while they dream up the next misery.

Boycotts, mutual aid,& direct action are the only path forward.

There are no examples of genocidaires willingly ending a genocide and Israel is no exception. Unless Israel is turned into a pariah state and diplomatic and trade relations severed, the genocide will continue.

4 frame comic. 1st frame shows the silhouette of a protest. text reads : anti-fascism isn't just about wearing cool scarves and ski goggles. when terfs* announced that they were organizing a protest at a library I was speaking at, they showed up and outnumbered the terfs. 2nd frame shows the silhouette of someone at a computer. text reads : it's antifa geeks monitoring alt-right online groups who told me that they found my address, 8 years ago. I could get to safety and make sure nothing happened, thanks to them. 3rd frame shows the antifa logo. text reads : it's an undercover antifa who told me Proud boys were planning to crash a library talk I was giving. they still did it, but we could prepare accordingly and the talk went as planned. 4th frame shows a protest with a "good night white pride" banner. text reads : it's a whole squad of anti- fascists who showed up to keep a neo-nazi group at bay from a family event I was speaking at. they stayed until the end to accompany participants to their car or all the way to their home. the police was aware of the threat but didn't do sh*t.

"What does antifa do?" My personal experience with antifa.

The quickest way to let me know that you are tone deaf and privileged is to complain that what's happening now is "not normal."

What you actually mean is that it's not normal for white people.

"We're cooked" isn't real

Repost with alt text:

There is no historical "spirit", no necessary arc towards justice. There is only us, fighting for a new world in the shadows of our ancestors and forebears, always able to change everything.

Insisting the fight is already lost is as anti-historical as any claim that our victory is inevitable

Greta Thunberg: “Israeli soldiers hit, kicked, starved, and tortured me”

• They placed a flag next to me, and anytime the flag touched me, they kicked me
• Whenever I raised my head to look at Ben-Gvir, I was kicked
• She was filmed while stripped naked

this is an incredibly ominous beginning to a future with a largely carved out federal emergency response system

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

And don't forget on Monday, October 13, we are collectively observing Indigenous Peoples Day. 🪶

There is no more middle ground. If you care about public health, you have to become a revolutionary. If you care about medical research, you have to become a revolutionary. If you care about climate change, labor conditions, the well-being of children in warzones, there is nothing else for it—you have to become a revolutionary. There is no going back to the way things were, to the future that we once anticipated. The old world is in flames around us.

If you care about public health, you have to become a revolutionary. If you care about medical research, you have to become a revolutionary. If you care about climate change, labor conditions, the well-being of children in war zones—you have to become a revolutionary.
