Book: A Taste of Power. A Black Woman's Story by Elaine Brown

Chairwoman Elaine Brown turns 83 today. She was the first & only woman to lead the Black Panther Party.

And she led it during its most turbulent time when Huey was exiled in Cuba & COINTELPRO had decimated its ranks.

She also oversaw the expansion of its survival programs.

Happy birthday to her

Racism is written all over this country’s history.

There is absolutely no cleaning that up, no matter how much people try to WHITEwash U.S. history.

Just like DR, how are you celebrating independence when you were later re-colonized?

Fun fact:

You know the panhandle of Oklahoma?

That used to be part of Texas. But when it joined the Union they had to give it up to conform to the rules of slavery. That panhandle was just a bit too north of where slavery was allowed geographically.

It became known as "no man's land."

As Texas celebrates its Independence Day, let's not forget why Texas declared independence.

It was to be a slave-republic since Mexico had abolished slavery 7 years prior.

Six Flags got its name because Texas switched hands six times:
Mexico
France
Spain
Independence
Confederacy
United States

"It felt like Sojourner Truth’s hands were pushing me down on one shoulder and Harriet Tubman’s hands were pushing me down on another."

😂😂

This is what happens when the vernacular is stolen from the culture and loses all meaning

BLACKS FUCKING RULEEEEEEEE

See what I mean

Sinners just might get that Best Picture Oscar

I want Black people to always present the awards for Black people 🥹

The way Viola Davis just announced Michael B Jordan 🥹

and this is why i pay the good brother @bamaslymm.blacksky.app every month & only use other apps when i can't find what i'm looking for

And he was right! 😅

I don't want Woody Harrelson to ever give a speech for anything again
