The next day? Joy launched The Joy Ann Reid Show—independent, unbought, unbossed. Through her own company with Jason Reid.
She refused to be silenced.

Why? Because Joy put Palestinians on TV when nobody else would. Because she talked about Gaza, police violence, and Trump in ways that made power uncomfortable.

They didn't just fire Joy. They laid off her entire staff. People who'd been with her through 3 shows. People who fought to tell unapologetic Black stories on primetime.

This or That with Deesha Dyer (forever White House Social Secretary):
Hip-hop or house? HOUSE Philly cheesesteak or DC mumbo sauce? CHEESESTEAK ("Are you dumb?") State dinner or movie screening? MOVIE SCREENING: Community organizing or institution? COMMUNITY
That last answer tells you everything. 🧵

They Can't Demolish What We Built. They demolished the East Wing in 72 hours. But they can't demolish this.
On institutional memory, Black women's labor, and what endures when we build in community. #TeachTheBabies #Podcast

We deserve better. We deserve a government elected by the people who work on behalf of the people (not the ultra privileged focused on hoarding power). #TeachTheBabies that democracies are worth defending and that the power always resides with the people. ✊🏾

"Be still, listen, connect."
Jada Ward’s message for this moment.
Not more action. Not constant motion. Just stillness, community, and presence.
Maybe this is God saying: take a second.

Uncle Jimmy didn’t just write.
He warned, wept and witnessed. He held up mirrors and encouraged us to engage with ugly truths.
Honor his birthday by reading his work—not simply quoting him.
