Iβm not being sucked in by these stories again. We gave them 100s of excuses. They gave us an insurrection and a felon for president and Elon Musk.

Most immigrant groups (including Black immigrant groups) think they know about Black Americans but they learned what they know from a White American perspective:
Blue resist accounts nonstop yelling for Kamala and/or Obama come βsave Americaβ is beyond annoying especially because they couldnβt convince their own community NOT to vote for Trump - TWICE π«€πππ€«π€π·

Erased... by #ThePoet #Poetry #Writers
As usual, your poem #Erased is very prophetic, on point, but deeply depressing. Can you write one that tells how we survive this latest attempt at erasure? ππΎ

No matter what they say
The most aggravating thing in all this (to me) is the sheer number of you, who believe Black people got high-paying jobs on account of their skin color and not their qualifications. That standards were lowered for us, when the truth is the bars are 10 times higher for us.

Well the award for most cowardly, boot-lickingest academic society has squarely gone to the American Society of Microbiology, who has taken down features of various non-white scientists. Absolutely pathetic behavior. Those articles are now coming up as βunder reviewβ. Truly sickening cowardice here.
