27 years ago today, MF DOOM's "Operation: Doomsday" was released.
MF DOOM’s debut solo album, and the one that established the masked persona. Dense internal rhymes over dusty, sample-heavy beats, with a comic-book frame around the whole thing

32 years ago today, Digable Planets' "Blowout Comb" was released.
Digable Planets’ second album, darker and more jazz-oriented than the first. Conscious writing set against heavier, less radio-friendly grooves.

26 years ago today, Reflection Eternal's "Train of Thought" was released.
The debut album from Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek as Reflection Eternal. Conscious lyricism over Hi-Tek’s soulful, sample-driven production, and a Rawkus-era landmark.

My latest @SportsCenter essay on @Reese10Angel.
The one they tried to make a “villain” has always been a winner at every level she’s played. On the eve of her biggest challenge yet — and one she quite literally tweeted into existence.

"Revolutionary suicide does not mean that I and my comrades have a death wish; it means just the opposite. We have such a strong desire to live with hope and human dignity that existence without them is impossible." -Dr. Huey P. Newton

This is what the British called "civilization."
April 1953. Mathare Valley, Kenya. They suspected the village of hiding freedom fighters. So they brought in bulldozers. Flattened every home.
They didn't just steal the land. They erased the people on it.
And 70 years later, the UK still has military bases in Kenya.
The empire never left. They just changed the uniforms.

On this day in 1966, Bobby Seale and Huey P. Newton founded the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense.
More than sixty years later, the continued relevance of those demands laid out in the BPP’s 10 Point Program is a damning indictment of how little the material conditions of oppressed people in the United States have fundamentally changed.

The record that put 'The Revolution Will Not Be Televised' to a band, and the story behind it.
