I'm going silent for #BlackHistoryMonth.
Instead of tweeting, I'll be retweeting others.
But especially Black Women.

Every time folks talk about Black folks and our “qualifications”, I’m reminded of the legend Coach Thompson.

Here’s @AOC on IG tonight discussing how @workersjusticep /LDU’s win can inspire low-wage workers nationally — and notes local news’ role (& @THECITYNY’s reporting in this case) shining a light on inequality + elevating “good news” of people gaining power in their workplaces

My first campaign ad, ‘37 Seconds.’ #JustLikeMe
I hope this ad works to not only destigmatize the use of marijuana, but also forces a new conversation that creates the pathway to legalize this beneficial drug, and forgive those who were arrested due to outdated ideology.

My father didn’t just happen upon death.
White supremacists assassinated him to silence his voice & stop his work of eradicating the “Triple Evils”: Racism, Militarism, Poverty.
Those who unrepentantly benefited from these evils railed against their eradication. They still do.

Today, the incoming AG fired, among many others, the entire Conviction Integrity Unit. With no notice. I found out at 10am. Two of my colleagues found out at 4pm. I’m so sorry to all the people we didn’t get to help.

There is a lot of speculation about what could happen it people like Kyle Rittenhouse are allowed to get away with murder. But, as usual, it's never "if" but "when"
A brief history of white vigilantes at Black protests.

Most of you have heard of Crystal Mason, the Black Texas woman sentenced to 5 years prison for inadvertently voting. Her vote never counted, but she was sentenced anyway.
Meanwhile white MAGA voters are getting off w/wrist slaps.
A thread on the systemic racism behind this:

What does Kyle Rittenhouse have in common with Ahmaud Arbery's killers, Jan 6. insurrectionists, anti-vaxxers, the opioid epidemic & the anti-CRT movement?
These are just a few examples of why we need to address the lack of values in the white community.

Madiba’s succinct position on the crediting of the Former Apartheid President, Mr FW de Klerk’s “heroism”.
I’ll leave this here as is. – at Johannesburg, South Africa

This is great advice for everyone but especially Black people at the doctor

There’s a wink-and-nod game being played right now tht those who acknowledge the construct of race are being racist/race obsessed, that CRT is bad because it “forces” people to acknowledge the role of race in a society built on it. This 700 pp book is a *survey* of US race laws.
