The death of Jason Arday hit so close to home that I had no words yesterday. But I woke up with words.
To be a prominent antiracist Black scholar is to know you are a target, almost totally surrounded by resentments. You know that at any point, the attacks can come like a lynch mob.
And if you die from all the attacks, the media still calls the attacks on you “accusations” to wash their hands of the blood. Your lynchers announce your death as if they had no role in your lynching.
My latest at The Emancipator.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
To lynch means when an angry crowd or mob kills a person without a legal trial or lawful justice, usually by hanging them from a rope.
The tragic death of Jason Arday has been reported as a suicide following his resignation over allegations of plagiarism & data fraud.

Aliya Rahman is a U.S. citizen who was violently arrested by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis. Rahman says she repeatedly told agents she was disabled, but they ignored her pleas for medical attention or other accommodation.

What is happening in the Twin Cities and the Great North Star State is heartbreaking to witness. These events have cost lives and shaken families — and we must call for accountability, transparency, and protections for all people. This moment demands that we reflect honestly on what our values truly are. My thoughts, prayers, and deepest condolences are with the families of Renée Good and Alex Pretti.
I stand with the people of Minnesota.

Scam alert: People in Minnesota are getting fake msgs from a phony “Minnesota Department of Vehicle Administration DMV).” That agency doesn’t exist. DPS and DVS will never send a text asking for money. Don’t click links. Delete the message.
