REVOLUTION BY FIRE, their graphic novel based on the 1741 NYC “Slave Insurrection” led by John Gwin & an eclectic crew of renegades, is a “riveting graphic narrative.”—@thinking4achang buff.ly/3UN3xUE

June 19th, 1865 marked the day enslaved Blacks in Galveston Bay, TX learned from Union troops they were freed — this was two years after the Emancipation Proclamation and over a month after the end of the Civil War. Today is a celebration of freedom and a time to reflect on continued healing and reconciliation #Juneteenth #CelebrateFreedom
Back stateside and feeling inspired. My new best book is Healing Justice Lineages. All Justice Warriors need to read!
