📡 Du Bois: “Destroy ignorance—or it destroys us.”

Black history is the core dataset of human history, not its supplement.

Before the Nakba, there were books in Jaffa. Music in Haifa. Students in Jerusalem. Orchards in Galilee. Cafés in Ramallah. They didn’t erase emptiness—they erased abundance. Every face is testimony. Every archive, refusal.
Budgets are confessionals. SNAP keeps people alive; ICE keeps a machine of fear alive. One month of feeding the poor = one year of funding ICE. That’s not policy, that’s a moral indictment. #MoralLedger #AmericanPriorities
There’s no solution that supports ICE remaining a thing. We need to abolish them completely and get rid of the idea that we need more policing and more ppl living off taxpayer dollars while not providing any service to taxpayers.

George Washington never chopped down a cherry tree — that was a moral fable invented by a biographer decades later.

Paul Revere never yelled “The British are coming” — most colonists still considered themselves British.

The reason why I detest AIPAC is that they convinced the world that any mention of Netanyahu or Genocide is antisemitic . They have decided that any dissent about murdering Palestinians is antisemitic.

It is not antisemitic to want a country to stop killing children or wanting Netanyahu arrested.

Tupac Amaru Shakur was the Paul Leroy Robeson of his generation.

The worst thing that happened to Tupac, and by extension, Black America, was Suge Knight.

They didn’t raise their hands because they wanted the South to win — they raised them because a white preacher made it clear: dissent could get you killed.

But think about it, would you prefer homelessness over enslavement?

Terror disguised as prayer. Coercion masquerading as faith.

I object to any and all aggression against Venezuela. Trump does not have the authority and...

Oh yeah, it's fucking wrong. Remove Trump before the blood on his hands includes your children too.

Pete Hegseth didn’t authorize a strike. He authorized a murder. I wore the uniform; I know the difference. Two unarmed men in the water is not a “target,” it’s a crime scene. And this dude struts around with a flag pocket square like a Macy’s mannequin auditioning for valor.

Time to spend all day watching movies!

Alien (1979)

An absolute classic, one of my favorites. Scifi Horror at its best.
HR Giger's design is awe inspiring, Weaver is powerful force. Wonder and terror awaits.

We're watching all of them today though. Join me, won't you? Who else is a fan?

Black Codes didn’t “restore order.” They rebuilt slavery with paperwork — criminalizing rest, movement, labor, even childhood. Freedom was legal in theory, illegal in practice. New shackles, same fear of Black autonomy. #ReconstructionTruth #AbolitionLogic

NC isn’t “red” — it’s being carved that way. These maps split Black communities just to predetermine power. Barber calls it political violence, and he’s right. Democracy can’t breathe when the lines themselves are rigged. #VoterJustice #StopTheMaps

ICYMI: North Carolina Groups Push Back On Racist GOP Voting Maps
The change would result in almost 80% of North Carolina's U.S. House delegation being held by Republicans, in a state that is almost nearly a 50-50 split at the ballot box.

U.S. forces didn’t “interdict” — they executed. Survivors burned in the water because Hegseth said “kill them all.” When drug runners become “combatants” by decree, law dies first. Empire always tells on itself. #WarCrimesWatch

MAGA’s leadership is collapsing under its own incompetence, corruption, and unraveling power.

The Solar System is not a walled garden.
It is a front porch on the Milky Way.

Material from other stars drifts through all the time.
We’re finally catching them in the act.

The first Black revolt in the Americas wasn’t Havana or Haiti — it was Santo Domingo, 1521. Christmas night, Africans rose up, armed themselves, and terrified the colony so deeply Spain invented its first “Black Code.” Our resistance is older than their laws. #1521Revolt #AtlanticTruth

In the preface to Charle L. Black Jr.'s "Impeachment", Max Glutman's studies on the Barotse society are mentioned.

This led me to dig a bit to understand why.

Charles Black wasn’t name-dropping Max Gluckman for style points. He was signaling something deeper:
