On MLK Day 2021, his family posted this picture of him. Seeing him in color reminded me that our history is not that far behind us. Seeing him at home with his kids broke me.

Exasperated, I mumbled what would become the opening line to the spoken word piece, "Fathers"

Reverend Dr. King was anti-war as was Coretta Scott King and she spoke out against it publicly before he did because she was also anti-nuclear war too.

Reverend Dr. King was anti-war and the fucking NAACP spoke out AGAINST REVEREND DR. KING’S ANTI-WAR stance.

This is what they said about him then. This is what they say about us now. This is who they always have been.

Yes now I can talk about Elmer Fudd being a racist caricature initially (like most cartoons of the time. Many of them pulled inspo from the imagery of blackface and vaudeville but employ anthropomorphic characters instead of humans, like Mickey and them, or illustrate what were supposed to be Black

We all know David from Lilo and Stitch is the perfect man, perfect of hair, perfect of ass.

My hypothesis: Disney films frequently give the love interests good hair, but you can TELL most of these boys have no booty to speak of, because Disney is staffed by white people.

PSA: You can be honest about the hardship of your circumstances, proud of yourself for how you managed them, and still not romanticize suffering. Begging us to release the "strengths" that are killing us slowly.

In December, I traveled to Montgomery to visit the Legacy Museum, which traces the story of Black America from slavery to Jim Crow to mass incarceration. I wanted to understand how the museum & its affiliated sites were operating in a moment where so much of the history they present is under attack.

The Equal Justice Initiative’s historical sites in Montgomery, Alabama, show what’s possible when history isn’t subject to federal funding cuts or executive orders.

Happy MLK day, gang! Martin was a Democratic Socialist, anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist, thought white moderates were the bane of Black existence, and died on a trip to support a sanitation workers' strike!

Beware his sanitized and sanded-down edit!
Happy MLK Day!

Can people tell me if www.standwithminnesota.com is working for you? I am trying to troubleshoot reports that it isn't.

I can’t help but think of Malcolm X’s thoughts on Christianity here, and how he’d argue it was manipulated to prime Black people for subjugation, and condition us to embrace the “turn the other cheek” teaching in the face of violence
“I move off love and unity. That’s how Jesus, Yahweh walked… showing love regardless of what someone did to you. We can’t treat hate with hate.”

This man protected Jake Lang in the crowd in Minneapolis despite knowing he was a white supremacist there to incite.

Skyline! This fundraiser is 3 years and 3 months old, but it's down to the last 9% and $5990.

Being at the mercy of rideshare algos because I cannot afford more reliable transportation to the births I'm attending all over the greater (read far) Chicagoland area is eating me alive. Everything helps.
👋🏿 I'm Winifred. In 2025 I:

*Survived a MN winter w/o consistent heat/hot water
*Sold an "erotic houseplant horror" story
*Had surgery
*Did births in 3 diff states w/ 4 diff midwifery practices from off grid shacks to urban mansions to tiny apts

I'm exhausted but I'm only 9% away from fully funded.

I need malls to have a resurgence. I'm tired of ordering online and not knowing if my size is actually going to be my size. I need the youth to have a third space and a place where they can get their first jobs.

Bring back the malls!

this is an excellent example actually because just like Greenland, Hawaii should also rule itself
Good rule of thumb for friends is to imagine if China decided to start loudly discussing taking Hawaii, and how quickly you'd see red, and how unfunny you'd find it, and how belligerent your reaction to it would be. That is how Europeans and Canadians feel about this rhetoric from the US.
