I will not hesitate to block you.

If you voted MAGA or were eligible to vote and didn't, or wrote in, we don't have anything in common. You clearly didn't understand the assignment.

Black Americans, it's time to turn inwards again. Build our own. Support our own. Protect our own.

Read the tea leaves and comprehend how easy it is for them to strip the grudgingly given vestiges away. The revolution will not happen on social media.

Return to your community and roots. 👊🏽

Brian, you're asking a question❓I've been contemplating. If they have time @jasminerobinson90.bsky.social and @lisamikolajczyk.bsky.social may weigh in since they teach in the space.

In the meantime, my POV is a little wordy. 1️⃣
Didja ever notice that voter participation went down when Civics was no longer taught in High School?

This is who Michelle Obama is to me - a woman who instinctively knows when a hug & encouragement is needed. I refuse to repost the midnight madman’s racist rant. I choose to do what she did for me on this day - to center her, her compassion and love for others, her beauty and grace.

Never forget the same people that were on here saying Gaza is the most important thing of our time we're telling Black people here in the US that reducing harm wasn't as important or even important at all. Instead they said we need to move away from identity politics.

the longer we get into Trump when people say something about Gaza being the most important thing, the more I just stare off into space and scream on the inside

I mean how can anyone be saying that now?

again its not about Gaza as it really is, but a magic spell for "not my fault"

By the time 2028 gets here we're going to be dealing with far more important things than an alleged "genocide".

Gaza will be way, WAY down on the list of things people care about.

And I bet you Medhi has said nothing about Sudan or the hundreds of thousands who have died because of the USAID cuts.

Reports are surfacing from US military bases around the world that soldiers are being pressured by their superior officers to go see the Melania movie.

If you had hoped that our professional military would refuse to violate the law and their oath to back Trump, it might be time to rethink that.

Na’Cole Thompson is Mayor. In Leander, Texas.
#VoteBlue
Late result for anyone still awake: Na’Cole Thompson, the Democratic candidate in the mayoral race today in Leander, Texas, has won the election.

She got 57% and won’t need a runoff, with two Republicans adding up to 43%.

I'm beginning to think that a lot of PoC have a very u lnfounded fear of Black America. The sway we have within the Democratic Party is because we've put in centuries of work in promoting freedom and democracy.

Every right that new immigrants enjoy is because of our blood, sweat, and tears.

PoC in the name of being "leftists" are not incensed. They are helping to destroy those gains that BLACK PEOPLE died and fought for over 400 years. BLACK PEOPLE have a right to be incensed at everybody.

I suspect this means they'll be sending plants and disruptors to agitate. Organizers/protestors should know the signs and be prepared.

This is troubling. Anyone offended by what Crockett said is either ignorant of American history or lacks comprehension of what that statement means to us. It's a version of "We're not going back".

If a woman had said, "Gone are the days when we're barefoot and pregnant" would that be offensive?

"Primaries are a critical piece of American elections, and yet year after year, voter participation in primaries remains dismally low."

Primary elections decide what choice voters have in the general election this November. As Obama said, "Don't boo. Vote!"

Have reviewed thousands of documents from the Epstein Files.

I have located one and only one Black child rapist, a sole Black child abuser,

amidst the entire avalanche of disgustingness:

Justice Clarence Thomas.

Zero surprise there. Gross.
