Allow me to introduce myself.
~ I’m a Covid conscious anti-capitalist, HBCU graduate-CAU🐾, womanist that talks mostly about disability rights, music 🎼 , books 📚 written by oppressed ppl especially Black books, and occasionally TV 📺.
Also one of my favorite pastimes is to block ppl so play nice 😉

Black women started 2025 with an unemployment rate of 5.4 percent. They ended it at 7.3 percent — the highest rate in four years.
Black women’s unemployment is now equivalent to White women’s rate during the bleakest moments of the Great Recession. https://bit.ly/45uZOk3

This is a great thread!!!
This is why we had Jim Crow instead of truth and reconciliation after slavery ended. People are so quick to absolve anyone who pays lip service to changing their mind about human rights violations instead of letting them live with the social consequences of their words
Bluesky idea: if people who didn't agree with you change their opinions so that they do agree with you, why not be happy that you are making progress - rather than complaining that they are "only just catching up"?

If this were about your favorite breakfast food then maybe we could. But y’all will be debating someone’s literal humanity and then wonder why ppl aren’t joyful at your very late & insulting realization.

You’ll feel less confused if you admit to yourself that some people don’t care about the suffering of others, and some people like it.

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.
This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.
Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.
Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.
ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

This!!! I just saw the statement from the NBA and they didn’t Keith Porter
Watching Keith Porter Jr. and other people of color who have been murdered by ICE being erased from these conversations in real time is beyond exhausting, but proves a long standing historical point about Black folks invisibility to white folks until it’s one of them is diabolical.

So, y’all are finally seeing how violent police are with us, all day everyday.
They patrol and terrorize Black and brown communities JUST like you’re seeing in Minneapolis right now.
We begged you to defund the police.
You called us hysterical fear-mongers.
