Take Atlanta's privileges, multiply them by 6, and distribute them between Houston and Chicago.
Beyoncé’s choreographer and one of her dancers said thieves broke into their SUV and stole “jump drives containing unreleased music, footage plans for her show and more” before her Atlanta shows

Target would really rather tank their whole business than take any sort of corrective action or accountability. It's miraculous to witness such unfettered foolishness particularly when it hampers corporate greed- their preferred activity.

The outlining process for this feature film script I've been working on has probably been the hardest hurdle to get over, but I finally have a detailed document to work with, including my working title, logline, synopsis, and themes I'll be covering.

A whole lot of progress. ✨

The old adage about not shopping where they won't hire people who look like you is real. All of the tools of the civil rights era being necessary again less than a generation later because Republicans voted for white nationalism is nothing short of vile.
One thing I would like to see from Black America is a whole scale cultural boycott. If a school doesn't want to teach our history, then let's not do business with them, if a business doesn't want to hire us, then let's not give them business, etc. What do you think?

One very easy way that graduates of complicit universities could show their dissent would be to withdraw donations from the university and make very public and vocal donations to HBCUs and community colleges. Donate, and then tell the university why you’re doing it on socials or by email.

Meanwhile, a Black boycott is tanking Target stock while plenty of y'all are still up and through there. But hope y'all had fun on that Target run!*

We ARE taking action, just not with those who only want us as shields. No thanks.

The devil couldn't reach me, so he somehow made me an aspiring screenwriter and filmmaker from a low-income community with two college degrees that I haven't made much use of just yet because the job market is so trash.

And of course the National Museum of African American History is under attack and our foundations, federations etc will do a lot of nothing after rushing to release reports and be public bullies about how much they were doing

I'll admit that I've been out of the loop with the news as a result of real life circumstances...but finding out that ScreenCraft is shutting down, having taken one of their free courses last year, is incredibly disappointing. #scriptsky

If you're boycotting t*rg*t note that they will probably increase ad spend to African American communities to rope you back in. Peep the manipulation and reject it, or block their social accounts in advance!!
