James baldwin literally diacussing an immortal flaw of wanna be white class of america

Its all fake
Whiteness isnt real
Hence they commit atrocities to establish it as a thing

Whiteness is unnatural and it must be conjured

The ‘deck’ in “Deck the Halls” means “to decorate.”

But, it is not related or a shortening of ‘decorate.’

It comes from the Dutch word meaning “to cover.”

You also use it when you’re all “decked out.”

At the Civil Rights Museum today, I heard this musical rebuke to Richard Nixon written by Stevie Wonder.

I was struck by how much the words also apply to Trump.

🚨BREAKING: Judge Cameron McGowan Currie has dismissed the criminal indictments against James Comey and Letitia James, ruling that the prosecutor behind both cases was illegally appointed and lacked any lawful authority. A rare moment of the law actually holding the line.🙌🏽🙌🏽

Viola Ford Fletcher, the oldest living survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, has died at 111. She carried the trauma of 1921 for over a century and still had the courage to demand truth and reparations. We must honor her by continuing the fight for justice that was denied.

The niche of my law practice is representing women, minorities and whistleblowers in vindicating their civil rights in employment.

Having done this work for years now, I have come to understand something that I feel like sharing this morning:

Boston’s historic King’s Chapel unveiled a powerful sculpture honoring the 219 people enslaved by its early members and ministers. Truth must be told — even in sacred spaces. Acknowledging this history is a step toward healing. We must never forget.

‘Booty’ and ‘butt’ are synonyms.

‘Call’ and ‘dial’ are synonyms.

But, a ‘booty call’ and a ‘butt dial’ are VERY different things.

Does it seems a little odd that the party that violently attacked our capitol is suddenly outraged with political violence?

Alberta Odell Jones broke barriers in the courtroom and was deeply involved in the Civil Rights Movement, only to have her life violently stolen at 34. She gave everything for justice, yet never received her own. We must keep her legacy alive.

Black Americans will always find joy even when the world around us is burning.

And where joy can’t be found, we create it.

That’s one thing they keep trying to take from us and it pisses them off that they can’t.

Isaiah Hand just became the first Tuskegee student in nearly 80 years to earn a pilot’s license — training on the same airstrip as the legendary Tuskegee Airmen. ✊🏿 Thank you, Isaiah, for carrying the legacy forward. You’re proving that history lives when young Black excellence takes flight!

How does lava sound when it comes to the surface of the Earth? Listen to a lava flow oozing out of its effusive vent high on the southwestern side of #Etna, 28 August 2025. That day no visits by tourists were allowed on the site, which permitted this (relatively) clean recording

61 years ago today Mrs. Fannie Lou Hamer one of the most courageous activists of the Civil Rights Movement posed the question that echoes today with every migrant round-up by masked officers, as federal troops converge on D.C.,as institutions are threatened:

There’s just a real fervor and desire to harm us, pretend you’re not trying to harm us, and delight in the notion that the thing you’re pretending wasn’t intended to harm us is harming us when chances are it probably really isn’t. It’s a very weird obsession.
