Challenging racism and fighting for rights. Plus I enjoy reading, writing, and birds. We must be the #resistance together.
The man that is celebrated on the right is a reason many marginalized groups are hated. #kirk #privilege #AmeriKKKa

A reminder from #JamesBaldwin. If we stop criticizing #Amerikkka how will we change it to the America that was promised? Keep pursuing the version that is truly for all.

Reminder that #policing in #AemriKKKa thrived due to two specific purposes: to catch runaway enslaved people in the south and to quash labor strikes in the north. They may say to serve and protect, but ask yourself who are they serving and protecting? We must be the #resistance.

Built into the first amendment of the constitution is #freedomofspeech which has #freedomofassembly (aka peaceful protest) and #freedomofthepress. Constitutional rights are at risks. Don’t tell me this leader is leading the party of the constitution when this is happening. We must be the #resistance

Reminder: The Republican Party is using #gaslighting and #disinformation to purposefully undermine democracy and to uplift their savior in the Cheeto-in-Chief. Don’t for the con #budgetresolution

Reminder to #boycott corporations tomorrow! Spend cash at local businesses only if you can. F*ck the #corporations be part of the #resistance. It starts at midnight!

As Trump celebrated #blackhistorymonth even though he has been removing it in the federal government, they filled the room with Black people. Internalized racism is real. I want to share this video from Malcolm X.

Those of us in America that protested yesterday boo this current version of America because we demand a better version!

“I love America more than any other country in the world and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.”

Don’t fall for it! Rise against it! Be the #resistance
February 18, 2025 at 3:34 PM
We must be the #resistance! Let’s #boycott and show these corporations the value of our money!
February 17, 2025 at 2:26 PM
I’ll start. Fuck Nazis.

Be the #resistance

What they get wrong about DEI? The D stands for diversity. Not solely race or gender identity. The ISO:30415:2021 by @jamesfeltonkeith.bsky.social has 27 types of diversity. These range from race & gender identity to parental status & life experience. It’s about equal opportunity. Follow for more.

Homework assignment for all of us: reading Peter Ackerman’s The Checklist to End Tyranny. I’m working on it again and will be working through what I can do in this moment. Boycotting and protesting are two things I can think of right now. What else can we do now, and how many will join? #resistance
January 27, 2025 at 5:21 PM
The words of James Baldwin always have such wisdom and are still relevant today. We must decide to be the #resistance. In the face of tyranny we can join or we can fight. I choose fight. I choose to not be the monster. I choose to call out injustice. I choose to fight for justice.

Follow for daily DEI tips. DEI is not about hiring only marginalized individuals. It’s learning to find pathways within your hiring process that open pipelines to diverse, qualified candidates that may not be able to compete due to demographic homogeneity within organizations. Img-FasterCapital

I shared the pyramid of wh!te supremacy yesterday. Today, it’s time for you to check in with your own racism. Where do you fall? What have you said? Heard others say? Spoken out against? Stayed quiet? The way for us to change things is start acknowledging them. This will help us be the #resistance.
January 23, 2025 at 7:53 PM
This is not only for individuals, but for society overall. We are at a point of calls for violence, with some being committed already. The journey to now had an inflection point with Obama as president (lots of things here but that was huge). The leader: Trump. We must build a #resistance together.
January 22, 2025 at 4:18 PM
@ibramxk.bsky.social sums it up (I would say nicely, but this is deeply disturbing in its accuracy). For those that always say he’s not racist or America isn’t a racist country. #amerikkka

If you’re still on meta platform insta, type #democrat into the search bar and look down the list. Notice what you see. Then do the same for the R side and notice the difference. I tried it out for you. #statesponseredmedia

Millions of Americans will fall for this because they don’t pay enough attention to how this #grifter works. Trump pushed for the ban. It was banned. Now he gets to swoop in as the hero and save the day. Younger generations will love him for it. This is looking more like state sanctioned media. #smh
January 19, 2025 at 7:26 PM
It’s official. And Trump is in position to be a “hero” even though he led the charge to #bantiktok it during his first term. It’s amazing how the government can come together to ban TikTok but can’t come together to give universal healthcare, freed education, UBI and other benefits.

It’s always necessary to push for equality and justice. It’s also necessary to share lived experiences and to listen to others when they share their stories. You don’t have to agree, but you can at least listen. Don’t let your attribution bias cloud your judgement. Listen. Learn. Respect. Respond.

“Racism is an integral, permanent, and indestructible component of this society. Because this is true, not only will we not overcome in the sense that all of us believed so fervently in the 1960's, but it also means that, Black people will never gain full equality in this country” (Bell. 1993)

When you only care because of how the person looks, what race they are, or the amount of money they have, then you are a part of the problem. #justiceforjordanneely #blacklivesmatter
