Spent at least an hour today doing one of my favorite things - buying kids' books😄 This one was my personal favorite in the bunch, We Care: a First Conversation about Justice. It's a part of a series covering concepts like gender, disability, race, love. #booksky #blackbooksky
Book cover for 'We Care: a First Conversation About Justice." The background is light blue. There are illustrated images of children and adults in the four corners of the cover. They are participating in different communal activities: sharing food, protesting, helping a child cross the street. The authors names are on the bottom: Megan Madison, Jessica Ralli, & Sharee Miller.

I hadn't even seen his remarks and I just *knew* Mahama was going to fold this agreement into his "Pan Africanism" scam. Between this + his and Akuffo Addo's remarks at UN events, it's clear that the elite are trying to recapture Pan-Africanism.

He needs to be slapped for saying this.
Ghanaian officials have defended the deportation agreement as a gesture of pan-African solidarity. President John Mahama has said Ghana accepted deported West Africans “under exceptional circumstances, in line with Ghana’s long-standing Pan-African ideals and unwavering commitment to regional solidarity,” adding the country acted out of “moral responsibility” and “humanitarian principles” to offer temporary refuge for those in distress.​

The tweet where Meg Indurti @megindurti.bsky.social says this + an excerpt from the @democracynow.org interview where Amy Goodman quotes her in conversation with Robin D.G. Kelley. (The Kelley interview is worth your time) www.democracynow.org/2024/11/7/ro...
Screenshot of Twitter (aka X) post from user @megindurti reads "if you are someone who was able to overlook the genocide and cast a vote for kamala harris, then you already understand how a conservative was able to overlook Trump's extremism to vote for him." So I really want to talk about the question of class, which I think is most important. We have a class that’s suffering, but we don’t have a class that thinks of itself as a class. If we had a class that thought of itself as a class, then working people would say, “We refuse deportation. We refuse racism. We refuse transphobia,” because that’s what the class does. Solidarity is what’s missing — the sense that we, as a class, you know, have to protect each other. Trump is seen as the person who can fix things, the person who represents the CEO who could step in and solve

Freeman Park, the land stewarded by her family. (I drove up before dawn and took this photo a few years back).
The beach at sunrise: the sun is at the horizon coming up over the water, waves are crashing against the sand, and there are clouds in the sky.

what was the reason ???
Screenshot of an exchange on Bluesky. Original Post states: "Umm... I am visiting DC right now and just walked a mile by myself after dinner, in the dark, and was totally safe. What is wrong with these people? The drama and histrionics are exhausting." Quoted reply says "Because the point is to terrorize black people." Original poster replies "And this brown woman wants the record to reflect that they are including us in their terror." Quote-poster finishes the conversation, "You just said you had a great night out. // Look, it's fine. I'm glad you're safe and good." Gif of Cardi B, a light skinned woman with her hair slicked back. She is yelling. Bold white text reads WHAT WAS THE REASON?!

I'm just watching episode 3., "Love is Never Easy." This scene is so cute. #TheGildedAge
A Black woman with her hair styled in a late 19th century updo and wearing a black-and-white dress (also of that time period) is sitting across from another Black woman who is just out of frame. With her chin down, and her gaze upward, she is giving the other woman a knowing look. The text on the bottom of the screen reads "He had to ask around to find out about you."

A black-and-white image of a light-skinned Black man (George Jackson) smiling. Below his image is text that reads: “Freedom means warmth and protection against harsh exposure to the elements. It means food, not garbage. It means truth, harmony, and the social relations that spring from these. It means the best medical attention whenever it is needed. It means employment that is reasonable, that coincides with the individual necessities and feelings. We will have this freedom even at the cost of total war.” - George Jackson

Piedmont Park. Couldn't relax like I wanted to but it was nice seeing others doing it. #BlackSkyOutdoors
A gazebo on water with trees in the background. A black person is sitting on the edge of the gazebo with one leg hanging over the water. Tall city buildings in the background are framed by trees on either side and a lake. In the foreground, a person relaxes on a bench with their hands clasped behind their head. Ducks float through a lake. The lake is lined on all side with trees.

A photo of a lake during the daytime. The lake is framed by the branches of a flowering tree. A pair of blue sneakers and a striped blanket are on the grass between the photographer and the lake.

Since she's trending. Can we revisit this moment #QuintaBrunson🥹🤤

This Joe Rogan fan referring to International Women's Day as Women's Appreciation Weekend is ABSOLUTELY SENDING ME 😆😆😆 #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlind8
Screenshot from an Instagram story. A skinny white woman with a blond wavy bob is posed in front of a beige couch with a painting above it). The woman is wearing a formal royal blue dress. She has her right hand on her waist and has her eyes directed away from the camera. The caption placed above her head reads "I have a lot of thoughts about this reunion..." The caption at the bottom of the image reads "All I can say for now is having your voice silenced on national television during women's appreciation weekend hits DIFFERENT."

About a dozen dancers wearing black hoodies, sweatpants, and face coverings, are performing on a stage. Standing on the hood of a black car behind them, one dancer is lifting up the flags of Sudan and Palestine which have been stitched together and have 'SUDAN' and 'GAZA' written on them. Behind all of them, is a barely visible crowd in the dark, with pink, purple, and blue colored lights scattered throughout.

Apparently, it was one of the performers on stage with him. (Very cool image via @saeeddicaprio.bsky.social on Twitter) #Superbowl #Halftime #Kendrick
In the foreground are dozens of dancers in all black clothing, standing on different levels of risers. At the top, one dancer is standing with the flags of Palestine and Sudan raised up. In the background is a packed arena. There are flashes of light throughout the crowd from people recording with their phones.
