Happy BLACK History Month. I read Black books every month but I got two stacks for y'all.

First stack is books by Black authors I loved and the second are the ones I’m getting to.

#booksky

If you are a BLACK INDIE AUTHOR, reply to this tweet with a blurb about your book and a link of where to purchase it. If you are a reader please repost this! #booksky #blackbooksky #diversebooks #blackhistorymonth

It occurs to me, for no reason in particular, that I should put this starter pack back in circulation

There's an unelected, unvetted private citizen billionaire who has illegally seized control of the federal government's IT systems and locked everyone out for his own unstated purposes, and nobody cares - WHO ARE YOU GOING TO "WORK WITH"?

In case of interest in US #BlackHistoryMonth: why trans-Atlantic slavery was unlike any other form of slavery in history and why it still matters.

Inaugural post. Here's me with the cat named Zeke. I'm house sitting in Oregon, and he's my sanity in a house full of dogs. 🥴 #catperson
