Here is the video for Shine! Inspired by my friend Deborah Frieze, who worked in activism too hard for too long - until she pushed the computer out of the way and danced!

Touring the UK and New England from July. Tickets in bio - share with a friend who wants to shine 🙂

Imagine a Democrat calling for the deportation of a Jewish Republican.

You can’t. It would never happen.

Our political and media elites talk nonstop about antisemitism while totally normalizing and amplifying the worst and most vicious Islamophobia.
Sickening:

Wednesday night this lady was above our bed. Took me 30 mins to catch as a recovering arachnophobic. Last night removed a wasp nest from under yurt at 4am (up with baby) swift cut from shovel removed the nest and hopefully killed none. I hope tonight is quieter and am happy to have not killed.

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

This is an underrated post.
when you see a Black person on social media naming racism, as a white person your response should be: let me listen to this person who has some historical insight into the identity i’ve been socialized into so that i can break from it and become a righteous actor in history.

Need inspiration and some soul nourishment? I’m grateful that this Thursday 8th May at 3pm EST/8pm UK @alastairmci will be joining our ‘Stick together’ single launch party; where does music come from, and what might it take to get radical now? I’ll post link Weds in this thread.

Rest in power Dr. Jawanza Kunjufu. This man's books were blueprints growing up. He wrote over 40 books, mostly dedicated to uplifting and protecting Black youth. He is a giant in our culture and I am humbled to have stood on his shoulders.

We did a ten day trip to Indiana to be with my wife’s family. On the way there my impulse was to drive all 800 miles in one day; I got sick and baby had a melt down. On way back we stopped at Niagara Falls for Night, had breakfast over looking them and went soft and are all healthy. Choose kind!
