In 2025, in the 1860s, in the 1930s, in the 1960s and 70s... it's as if Black folks have a long tradition of antifascism

I need to watch RuPauls drag race. What is the streaming service that it’s on? Why is it so difficult to keep track of these things?

Key word: "unanimously"

"The court unanimously found that Israel as an occupying power is required to fulfill its obligations in under international humanitarian law, including to ensure that Palestinians have essential supplies of daily life including food, medical supplies and shelter."

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

“I paint paintings of Black people, so I feel like no matter what, there's a statement there. Because each painting I put out is correcting a narrative of absence, of something that wasn't there,” says artist Amy Sherald.

For those asking about this year's setup, my retired mom is our primary gardener thanks to my severe asthma & allergies. (I wear a mask and gloves with all skin covered to garden.)

We used mini greenhouses like this one, but you could build your own.

Welcome to Issue 216 of The Continent

Raila Odinga was nicknamed Agwambo, the “mystery man”. Over and over, through crisis after crisis – and handshake after handshake – Odinga would live up to that moniker. Now Kenya must reckon with life without him.

BREAKING from PP

We found immigration agents have held more than 170 *citizens*

The govt doesn't track citizens held. So we did. We tallied:

Nearly 20 kids, two w/ cancer

More than 20 citizens held for day or more, incommunicado

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.
The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

There’s nothing like taking those 15 minutes of a busy day, and taking time to mop the floors. Whatever you’re doing now can wait. You deserve to find peace in your floors.

I once heard someone say, “don’t show up to work with your hair wet because it makes people imagine you being in the shower”

And I just thought to myself, wow. What an asinine thought.

Among the most hideous & ubiquitous historical fables taught in this country are about the “discovery” of America and the “settling” of North America by pioneers. But there’s even more.

Explain to me why “conversion therapy” is banned in 28 countries and ABA is not, when they have the same creator (O. Ivar Lovaas) and utilize similar if not identical principles, techniques, and goals (forced assimilation).
Autism $peaks is the largest and most popular Autism organization (among allistics), who continues to be 100% in support of ABA. They have lobbyists who push ABA as the “gold standard Autism treatment.” It utilizes same practices as “conversion therapy,” which is currently banned in 28 countries.

This was a genocide.
Jews Muslims and Christians have always been there. Israel is a European colonial project. And an apartheid state that has committed a genocide. Holy books have no role to play in international law.
You don't need a holy book to know that Jews were in Israel a lot more recently than ancient times.

I cannot believe you all cannot see the absolute trauma that this experience is. I cannot even comprehend why someone would do that, to take the time out of their day. Perhaps this is trauma. I don’t know what to say. Seems like a cry for help.
