Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this.
Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

Today’s black book spotlight is Chain Gang All-Stars by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah. It is a devastating & poignant critique on the US prison system and the systemic racism contributing to incarceration through a dystopian fiction lens that your heart and brain will never forget.

To those unfollowing since I began my book spotlight series for Black History Month…✌️
I’m not sure who you THOUGHT you were following, but on this account we uplift and celebrate marginalized voices, including books written by black authors. (and that’s all year ‘round folks).

In 2025, celebrating Black History Month isn't just about honoring Black legacies—it's an act of defiance against an administration that seeks to erase Black voices, downplay our struggles as a direct consequence of white supremacy, and deny our progress.

This is such an amazing idea. Now is a great time to build and strengthen our communities.
I’m starting a new book club! The Strength in Community Book Club will meet on Sunday evenings online to discuss books that look to Indigenous and Black authors for topics of community building, reciprocity, mutual aid, abolition, resistance and intentionality. You can sign up on my website.

Normalizing spelling out what people actually mean when they cite DEI rather than letting them hide behind the safe cover of a euphemism that's been sapped of meaning

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

PSA ‼️
A black author writing a contemporary romance with black characters does not make it urban fiction novel. Black Romance is not synonymous with Urban✌🏾

Dear MAGA,
The inauguration will be a private affair. Just Trump & the broligarchs in the rotunda.
No seating for you.
No special events to acknowledge your support.
Not to worry. There will be emails later urging you to buy Trump coins, shoes, bibles, hats etc.
Keep that cash coming.
Be best.
