It didn’t feel real. They felt like toys except that they moved… I’m thankful they moved slowly.

“What radicalized you?”
Screenshot of ebook: white screen with black text. Pink Highlighted text reads: “The continuation of the human race is predicated on perpetuating patriarchal narratives and false ideas of love that involve a woman giving up her freedom and her name, so she can do unpaid labor for the rest of her life. We have built an entire society with a language of equality but not a practice of it.”

Baltimore! Never did I ever think I’d be recommending a production of ANNIE to… anyone… but the national tour playing at the Hippodrome is quite polished. With a hometown hero title character, it’s worth checking out.

I wil never understand the US American micromanaging of where people 💩. These rooms contain a single toilet and sink each. Why do they need to be gendered (and exclusively so). And then the compounding assumption that only people who identify as women change diapers.

Really cool instance of home popping up while I’m across the globe. I went to the famed House of Slaves on Gorée Island off the coast of Dakar yesterday. And in the upstairs museum exhibit, there’s a picture of none other than Morgan State University’s choir. Baltimore is everywhere.
Photo of hanging placard with Singers in Blue & Orange Morgan choir robes singing with a pianist in the foreground. Photo of hanging in placard in museum with a photo collage on one panel, #BlackLivesMatter on an other, and Batik-style prints on a third.
