So nice of him not to put the pic of him portraying the one that shall not be named!! I don’t like clowns till this day. lol

It's out!

Gorgeous love. Gorgeous film. Just reminiscing.

Glad to get this

I know our names basically sound the same, but I could never have imagined this. Born in Flames has won the 2026 Anisfield-Wolf Award in Nonfiction. I don’t think I’ve ever felt more honored. Til housing stability is not a luxury. @wwnorton.com

“Ohh-wee, baby. You’ve redefined my vision of love it seems. Your love be the cherry in my chocolate-covered dream. So it seems. My oh my. Me and those dreaming eyes of mine.” Someone really should write a book about the “ooh-wee, baby”

Memorable. Especially “Take Off the Blues”

“Double podcast episode about the League of Revolutionary Black Workers in Detroit in the late 60s/early 70s. We hear from former members of the group including Herb Boyd, General Baker, Darryl “Waistline” Mitchell, as well as Dan Georgakas, co-author of Detroit I Do Mind Dying.” #Detroit

There's only one person who can get Bluesky working again

A. Philip Randolph was born #OnThisDay in 1889, a pioneering Black labour leader, socialist and pacifist. As founder of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, he advanced racial equality in unions, and was a key figure in the organization of the 1963 March on Washington.

Great collection of documents here from @nsarchive.bsky.social for the 65th anniversary of the Bay of Pigs Invasion... important warnings for today, too! #History #Cuba 🗃️ nsarchive.gwu.edu/briefing-boo...

I was expecting a much different name for this one. Something related to fireworks or constellations. Nope. I checked my identifier app and it’s just Giant Onion. Lol.

If you paid taxes for 2025, you likely paid: $124 — school lunch & nutrition programs $49 — diplomacy to prevent wars $19 — USPS $19 — Federal Aviation Administration $18 — national parks and $4,049 — weapons and war. These priorities are hurting us all. We need change. #TaxDay

"Kali Akuno—co-founder of Cooperation Jackson and a lifelong movement builder—is facing a serious and urgent health crisis. He needs immediate access to specialized cardiac care that he simply cannot get in Mississippi." please give what you can if you can! chuffed.org/project/1771...

Definitely adding to reading list

“The UDC is headquarted in Richmond. In 2025, the organization made more than $2.1 million in revenue, racked up more than $1.1 million in expenses and possessed $15.8 million in assets, according to tax filings published by ProPublica.”

We need more historians because history is one of the most powerful forms of knowledge. Just ask any autocrat why they want to control it! #TalkAboutHumanities

An excellent encompassing article about our mom by esteemed writer, Robert Hill. 👏🪬 newpittsburghcourier.com/2026/04/11/r...

Love. Was just listening to “Sadie” the other day.

"Oh, oh, oh, girl, as long as I've been giving my love to you / You should be giving me your love too, oh / But you just keep on acting just like a fool / You know it ain't cool / Don't be cruel, 'cause I would never be that cruel to you" album.ink/BBdontbecruel

Hello, there.

Everyone was surprised

Honeysuckle goodness

So many posts about who could be president. Not enough posts about the presidency as corrupting.

By taking the departments that study women, queer people, Black people, + Latinos + combining them into a single, ill-defined dept, UT has defined these populations by their lack of whiteness. Their lack of being cisgender, straight + male...These people are now the Other…an object to be dealt with.

Let’s go!!!! Number 8 is my jockey silk. My article on Black feminist thought in the Black Appalachian Commission will be up in round three. I’m so excited to be a part of KHS’s Derby!

In @wralpheubanks.bsky.social’s WHEN IT’S DARKNESS ON THE DELTA, you’ll meet farmer Calvin Head. He runs a cooperative of Black farmers in Holmes Country and talks about all the hurdles they’re facing today. There’s a hidden history behind those hurdles. buff.ly/scy4Qgr

Last night I read from my book “When It’s Darkness on the Delta” at the Juke Joint Festival in Clarksdale, MS. You could say I was one of the warm up acts for blues legend Bobby Rush, who wowed the crowd.

Happy 60th Birthday, Lisa Stansfield 🎂🎈 Forever a jam... 🗣Been around the world and I-I-I-I, I can't find my baby....

“Tupac said it decades ago…” Don’t forget that part. Mamdani purposely said his name before saying this. #blackthought

#tdih 1835 "Instead of attempting to remove the honest misapprehensions of the people, they cater to their prejudices, and take advantage of them, to gain low, dirty, temporary, local triumphs." -- Thaddeus Stevens, in speech in defense of public schools ⬇️ www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/th...

$3.5 TRILLION was stashed in offshore tax havens in 2024. $2.8 TRILLION was stashed by just the richest 0.1%. That's more than the poorest 4.2 BILLION people in the world own. That's also trillions that stayed in the pockets of the rich instead of being taxed. Tax the rich.

Finding a responsive doctor that listens is no small thing. It can mean the difference between immediate healing and a condition that becomes chronic. Medical racism lingers as life expectancy dwindles. A candle burning at both ends.

I like the one where he’s farther away and the one where he’s looking at me. Red and regal. #northerncardinals #birdsky #birds #cardinals

RACE COMMUNISM (8 episode, BAFTA winning miniseries): The year is 2144. Factional disputes led by adherents to the ideologies of Wangari Maathai, Fannie Lou Hamer, and Dr. Umar threaten the solidarity of the Black Workers' Soviet - and, in turn, the 18th International. These are their stories.

This should have been said over and over by all leaders. Glad to hear it from the Spanish PM.

some people you can recruit, other people you have to simply defeat. politics makes more sense when you accept this

And was a descendant of Elizabeth Hemings of Monticello.

The threat itself is an impeachable offense. Don’t let it slide.

We're all being held hostage by this administration.

Please don’t let this outrage wane. They count on distraction to relieve them of accountability.

Senator Tim Kaine’s office with a message to call back “during business hours” with no option to leave a voicemail. It just hangs up. Typical. It’s business to them.
