Today marks the 61st anniversary of “Bloody Sunday,” which occurred on March 7, 1965, a pivotal moment in the American Civil Rights Movement. During a peaceful march in Selma, AL, demonstrators were brutally attacked by state troopers. This event led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Bernard LaFayette, who died Thursday, laid the foundations of the Selma, Alabama, campaign that culminated in the passage of the Voting Rights Act. He was a Freedom Rider and helped found the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. n.pr/4csIbWh

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

As a kid, I was dismissive of Rainbow Brite as fluffy “girl stuff” but reading the back story of her creator gives me a very different perspective This is someone who embraced all that cheerful, bright color in defiance of the horrors she survived May her memory be a blessing 🌈🦄

FUCK ICE #iceisthegestapo

So sad to share that legendary colorist Tatjana Wood has passed away at the age of 99. Her pioneering painterly touch graced scores of DC & Vertigo series. She was truly one of a kind and a special friend. May her memory be a blessing.

In Star Trek Deviations (IDW's what if) Threads of Destiny, an alternate take on City on the Edge of Forever, the Guardian sends Lt Uhura to an early Civil Rights Movement moment. You can easily hear Nichelle Nichols' voice & will recall how unflappable Uhura is in most situations. Beam it up!

Happy New Comic Book Day! Rogue 2 and Spawn: Rat City 22 are both in stores today. If you're not snowed in and can get to your shop, you should pick them up. They're both awesome!

Rev. Jesse Jackson's "I *am* somebody..." remains one of the all-time great pieces of 20th century rhetoric / agitprop And he could deliver it at a Black separatist meeting, the Democratic National Convention, or on god-blessed Sesame Street (see below 🥹) RIP to the Voice of the Voiceless

Vox’s Astead Herndon is back in his hometown of Chicago to speak with Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker about why the Democrats lost in 2024, Pritzker’s own weight-loss journey, and everything in between.

This book changed my life. La Voz De MAYO wouldn't be possible if it weren't for MARCH. Thank you, @natepowell.bsky.social. Thank you for making something so meaningful with the late, great John Lewis.

1. Trump certainly wants to fully rig elections. 2. He has no actual plausible plan to do so. 3. We should absolutely take the threat very seriously and actively do what's possible to protect elections and democracy. 4. What's actually likely is success or failure at the margins; every bit counts.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

I bought my first fountain pen yesterday. I feel fancy.
