🖤🕊️ These aren’t just remote anecdotes for me like for many of you. This is our lives as mentally ill Black people. Donte Melton was murdered in a city 30 minutes from me I go to all the time. I have survived police encounters in crisis, & folks like us knows that’s it’s only chance we weren’t him.

Yesterday marked a year since the death of Donte Melton. He was having a mental health crisis and sought out police for help.

Tonight! Thursday, 25 June, 7 pm Eastern! in Baltimore Sarah Jackson! @sjjphd.bsky.social talking about her book A Second Sight: How the Wonder and Vision of Black Mediamakers Push America Toward Freedom LIVESTREAM: Enoch Pratt Free Library's Facebook or YouTube page. (No registration needed.)

I’m so excited about my chat with Sarah J. Jackson later today. Black people have always pushed journalism ahead in this country by telling the truth about it and I’m so glad she has taken the time to document their work. calendar.prattlibrary.org/event/sarah-...

Good morning. Your periodic reminder that this city is queer af and it’s free to read all about it.

Hello! Good morning! Wake up!

So great to talk with the great @lisasnowden.bsky.social at @redemmas.org

An absolute treat to have @thrasherxy.bsky.social talk about his new book here in Baltimore with @lisasnowden.bsky.social at @redemmas.org on a random Wednesday evening. I so wish this convo was recorded!

There’s so many people who deserve a spotlight who aren’t white supremacist rioters. It’s really not hard to find them, either.

"When the government comes down on you, it can destroy your life.” I’d conservatively estimate 5,000 Baltimore residents could say that exact phrase and their story is much more compelling than someone who invaded the Capitol trying to overthrow a free and fair election.

I knew this site was going to drag them to hell and back for this story

No mention of Korryn Gaines in this story but he’s been absolutely horrific in denying her family any semblance of justice in that case.
