In bookstores today, LOA’s one-volume edition of Octavia E. Butler’s Lilith’s Brood: The Xenogenesis Trilogy, featuring the classic novels Dawn, Adulthood Rites, and Imago. Genius works of Afrofuturism, they ask enduring questions about colonization, gender, technology, and the future of humankind.

ANTIFA:

I cancelled my Disney Plus Hulu subscription today. I commented on the feedback box that the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel was an un-American attack on the First Amendment and it served to undermine our democracy. Now I need to send that monthly contribution to my local PBS station.

Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:

Correct. Again.

And now, ep. 367E: DEATH OF AN EX brings Vandy Myrick back to her sleuthing ways – fresh off the grief from losing her daughter, now she must deal with another shocking loss. Her charismatic ex. @deliapitts50.bsky.social @minotaurbooks.bsky.social turnthepage.blubrry.net/2025/09/11/t...

A new mystery on my radar, @deliapitts50.bsky.social's "Trouble in Queenstown." #WritingCommunity #writerslift #writers #BookBoost #bluesky #Booksky

“What to the Slave Is the 4th of July” (RIP James Earl Jones)

Happening at a Home Depot near you. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. And they’re coming after the working people. Not criminals. Make sure everybody sees these images.

So thrilled with this nomination for Trouble in Queenstown! Thank you, Gabriel, for this gorgeous graphic. Congratulations to all the nominees!

It is masterful.

Things are heating up at That Noise at 2 AM, where we’re talking to the one and only S.A. Cosby about Southern fiction, funeral homes, and his new novel, KING OF ASHES. jamesdfhannah.substack.com/p/36-five-fo...

I'll be watching this Youtube video series on @hcrichardson.bsky.social 's channel! youtube.com/playlist?lis...

'Director Rowland adds, "Working on ‘She Rides Shotgun’ was about honoring Jordan Harper’s brutal, beautiful novel while finding a cinematic language that could carry both its savagery and its soul.' Sounds like you should probably buy the book now to be hep on opening day.

June 14 we have a simple message: No thrones. No crowns. No kings. social.demcast.com/s/j4zuZcOV

Thank you! Yes, Bahni Turpin’s narration is phenomenal! The next Vandy Myrick mystery, Death of an Ex, comes out July 15. You can pre-order it from your favorite bookseller today!

Important voice in the resistance.

Jackbooted thugs. Fascism on full display. “ICE” arrested the mayor of Newark, NJ—just because he’s a Black man. That’s not immigration enforcement. That’s a brownshirt police state. CALL your members of Congress and demand they rein in ICE: 202-224-3121. This ends now. tinyurl.com/Newark-mayor

I love this. A more interesting and potentially consequential twist than the one in Conclave. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/08/u...

Disgusting move.

This #EarthDay2025 seems a good moment to share some Gerard Manley Hopkins: “What would the world be, once bereft Of wet and of wildness? Let them be left, O let them be left, wildness and wet; Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet”
