But yes….keep Niggafying yalls memes. Its sooo entertaining

Well, the Patriots literally allow their jets to be used for ICE deportations.

I cannot be the only person thinking about how Surya Bonaly was treated for doing the same back flips on the ice that these white boys are getting applauded for at the Olympics today

And Surya would land on one skate in her backflip!

FAMU can't use the word Black on anything posted around campus related to Black History Month, to stay in compliance with Florida state laws against DEI. Black students can't use the word Black at their Historically Black College during Black History Month.

I feel like Los Angeles is a place where people expect ICE to happen because the kidnappings have been happening to my home city for decades, so there’s less media attention to it now. and I want folks to see that in LA, Latine students are organizing major protests & the police are attacking them

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

Fondly remembering the months of weirdness/unhinged comments we got from Pritzker fiends on this app and others for simply (and accurately!) covering state police attacks on protesters outside Broadview. Godspeed to everyone in Minnesota facing the same from the Walz fan club

Historian Jarvis Givens on Who Made Black History Month www.kqed.org/forum/201010... Givens says the act of preserving Black stories has always been political, always been about power, and always been a tool for liberation. #BHMat100 #tellthemwhatwedid and who we are.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

Concentration camps: stories of as many as 50 people to a cell — men and women in some cases — with no windows and limited airflow, a single camera-monitored toilet, aluminum blankets, no showers and poor quality food.

The Washington Post just laid off its entire award-winning photo team. They were our eyes in places we'll never see. It's a horrifying loss at a time when lying governments, propaganda and AI slop are on the rise.

And here’s what a lot of folks aren’t ready to hear. THIS is why the US is becoming a fascist state. There’s fascists in every country. But what allows them to take hold here is that we don’t have an opposition party. If we don’t refuse to vote for these people anymore, this won’t end.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The land was stolen and then they stole people from OTHER lands to build their stolen land for FREE 🙄

Elizabeth, a 10-year-old Minnesota girl, spent a month detained at the ICE facility in Dilley, TX before her release last night w/ her mom. Dilley now has a measles outbreak and hundreds of other kids remain detained. Elizabeth has flu-like symptoms and her mom has hives, a school official told me

As the Illinois primary election draws near, mail-in voters may need to submit their ballots earlier to ensure they are counted under a new U.S. Postal Service rule.

before ‘sinners,’ there was never a movie nominated for 16 academy awards. fixed it for you. now, shut up.

In 1974, Mary Wallace made history as the first woman to drive a CTA bus. The Englewood native remained on the job for 33 years before retiring. #BlackHistoryMonth

Secretary Noem needs to be impeached and she must be held accountable for the viciousness she has unleashed on our communities.

"[C]inema is part of our resistance." "Ahmad Film House is the first cinema to open in Hebron since the 1930s." "[S]ettlers did not stop harassing us in the two weeks [after the cinema opened], with attacks occurring almost daily." #WestBank #Palestine #Israel #Apartheid #Media #EthnicCleansing

Measles reported at a Texas ICE detention center where 5yo Liam Ramos was held. Measles is airborne with an R₀ of 12–18—one infected person can spread it to up to 18 others. 1 in 5 unvax'd patients require hospitalization. DHS says cases are quarantined—but overcrowded, poorly ventilated 1/2

DAILY MEMO: 'They're Going To Kill Him,' Toddler Says, As Border Patrol Arrests Her Father @eltragon.bsky.social

NEW — Yet another “Operation: Midway Blitz” case has been thrown out of federal court. Oak Park attorney Scott Sakiyama received a petty citation in October for allegedly impeding Border Patrol agents. Magistrate Judge Heather McShain dismissed the case last month. thetriibe.com/2026/02/case...

Woman with legal status taken from her family home in St Paul by ICE, flown to Texas, held for two weeks before being ordered released by a judge. She lost her job. She's afraid to go outside because agents keep coming to her home. www.kare11.com/article/news...

did she go stand next to folding chairs at the end?!? a queen. ✊🏽😂

"I was just doing my job." Independent journalist Georgia Fort faces federal charges stemming from her reporting on a January 18 demonstration at a St. Paul church, where a senior ICE official works as a pastor.

2017 throwback to exactly 9 years ago today: Atlanta airport, protesting the Muslim Ban in Trump term 1. Who could've seen this shit coming, I ask -- except for anyone paying even the slightest bit of attention.

the nod to richard smallwood at the end of the d’angelo/roberta flack tribute was a lovely touch. we’ve lost musical giants this past year. may they all continue to soar high. #Grammys

Israeli bulldozers begin demolishing a number of Palestinian homes in the town of Tarqumiya, the occupied West Bank, forcibly displacing its owners.

A government-commissioned study last year found that extreme cold weather over several days was associated with an 11% increased mortality rate in prisons, with a particularly sharp rise in suicides.

When I saw pictures of Liam Ramos with his Spidey backpack and bunny hat, I felt an overwhelming responsibility as someone who works in superhero comics. Please do check out the art in #Comics4Liam and visit comics4liam.com to support Liam and groups helping other immigrants like him. ❤️💪🐇

GUYSSSSSSSSS! 🥹

chicago: has anyone seen any updates on the south shore families forced out of their building in december following the ICE raid? any ongoing fundraising?

Happy Black History Month

chicagoans, don’t forget to cast your final vote before 2/14.

sing a song

Unfortunately, it seems to take a member of Congress' personal intervention to get one kid released. Fortunately, we have a few hundred members of Congress. Maybe every one could "adopt" a kid and their family.

FROM THE ARCHIVES — It’s Black History Month 🔴🟢⚫️ Every Chicagoan should know the history of Jean Baptiste Point DuSable. His family’s settlement at the mouth of the Chicago River is the heart from which the city of Chicago was built. thetriibe.com/2022/02/the-...

Each day I will honor a Black hero. 15 at the time, a now 19 y/o Aaren 'Aquamayne' Rudolph from Montgomery, AL, jumped out of a riverboat and swam across the water upon receiving the signal to help the lone security guard who was attacked by multiple white adult men. Get up there, young blood. 🫡

❤️ this is a testament, in part, to having knowing liam’s name and *that* picture. has anyone seen a list compiling names of young people abducted by ICE?

…until all children and families are home…together. ✊🏽

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.
