Confirmed some important news today: The Baltimore Book Festival will have a funnel cake truck on site this weekend

enormous development in the Cop City RICO case today: the Judge indicated he would be dismissing *at least* the RICO and Arson counts of the indictment, which would eliminate 56 out of 61 people from the indictment. Official answer tomorrow, and it will certainly be appealed.

Good afternoon. Next week is the Baltimore Book Festival. For the upcoming @baltimorebeat.bsky.social calendars, I couldn't fit every event in there to keep them varied with activities and whatnot. However! I'll share some events that I will be there for.

Marsha P. Johnson, despite her role and legacy in LGBTQ+ liberation and Black Queer liberation, is still an understated figure. Hopefully, that ends at this panel with the launch of Johnson's first definitive biography. redemmas.org/events/tourm...

As the genocide in Palestine continues, it's important to hear from the youth about their conditions, their humanity, and their dreams. They are not numbers; Free Palestine. redemmas.org/events/pam-b...

As an avid comic book reader, I'm doubly excited when there're discussions that dissect and critique culture through comics. This discussion about Iron Man and the military industrial complex has piqued my interest. redemmas.org/events/spenc...

Watching "The Black Press: Soldiers Without Swords" and learning about Robert S. Abbott founded my love for the Black Press. This conversation about The Black Press with Black Press family descendants is a must for me. www.eventbrite.com/e/rereading-...

Currently, I'm reading "The Brother You Choose", a series of interviews and discussions between Eddie Conway (RIP) and Paul Coates, so I'm excited to see him in person and learn more about the Black Panther Party from him and author Jonina Abron-Ervin. redemmas.org/events/jonin...
