Virginia State Senator Louise Lucas is just a delight on every level

I feel that Sinners is a musical only in the sense that music is unable to be separated from the Black American experience.

A lot of the things we like in life are because of black Americans and Louisiana.

Mamdani announces a new executive order protecting New Yorkers from "abusive immigration enforcement," including requiring ICE to have a judicial warrant to enter NYC property

If you Google Kendrick Lamar you can “give him his flowers” for his recent Grammy wins 💐 Had to be somebody Black at Google that did this 🥹

Don’t be ironically racist because it’s legitimately triggering to the people on the receiving end of constant racism lol it’s quirky and funny to you because YOU will never be the one who is harmed by unironic racists 😏

GUYSSSSSSSSS! 🥹

happy black history month 🩷

As Black History Month begins, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers who built this city into the “gorgeous mosaic” we call home. Today, we reflect on the words of Mayor David Dinkins: our city’s first Black mayor (and a democratic socialist!).

So cool for 89-year-old blues legend Buddy Guy to be honored. Appearance in Sinners last year (and on the soundtrack). And just won Grammy for Best Traditional Blues Album.

Gonna share this again because it is so well written. @alisoncook.bsky.social "One of many ICE/BP misdeeds that haunt me involves the ICE agents who ate at a small-town Minnesota Mexican restaurant and then returned at closing time to detain the workers who had provided their meal."

ICE agents tried to quietly get Mexican food in Minneapolis, local neighbors and protesters found out and shamed then out of the neighborhood!

Happy 100 years of celebrating Black history!!! I plan to be extraspecially Black this month. Hell, the rest of the year yoo.

I like to say "food does not come from the grocery store," and no one knows that better than The Black Forager (now with extra Blackness cause February).

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

sorry but mamdani and cuomo should have worn blue and yellow hats, respectively

thank you for the outpouring of support! those of us laid off from Teen Vogue yesterday are now sharing our GoFundMe to help us cover our emergency expenses now that we've lost our incomes, as we get back on our feet.

And then they fired their entire political team. Gimme those flowers back 😒

YOUR MONDAY REMINDER: Black women lost 319,000 jobs between February and July of this year, the only major female demographic to experience significant job losses during this five-month period. White men saw the largest job increase 一 365,000 一 among groups.

*Drag n Drop* RIP Win10. I'm never upgrading 😭

I have zero investment in this franchise, but clearly Hollywood needs to stop letting Jared Leto.

To be clear: LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government. The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency. This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

I love when hot people do hot people things 🥰 #Survivor #Survivor49

Gift from a friend

North West being analyzed in the same predatory ways as Blue Ivy Carter because young Black girls in adolescence can’t ever exist without being scrutinized and sexualized. Smh. If you have an opinion on what those literal children are wearing… pls keep it to your damn self.

Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.

Shenanigans. #crackerbarrel #logo #epsteinfiles

I’m back and I’ve got bitching to do

Doesn't sound the least bit like slavery at all. Nope. Not even a little bit.

NYers, please vote for this man bc I can’t 😭
