    Whenever I die, please don't allow my image to be co-opted by the power establishment. Don't let my name & likeness be used to argue for peace in the absence of justice. I believe uncompromisingly in the liberation of the black, poor and oppressed from systems of white supremacy

    Non-Native fam, there’s about to a FLOOD of anti-Native rhetoric coming at us from all directions due to a football game, so kindly check in w/ur Indigenous/Native friends. We hold each other up most often, but sometimes a bigger net’s needed. Thx, love you. 🙏🏾

    This seems like a good time to re-up my THREAD from Sept 2019 on Trump's real record on "criminal justice reform" and the passage of the First Step Act. If you had time to watch Trump's commercial, you have time to read the thread.

  9. I remember how I was and my way of thinking before I truly became aware of the US as a white supremacist empire so I don’t judge people based on what they aren’t yet aware of. We’re indoctrinated from day one into believing the propaganda against our own self-interest.

  10. Folks want white society’s acceptance so badly. The refusal to accept that it will never happen—because that’s the antithesis of what whiteness & structural racism is/has been for 400 years—prevents us from doing what is actually necessary to secure freedom & self-determination.

    We continually throw freedom movements under the bus for 10 minutes of representation in a white space.

  12. AG Barr Threatens Communities Critical of Police Brutality <— this is the admin supported by the NFL owners. Why would y’all believe that “inspire change“ is real & not just a massive public relations campaign for the NFL??? via

  13. Everybody already forgot they arranged a whole fake try out for Kaep, trying to get him to sign away his rights???? Why would y’all think inspire change arises from legitimate concern about racism & police brutality? They’re giving millions to the Trump campaign

  14. ??????????????????? Inspire change is a co-opted, watered down version of legit social justice movements that was created primarily to be a form of PR for the NFL. If they actually cared about the cause, they would’ve included Kaep, not blackballed him from the league

  15. Y’all the fake caring about Black people and injustice ads aren’t for us. It’s for white people, to make them not feel bad about supporting racist politicians & policies. Why would you think they care about us when they continue to kill us?

  16. If there was a place I could go and live free of anti-Black racism & US imperialism right now, I definitely would. I wouldn’t even try to change anything here, I’d just go where I knew I could be free.

  17. What is “immigrant culture“ and why is it defined as Latinx and not any of the other times white descendants of immigrants performed? Puerto Rico is essentially an occupied territory of the US empire where residents are still treated like 2nd class citizens.

    Wow. Remember how that kid that was giving out free hugs was murdered (along with his siblings) by his foster parents?
