    Please remember Janet Jackson died on the cross so J-Lo’s pole performance and Shakira’s tongue flicking could live

    Dude doesn't seem to understand that its, me, the critic who received the death threats. I've been told I'll be shot. I've been told I ought to be dismembered. If I'm murdered for my criticism, be sure to leave my body in front of Flatiron's offices.

    But if this is about “angry mob goes after author; threatens free speech, First Amendment, American Way of Life,” then those institutions — which will be around long after we stop talking about this one book — don’t have to change. They can keep doing business as usual.

    As the AMERICAN DIRT narrative shifts from “problematic book exposes deep-seated flaws in Big Publishing” to “unhinged, violent mob tries to silence author,” think about who is pushing the second take — and whose reputation benefits from it

    When I reminded my mum about what she said to me in anger years ago, she was shocked. I was 16 at the time. And over a decade later, I still hadn’t forgotten. The person saying the words always forgets. It’s the person the words are spoken to, that’s burdened with the memory.

    The only thing we are good at is by forming committee after committee and yet no implementation there after. I weep for my country

    Nigerians — both in and throughout the diaspora — are creating some of the most exciting and influential art, culture & innovation around. That Trump is actively working to stop the immigration of Nigerians to the U.S. is an affront to progress.

    The racist conman who has been crowned “king” by the corrupted GOP Senate announced this the DAY he realized nothing he ever did would have consequences. Who did he come for first? Check that list of folks dear “leader” doesn’t want in his land.

    1st, they came for the Muslims, I didn’t speak b/c I was not Muslim, then they came for trans service people & I didn’t speak b/c I wasn’t trans, then they came for the undocumented & I didn’t speak b/c I wasn’t undocumented, then they came for me & there was no one left to speak

    Governance by committee. This has been the way they've been governing Nigeria since 1999. Their favorite slogan is, "Setting up a committee and leaving no stones unturned".

    I dont think I have come across a thread where foreigners had a lot of good things to say about Nigerians like this,you'd think these Americans are Nigerians. Good to know some people see beyond the lies the media feeds them.

    Is anyone surprised that Trump kicked off the new year by prohibiting the largest population on the African continent from emigrating to the United States?

    Ok, here, from one of the last speeches King gave before a white man assassinated him. Show me where he diverges from the arguments of the 1619 Project. I’ll wait.

    Trump is banning more Muslims and brown and black people from sullying Steve Bannon’s white utopian vision of America: Nigeria, as well as Myanmar, Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Sudan and Tanzania.

    Of course not. Most of the African countries on Trump’s list are Muslim majority countries. And we should all be pushing back against the Muslim ban. But Nigeria’s religion isn’t the issue here. Trump just doesn’t want Nigerians. He’s said it. Period.
