    I wrote about the clash between a group of historians and the New York Times over the 1619 Project, and how there’s a deeper conflict at work not just over facts, but about how to interpret the arc of American history.

    "Private property..never existed here. Since the island's slave population was emancipated in the 19th century, land has been held in common. Barbudans do not own, but lease it to build their homes, to farm and for economic activity. Land is..our culture."

    Although graduate school being a struggle is suppose to be somewhat universal. There is insurmountable burden when the privileged poor + DD are compelled into graduate school to compete on the same level as their peers and/or follow dreams of being a lawyer, doctor, etc...

    Miami activists are calling on the Bahamian government to suspend all immigration enforcement during Dorian recovery efforts. They say fear in Haitian immigrant communities is at an "all-time high" and could prevent needy families from getting help.

    Just a gentle reminder that the fires in the amazon are intentional. It’s not a forest fire type situation. It’s an intentional setting ablaze of the forest by the fascist brazilian govt + agrobusiness & ranching oligarchs. Wording matters. Don’t hide who is doing this & why.

    This morning police threw grenades from a helicopter in the Cidade de Deus slum here in Rio de Janeiro. This is state terrorism. They use the “war on drugs” as justification to make such nonsense against the black population and the poor population of the state.
