      My hometown of Los Angeles's deep anti-blackness is illustrated through the celebrated way it welcomes the new year: the @RoseParade.

      Today @latimes posted "the biggest controversies in @RoseParade history." But it ERASED its history of anti-blacknesshttp://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-rose-parade-controversies-20150101-story.html …

      In 1958, Joan Williams was crowned Miss Pasadena. She was supposed to ride in @RoseParade, but was denied from because she was black.

      Keep in mind that the @RoseParade takes place in Pasadena, which denies its place as one of the more historically black places in L.A.

      L.A. is pretty much my hometown. I know Pasadena for @RoseParade & little else. Guess what it should be known for? Incredible black people.

      Pasadena is most famous for the @RoseParade. Whatever. It should be most famous for being home to Octavia Butler.

      And it's not just Octavia Butler. Pasadena is home to Jackie Robinson of all people! Like, that man CHANGED THE COURSE OF AMERICA.

      As my friend @LexStepp mentioned to me, Pasadena's two high schools should be renamed. One to "Jackie," the other to "Robinson."

      Then there's Pasadena City College, probably most infamous for housing misogynist racist Hugo Schwyzer.

      But you know what Pasadena City College should be famous for? Its black alum like Octavia Butler, Jackie Robinson and John Singleton.

          So if you're watching the @RoseParade today, keep in mind you're watching a display of an entrenched anti-blackness.

          The @RoseParade is allowing the black Miss Pasadena to finally parade FIFTY SEVEN YEARS after she was crowned. Welcome to 20 fucking 15.

          So if you watch the @RoseParade, keep some of this in mind. And, if you wanna watch a better feed, just check for #BLMdena.

          And, if #BLMdena disrupts the @RoseParade today and that makes you mad, just remember the degree to which this event parades anti-blackness.
