This Memphis video of the lynching of Tyre Nichols must be awful. Basically everybody who has seen it is like "Please don't riot when you see this like you probably should." I've never seen a reaction like that.

Patriotism in this country didn't help the Black Veterns of WWII receive their benefits post war! Higher learning and healthcare were quickly denied and never offered by the White individuals that were responsible of issuing their benefits. Tell me; how the hell is that American.

Let something come out that tells women of color stories and don't center vv women the outcry is embarrassing. Most times I won't watch what don't pertain to me.

Watching WOMEN TALKING, the film allegory of the feminist movement, I was struck at how in the film, as in real life, no women of color were included. The film stated it was a true story in “the female imagination”. Even in the feminist utopia, women of color aren’t considered.

My first time hearing the song was the Senior class Xmas house party Dec '79, only seniors could attend. We played this album, and Kurtis Blow's Xmas album. I got so drunk. Fun times.

People won't look into the past and see how the powers that be (white people) is doing the same old thing, nothing about their antics is new today. We always knew.

Remember when we were told they weren't opposing the teaching of Black history, just "CRT"? And how many dismissed those of us who said these laws were anti-history laws, and anti-Black? Perhaps one day folks will listen to those who know. thedailybeast.com/desantis-block

When you have to present cover for white supremacist/nationalists that are the real terrorists, you make up another group to push them as the terrorists. Who is Antifa?

Greene: They are not anti-fascists. They are the fascists. They defend the drag queens targeting our children.. They go after people when they are not vaccinated and demand they get vaccinated and wear masks during the so called pandemic.
