@eveewing.bsky.social's 'Original Sins' is a necessary piece on the origins of the American education system. When even Home Ec isn't just about food within a system that, at its core, is meant to control differing populations, where do we go from here? #BlackBookSky #EducationSky #BookSky

'The Man in my Basement' by Walter Mosley is an excellent show of power not being just a physical state but a mental, psychological hold as we watch the main character bend to the will of a man who seemingly has no control at all. #BlackBookSky #BlackReaders #BlackSky #DiverseBookSky
Sad that I have a whole workday standing in between me and finishing 'Hole in the Sky' by @danielhwilsonpdx.bsky.social . First contact, visions of the future, & mysterious bruise tattoos of DNA? Sold. #BlackReaders #IndigenousAuthor #SciFiSky #BookSky #DiverseBookSky
In researching some fintech products, I found that some Buy Now Pay Later services allow you to BNPL guns and ammo.... What dystopian hellscape is this? #BNPL #Capitalism #EconomySky #BlackSky

When I need a pick me up, I watch this performance of Whitney Houston singing "All the Man that I Need". She had such a mastery of her instrument. In this performance, she makes all that power look so effortless. She didn't even make it to 50 but gave us so much. #BlackSky #WhitneyHouston #MusicSky

'Mem' by @bethanycmorrow.com In the first quarter of the 1900s, a Montreal scientist can extract memories, as versions of their subjects frozen in a single moment in time. But, meet Dorothy Extract #1, the 1st memory extraction that can create its own memories #BlackBookSky #BlackSky #SciFiBook
What lengths are you willing to go to to save humanity's future? 'The Final Orchard' by @cjriveraauthor.bsky.social is a mix of Hugh Howey (Silo) & Kazuo Ishiguro (Never Let Go), with a few twists and an ending begging for a part 2 #Dystopian #LatinaAuthor #BlackReaders #DiverseBookSky

Feels like 2025 is my year to go back to a love of Vampires. First, 'Buffalo Hunter Hunter' by @sgj.bsky.social , Ryan Coogler's 'Sinners' , and now 'Blood Slaves' by @markusredmond.bsky.social . What a year for horror! #BlackBookSky #BookSky #BlackSky #BlackReaders #HorrorSky
Shame on any Black, Brown, or other BIPOC applying to be ICE officers. ICE is looking a lot like the Slave Patrol and I'm embarrassed seeing some of the faces taking part. I hope your families disown you. I hope your friends spite your name. How F'ing weak minded. #FuckICE #AllSkinfolkAintKinfolk

Tired of explaining why I don't want to argue about "empathizing with conservatives". Another day, more tears from people who refuse to see why I'm not wasting energy on people that aren't starting at a base level that I, too, am a person. F that noise. I'm preserving my wrinkle free peace #BlackSky
Went to a meet and greet after one of my favorite comedian's shows and smiled big for the camera only to notice afterwards that the humidity and lack of AC in the theater completely destroyed my hair 😭 Shrinkage is real y'all 😭😭 #BlackSky Thanks for being so nice @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social !
Seeing @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social 's 🌸🌼🌺💐show tonight ! So excited! #BlackSky #ComedySky #FlowersTour

'An Unkindness of Ghosts' by @riverssolomon.bsky.social explores gender, race, and class through the eyes of an MC who wants to heal. Star Trek this is not. The HSS Matilda has long journey ahead before a Utopia can be met for all its inhabitants. #BlackBookSky #BlackSky #QueerBookSky #BookSky
Good classic read from 1931. With a "cure" for Blackness, can folks escape the bigotry that has been holding them back? What happens to culture and communities when people are offered the ability to blend in and lean into whiteness? #BlackBookSky #BlackSky #SciFiBook #DiverseBookSky #BookSky
Today, I cheated on my favorite banh mi spot. Mistakes were made.
I really wanted to like this book. "This is Not a Ghost Story" by Amerie has an interesting premise but the execution and landing really threw me. #BlackSky #BlackBookSky #BlackAuthor #AAPIAuthor #BookSky

Nnedi Okorafor, PhD@nnedi.bsky.social · last yr.Just need to say this again: Carol & the End of the World is utterly fantastic and deserves so much more love. It’s on Netflix.
'More Perfect' by @Temi Oh is like the tech of "The Entire History of You" (S1 E3 of 'Black Mirror') but several decades in the future. The world it creates, the danger with such technology is both exhilarating and frightening. #BlackBookSky #DiverseBookSky #BlackSky #BookSky #SciFiReads
What a great way to start the weekend! May all the people who vacation at plantations and plan to get kicked swiftly in the shins 🤷🏾 #NottowayPlantation #BurnBabyBurn Video from @bernardtaylorforcongress on Instagram

Sinners is by far the best movie this year. The best movie of the past few years. 3 watches and I'd still go again. The storytelling, commitment to culture & community, music, cinematography...🤯 Now can we please get more funding for original films? #BlackFilmSky #BlackSky #BlerdSky #HorrorSky
