“When walls matter more than wounds, empires become tombs.” All I can really do these days is bear witness to the stories of others. http://www.paypal.me/therichson
"Don't divide us" they say, when we're already deeply divided, and they refuse to acknowledge the REASON we're divided. WHITE PEOPLE did this. WHITE PEOPLE can put a stop to it immediately. THEY have the power. And yet so many white people want to ladle blame over powerless minorities instead.
Bodies were left hanging from trees, with bulging eyes. Some victims were tortured, mutilated, and burned while crowds watched. This is the horror behind Billie Holiday’s 1939 song Strange Fruit. They were spectacles of racial terror, and some white Americans treated them as entertainment.
⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️™️ 🧵 June 11, 1967: A White police officer shoots and kills a Black teen, igniting the Tampa Bay Riots— 4 days of violence that reshaped the city forever. Here's the story. Pull up a seat🪑, my friends.(cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory
There's only one demographic in America that has the ability to sway the outcome of elections without any assistance from other demographic groups, and that's white voters. The current administration is trying to keep it that way by removing as many Brown and Black people as possible.
The two states accounted for 95 percent of books banned by public schools in the 2025-2026 school year.
Whenever I'm feeling demoralized, I think of my parishioner John Lewis. He had no reason to think that he would win when he was crossing the Edmund Pettus bridge. But he just kept walking. We MUST keep walking.
3 mini hurricanes come to gather to form one super hurricane.

Girl Tones turn self-sabotage into a catchy rock song with “Stubborn Mouth,” out now through Big Loud Rock and Parallel Vision. The Austin Dickerson-directed video adds a retro house and forbidden fruit to the chaos. zurl.co/8y5Yn
Girl Tones Turn Their Worst Habit Into A Catchy Rock Anthem With “Stubborn Mouth” - That Eric Alper
Knowing exactly what you’re doing wrong and continuing to do it anyway is a remarkably human talent. Girl Tones have written a song about that particular frustration, and they’ve given it a title that sounds like something an exasperated parent might say halfway through an argument. “Stubborn Mouth” is out now through Parallel Vision and […]

The Allman Brothers Band's 1970 Fillmore East Performance Catches A Legend Taking Shape - That Eric Alper
The Allman Brothers Band were still a relatively new group when they walked onto the Fillmore East stage on September 23, 1970. They had two studio albums behind them, an extraordinary collection of musicians and a sound that was already becoming difficult to categorize. Within six months, they would record one of the most celebrated […]

And why are those spaces historically Black in the first place? White racism. Then white gentrifiers move in and want to call the shots. www.theroot.com/austin-gentr...
"No new wars" turned out to be one of the most egregious lies ever told by a presidential candidate.
Black women have been treated as less than human and non-feminine to justify backbreaking labor exacted from us since we were brought here. Transphobia is a part of that reality.

When a Black physician who headed Tuskegee’s training hospital petitioned the federal government to hire Black doctors and nurses for the Negro veterans hospital, the Klan showed up on campus and burned the doctor’s home to ashes.

If you are selling a house and it comes up on Zillow, they now have a button for AI’s opinion. It is right above the description you or your realtor wrote, so first strike against the house before you get a chance to talk about it. If your house is older, don’t expect a great review.
This is why figures like former KKK leader David Duke (below) endorsed Trump, not Democrats. That being said; I challenge anyone to provide evidence where white nationalist groups have thrown their support behind today's Democratic Party. Bring it! (cont) www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Perhaps the US’s most renowned racial extremist has long supported what he sees as the president’s white nationalist agenda

It would be a great if every time somebody who followed you or tried to comment on your comment by saying “The KKK were Democrats”, you could hit a “punch back” button next to the like button and they could not comment or follow you anymore until they read the thread below.
Eddie Smith@eddsmitty.bsky.social · 2d ago🧵 "The KKK were Democrats!" is one of the most tired political talking points on the internet. It relies on a 19th-century fact while completely ignoring 150 years of political history. Let's put this BS to rest, my friends.(cont) #ProudBlue #USDemocracy #ResistanceUnited #Voices4Victory

John Prine would have turned 80 this week. He survived cancer, twice, only to be taken from us too soon anyway, due to complications from all things…COVID-19. Remember COVID? Fuck this shitty timeline, and fuck the people who made it worse. Prine was born in Maywood, Illinois, not too...
The president has spent his second term stripping protections from transgender Americans. Now he’s using an anti-trans slur as a political insult.
If you plan to watch a livestreamed public execution, chances are you would have attended a lynching 100 years ago. This is no different. Shame on you—whoever you are. #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory www.newsweek.com/pete-hegseth...
