Texas' Legislature could not pass a hemp ban. So a state agency published a definition in a register and made a 4 billion dollar industry Schedule I on July 31. That is not the free market. That is the government picking who eats.

I gotta get back to my core of education and culture. I make more content about politics than I would like. Been reflecting a lot and appreciating where I’m at while remaining critical. I could a better service to Black people.

Black women in the South lose the most when voting maps get diluted. Maternal mortality, Medicaid, school funding. The court ain't just ruling on abstract law. It's ruling on whose mama gets buried and whose baby gets born.

Affirmative action gone. Voting Rights Act gutted. Racial profiling greenlit. Tell me again how this Court is color-blind. The only thing color-blind here is the lens journalists keep using to cover them.

Derrick Bell 1980 told us about interest convergence. Civil rights gains for Black folks only happen when they align with white elite interests. The retreat happens the moment that alignment breaks. We are watching the retreat in real time.

Charles Mills 1997 called it the racial contract. The legal system isn't broken when it does this. It's working exactly as designed. The Supreme Court isn't being inconsistent on race. It's being perfectly consistent with white supremacy.

Fullerton College (Abeyta and Arthurs) won the 2026 CARD Debate Nationals JV Championship at the Tournament and Conference of Scholars (TACOS), defeating Hillsdale College on a 2-1 decision in the final round…. Shoutout to Latoya Green The Director of Debate At Fullerton College

Folks love picking with me on the internet just to claim they don’t do “internet shit” and not going back n forth when you started with me… Yall love to back peddle when I respond or pop my shit back.

"Some of us are infallible. Some of us are going to have to be untouchable." KRS-1 was smoking dope and dog food when he said this. That's not hip-hop philosophy. That's a predator protection program with a breakbeat.

Tech companies post net-zero pledges while building facilities that consume more electricity than nations. If your sustainability report says one thing and your energy bill says another, the community has a right to call that what it is.

Warren County, North Carolina, 1982: 500 arrests fighting toxic dumping in a Black community. That was the birth of the environmental justice movement. Forty years later, the product changed. The targeting didn't. Let that marinate.

Your Google search has a body count. Not metaphorically. The energy, water, and diesel emissions required to power the cloud have measurable health consequences — and those consequences aren't distributed equally. Facts over feelings.

For Black families, Easter carries deep significance as a time of spiritual renewal, cultural pride, and generational connection, rooted in a history where faith has long been a source of strength and resilience
