One of my favourite video bloggers #Wendell who's reports always show how the most downtrodden, neglected and poorest communities are also the most resilient, welcoming and diversily rich (non-materially).

Here he is visiting #MountBayou among other places, which is the most important historic example of #BlackPower community organising, defiant #resistance against #racism and #WhiteSupremacy in the #US, to date.

“Either America will destroy ignorance or ignorance will destroy the United States.”
Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, born on this day in 1868

Black people have been trying to help save America for nearly 200 yrs. The abolitionist Frederick Douglass was the first American who sought to explore the fragility of American democracy. Don't try to disagree.

Huey P. Newton’s birthday today falls in Black History Month, and at a time when the extreme right is taking power around the world. Now is as critical a time as ever to reflect on how Newton recognized that the fight against racism, capitalism, and imperialism are intertwined.

Does anyone know any good documentaries on the Black Panther party - specifically ones that cover their mutual aid programs.

I'm searching online for some but I'm interested in any that you have seen yourself.

Less than a month into the Trump administration, how is everyone feeling? Shay Stewart-Bouley writes for @damemagazine about how she is not scared, but angry. “Trump’s attacks on DEI represent a clear desire to take us back to the time when uppity Black folks like me were put in our place,” she writes. “He wants white men to be our rulers again and that doesn’t sadden me. It fills me with rage.”

“Often overshadowed by President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, the Thirteenth Amendment officially codified the abolition of slavery into United States law in 1865. The first of the Reconstruction Amendments, it outlawed people from being enslaved in the entire United States, with exceptions listed for those convicted of crimes. The Thirteenth Amendment had wide-reaching ramifications in the United States, some of which continue today.”

🇺🇸 Harvard had a KKK chapter. They even burned crosses on campus. Harvard faculty also owned slaves. Harvard NEVER paid reparations. But they quickly moved mountains to settle & pay Pro- Israel students due Gaza protests.

On this day in 1955, the civil rights activist Rosa Parks rejected a bus driver's order to vacate a seat for a white female passenger after the "white" section of the bus was filled.

Parks wasn't the first person who resisted bus segregation, but she helped inspire the black community to boycott the city buses for over a year.

Because of his willingness to play for segregated audiences, throughout much of his life, Louis Armstrong was called a sellout and an Uncle Tom by many Black Americans, But, in 1957, Satchmo blew up-—blasting Eisenhower to bits for not condemning treatment of Black American students in the South. His passionate words made world headlines, alienated many white fans, and divided Black America.
