It's stunning how many of my fellow white people don't understand that after 400 years of slavery, oppression, torture, and marginalization of Black people by white people, they owe us nothing and would be justified in telling us all to just fuck off. So when they say butt out, honor that request.

The “Put you back in your place” reflex hurled at Black folk when we accomplish anything is one of the nuts & bolts of white supremacy.

I won't spend time thinking of a submarine that was built at Best Buy while there is a war in Ukraine,a former president selling our nation out to the highest bidder, and a "supreme court" that is also bought and paid for.I don't want people to die,but their salvation is not even their own priority.

The disparity in media coverage between the migrant ship and the adventure submarine has said so much about what and who we value in this society. It's been disgraceful.

At the end of the day, the Titanic Missing Billionaire Submarine story is a perfect distillation of 21st Century capitalism: A small group of very rich people assume a clearly irresponsible risk. It goes predictably wrong. Scores more in public resources are used to save them...

Several rich guys vanish on a submarine trip to visit the Titanic. Vast government & private resources spring into action.
A bridge on I-95 collapses in a fire. The public is inconvenienced. The problem is fixed in a couple of weeks.
Children are slaughtered in an elementary school. Meh!

Saw this and had to share it. But to summarize:

So.... slavery in Florida traced to 1565 ... in what is now St. Augustine, with 56 African slaves recorded in the town in 1602. The story is complex, nothing is ever a straight line. #BlackHistoryMonth #FloridaSlavery Why be afraid of #history ? The interrogation of history is how we grow!
