He's so lucky he survived. I won't ever stop saying it -- When the color of our skin is seen as a weapon, we're never disarmed.

Black women want what is best for everyone but they can't want it more than white women, who have real power to fix this mess we're in.
It is nice to praise VP Harris' fire speech but it is better to actually vote with her as she tries to help us all.

Just a reminder that Black history did not begin in America.
The enslaved who were forcibly brought to this country were not illiterate peasants. They were blacksmiths, artisans, teachers, doctors, farmers, etc.
They ALREADY possessed skills which the enslavers took full advantage of.

I'm not arguing w/ people who think Biden is too old. Unless you're his physician, kindly STFU. My mother died in October. She was 95 and mentally sharp until the last few months . I wonder how you would feel if someone wanted to put you out to pasture?

I've had to shut down that ageism shit, over and over again. And I will continue to do so.
This ageist nonsense is not originating from #Liberals -- so any of those who end up being manipulated by that garbage needs their head examined.

One of the many destructive functions of #SystemicAfriphobia is the waste of enormous ability, skill, and character. The world gets better when we don't crush people, but actively support them, especially when they have so much to offer.

When I was a child, #HarryBelafonte showed up for my family in very compassionate ways. In fact, he paid for the babysitter for me and my siblings. Here he is mourning with my mother at the funeral service for my father at Morehouse College. I won’t forget…Rest well, sir.

So many folks only think of him as his Banana Boat song. That song was an ode to the working class, but it became so whitewashed & stripped of its meaning. THIS is the Baba Belafonte I want folks to remember. Not merely a performer in the white gaze, but a badass activist who spoke truth to power.

It won't go any better for you here Susan. In fact, it might be worse. May I suggest Facebook for your white victim hood needs.
