W.E.B. Dubois, Angela Davis, Kwame Ture, the Black Panthers and others were always careful to mention that socialism without antiracism means nothing for Black people in a country built on white supremacy. There was literally racism in the labor movement.
Love that for you

Red terra cotta decoration on a red brick building. In the center is a terra cotta ring with the face of a young boy, possibly African American, memorialized inside it. Around him are terra cotta leaves and branches. Bordering all of this at top and bottom are rows of square terra cotta tiles with a flower on each one.
Red brick two-story residence. It has a flat roof and many places where the brick has been patched, probably due to the removal of an oriel window that was once there and to put in replacement windows. There is a rough stone arch over the entryway. There are two unglazed red terra cotta panels on the top of the building. One is the one from the previous photo. The other is larger and includes only flowers and foliage. There is a smaller, similar panel above the entryway arch.

I've wondered about this little boy for a while now because he doesn't look white, which seems very unusual for a 19th century building in Chicago. I wish I knew his story. 2801 S. Millard, Chicago. The building was built in 1890.
Perfect sleeping weather.
phones, vapes, electric cars...
I'm unsure how people really think people were downplaying a virus that can kill you, make you go blind, wipe out your immune system for years, and oh yeah come back and kill you a decade after you thought you'd shaken it.
So talk/move accordingly.
I want to find something now for my cousin’s wedding but I’ll wait until a month out. But I know it’ll be braids for June in Vegas.
I did not feel well for most of the day and now I feel well rested and wide awake?
We got folks that are real life friends, long time mutuals and most of us are strangers.
It’s not that hard to have regular conversations with people online. I think some people don’t notice how they come off and others get off on it.
And that pink bird from the other day 😬
😂🤝🏾
You got folks sharing still sharing and having commentary over the “the big font, bold background” photos with no sources and also the obvious skits.
An animal AI video got me once so I do believe that we’ve all been got before. Some of it’s sloppy (like the Mya photo) and there’s some convincing ones.
An Ai photo of Maya. Her jewelry and fingers look like AI slop.
The photo is not on her IG. The video is but this photo is clearly altered. Look at the hair, hand and necklace.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Mya posted that photo on her IG. Nick Cannon was posting AI photos with different hairstyles for the same Christmas photoshoot. Celebs were already using photoshop and facetune before AI.
The AI is obvious so I assumed he knew and was purposely saying it. I don’t know him or follow him. 🤷🏾♀️
Claude is Anthropic’s AI
It’s a LLM like ChatGPT
He said Claude in his post so I think he knew but still posted it so yea

Spain’s MEP Irene Montero speaking to reporters
Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression — Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either
When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars — they hide behind women’s rights to justify them
While I'm thrilled to have been trained to basic competency before our collective situation kicks ALL the way off, it's taken quite the toll. Excellent time to help me close out the last 4% and $2669 of this 3 yrs 4mo fundraiser so I can climb out of the hole my dedication to midwifery got me into.
I’m glad I finally have an appetite. Been on struggle since yesterday.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.
Just paid half of what I paid the other day for some tacos. And it would’ve been less than that if they weren’t steak. Breaking up with the other place for good. 😤
Fascist lite can no longer be an option.
