I’m just a girl standing in front of the open fridge, asking dinner to please make itself.
Let's give a shout out to the men & women who labor in the fields to put food on our tables. #WeFeedYou #LaborDay. Mandemosle un saludo a los hombres y mujeres que trabajan en el campo para poner comida en nuestras mesas. Thank you Ignacio Gomez for letting us use this art
The oldest fossil evidence shows that humans originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago and would have had dark pigmented skin to protect them from intense UV rays. So if you're a believer in "God," and believe man was created in his image... then it stands to reason that God is a Black man.
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
To think, Australia started as a penal colony/prison for those sentenced for crime in the UK….. The Indigenous were not recognized as citizens in there own country….. Today descendants of the original prisoners act as if, it’s their country this while continuing to ignore the Indigenous, the nerve🤔
If men got pregnant, you could get an abortion at an ATM.
Hmm….the point being she “may” have been breaking the law as we all saw, that’s not the point, to unfortunately millions of Americans no, the point to them is, she was killed by a Black policeman..so, no matter the law breaking, “A Black policeman”, to them that’s law breaking, not her, him…🤔
Hmm…..it would seem in living color that what appears to be racism on stage cannot possibly be the absolute reality, not after it being constantly averred that “racism is not now, nor has it ever been a systemic part of the American dream”. And yet, who do we see getting snatched of the streets..🤔

"Marc Elias’s Democracy Docket has quietly become a pro-democracy media force, expanding its newsroom to 20 staffers as it surpasses 50,000 paid subscribers." Story here: www.status.news/p/democracy-...
Yep separation of church and state is a bedrock principle in America. And now we have the newest version, separation of church and humanity.

Sooo….that leaves guess who… Have you all learned much in eight months……? So, for us (US), do you want to, continue? 🤔
Tired of being tired….🤔
For his feast day today, my top 3 favorite St. Augustine quotes. # 2: "That we come into this world crying rather than laughing is an unknowing prophecy." (City of God XXI: 14)
🚨🚨 U.S. March on Wall Street: Americans are sick of having a mob boss running the country.
As I’ve always, at least for the previous decade or more the media is not our friend. It’s its friend & now we see, sure of, they go to the power. Imagine your front people daily, lying, twisting “news” into slapping the backs of. Do they know better, yep, but……$$$, sell outs….🧐
🔵 So tragic 😭💔 Vote Blue 🗳
Which means future voting may be left to certain people to get us (US) out of where we now find ourselves. We’ll see…..🧐🤔
What journalism is supposed to be but isn't anymore.
“As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to consumerism, or hatred of the vulnerable – then the powerful can do as they please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.” Noam Chomsky
Fact is, minorities will be hampered from voting, 1 way or another. They want, no mail in mail in ballots, ignoring the military overseas, no real help for handicapped people, so that leaves only 1 group of people to do, what has to be done……guess who? 🤔
Quick thought, with all of the “rationing” of slavery, I ask: Jim Crow, because it was to achieve what goal? Slavery Civil War Reconstruction Black codes Jim Crow Today! So, rationing slavery doesn’t equate to the why of the following decades, unless you consider…..🤔

Thank you ❤️
"Only when the last tree has been cut, the last river has been poisoned & the last fish been caught will they realize that they can't eat money" old Cree proverb
“Say it’s bad”? No, say it’s genocide, because that’s what it is. It was thought that after WWll, most of the sane world attested “never again” but of course in mankind sanity ebbs & flows, so…🤔
The mission: Show up, look dangerous, intimidate when possible. We know, it has nothing to do with crime, if it did they would be in places where it’s rampant……?? This is an in your face of it’s me, definitely not you. Throughout my decades of studies I’ve run into this many, many times…..🤔🧐😢
Legacy media disappeared long ago…. Today’s media is for itself period & they continue to make it very clear, to all. To save its self it has taken a partisan approach….. Interestingly for the Black population this is not new, it’s how media has always been, but the rest of America??? 🤔

This hits right on time… My wife and I had the great privilege of visiting the African-American Museum in DC, and let me just tell you if you have not been…It is a masterpiece—go.
“Owning the libs” a theory that always amazed me… Ironically many start out as libs until they grow a family & as the kids grow many will for many reasons start drifting right, but don’t lose their original humanity thoughts/reasoning….. So, today many will wreck the world they do not know.🤔
He’s not after “those” people. it’s the “others” and it’s not crime, no it’s intimidation……🤔
#books are awesome.
@ahoyuniverse.bsky.social
In the main, politicians (Not all) play, lie on the fact that for at least the last 40 years many kids were served Dis/mis - education, education meant to serve a goal not teach, so that in a nut shell it was propaganda and very little else. Later the Internet pushed kids away, from books…🤔
He must do it were required for the atmosphere needed, so not necessarily required in those areas already under the effects of the kool-aid. They will go along with anything to achieve the level of racism, Whiteismness they think they need. This while the “woke” live in reality. Hence, today..🤔
You've got to be taught To be afraid Of people whose eyes are oddly made And people whose skin Is a different shade You've got to be carefully taught You've got to be taught Before it's too late Before you are 6 or 7 or 8 To hate all the people your relatives hate You've got to be carefully taught
🔥🔥🔥
white people are okay with Black people in their workspaces so long as Black presence affirms white order… meaning be silent, subordinate, cheerful, non-threatening, and above all, do not expose the absurdity or violence of the system.
I want you to Stop being afraid of other Americans. Of other Religions. Of other Classes. Of other Nations. Of Speaking Out. You’re Americans. Act like it! If you don’t get it Ask an American who does🤷🏽♀️
Don't get distracted from his true fear the ... #EpsteinFiles #StayWokeMyFriends !!!
I guess no one should also, not care about Jim Crow which beyond slavery put the United States into the limelight of racism even before Apartheid in S.A. which many of course were against, the U.S. (?) But, Jim Crow not slavery got US to the present…🤔
Next step, slavery via the 13th amendment and of course with no pay at all. This perhaps is the ultimate goal. Farmers happy MAGA happy Police, may have to find other victims, I guess…. wait, slave catchers….🤔
Dear Smithsonian.......send your historical records to Canada before they're destroyed.
She's the best!
Timmy: Dad, why are there masked people with guns walking around our neighborhood? Dad: They’re bad people who’ve been recruited by our bad government to do bad things. Timmy: Isn’t our government supposed to be doing good things? (1/6)
Imagine the Tulsa Race Massacre, but with ICE And National Guard instead of the KKK in every minority majority city across America. “Twenty-five thousand whites, armed to the teeth, were ranging the city in utter and ruthless defiance of every concept of law and righteousness.”

Release the Epstein Trump files.
Thank you ❤️
The ultimate in irony..🧐
White people, when in the Black history of America, have we shown that we were/are the violent ones…………… Who taught you to be scared of us?
Hmm, those shot were innocent students, one was a member of ROTC none were protesting…. Myself, I’m 78 and yes I remember as if it was yesterday….hmm…🤔
Of course funeral homes in D.C. will be very happy. Armed “vigilantes” (not all) what could go wrong, well, what normally goes wrong when you have LE (?) led to believe that those they’re mandated to Serve & Protect have been labeled the enemy or just, the “other” (both?) we don’t have to wonder 🤔
James Madison: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive & judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elected, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”
My guess, for the money saved (?) Also more deaths, hmm, most of the more deaths would have been of the “I’m not wearing a mask” people, ironically….. It’s also ironic that those deaths would’ve been the very result of those who today wish, that more, had died…hmm 🤔
‘Order’ equals act like them exactly with no exceptions…. Or else, law and order..🤔
🤣😆😘
