Some love for the poster design by #ShawnMansfield for the new #RyanCoogler movie, #SINNERS
❤️🔥🩸⚰️
#SINNERS was incredible. Made me laugh, jump, swoon, and cry. #RyanCoogler is a genius and gave us not just one but two of #MichaelBJordan?! 🤌 the score & whole cast were incredible and seeing #WunmiMosaku in it, wow! Made me think of #LovecraftCountry on HBO, which ended so shamefully prematurely!
TERRIBLE 😭
It sounds like her band is playing out of time. They are playing much faster than her. She doesn’t sing so fast on the album.

Powerful, substantive, passionate. A clarion call to stand.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"
Sen. Booker just quoted the Langston Hughes poem "Let America Be America Again"
"America never was America to me,
And yet I swear this oath—
America will be!"

Cannoli turns 5 today. He got treats, pets, laser toy time, and of course a heated blanket relaxation break. Happy birthday my purrito! I can’t believe it’s been 5 years. #catsky #cat #blackcat
I love it 🥹
We had to learn ourselves and, furthermore, we had to teach the despairing men, that it did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather, what life expected from us.
It is we ourselves who must answer the questions that life asks of us, and to these questions we can respond only by being responsible for our existence.
The salvation of man is through love and in love.
Our generation is realistic, for we have come to know man as he really is. After all, man is that being who invented the gas chambers of Auschwitz; however, he is also that being who entered those gas chambers upright, with the Lord's Prayer or the Shema Yisrael on his lips.
"It is we ourselves who must answer the questions that life asks of us, and to these questions we can respond only by being responsible for our existence."

Don’t get me wrong, I have left these platforms (and don’t forget IG), but banning is a slippery slope. Have legislation for and regulate? Yes. Hold them accountable? Yes. Tax them? Yes. Outright ban? I disagree. There is a lot of organizing and community happening there, as much as I hate to admit.
I keep saying, whenever I think about everything happening, “we could have had Maya 😩.”
AOC: Mayor Adams.. the only permissible way to refuse to answer a question during a congressional proceeding is by pleading the fifth amendment. Is it your intention to plead the fifth?
Can states withhold federal taxes (e.g. the state of Maine’s comments)?
Adding—those who serve are sworn to defend our Constitution. But POTUS is commander in chief. What happens when the POTUS IS the threat to the Constitution?
What are you reading right now to better understand and meet this moment?
Why aren’t more dems leading protests in their cities? What could come from that man’s threat of expelling/arresting/deporting students who protest? We need more dems protesting on the house floor at every opportunity. We need them loud and in GOP faces. We need more good trouble! Also I 🤍 u.
Written over 20 years ago. 🤦♀️ Same issues. “To many people, our nation's acceptance of corruption as the new order of the day began with the unprecedented exposure of presidential dishonesty and the lack of ethical and moral behavior in the White House.” #bellhooks #booksky #fable
"The basic interdependency of life is ignored so that separateness and individual gain can be deified. Religious fundamentalism is often represented as authentic spiritual practice and given a level of mass media exposure that countercultural religious thought and practice never receive. Usually, fundamentalists, be they Christian, Muslim, or any faith, shape and interpret religious thought to make it conform to and legitimize a conservative status quo. Fundamentalist thinkers use religion to justify supporting imperialism, militarism, sexism, racism, homophobia. They deny the unifying of love that is at the heart of every major religious tradition. No wonder then that so many people who claim to believe in religious teachings do not allow their habits of being to reflect these beliefs. For example, the Christian church remains one of the most racially segregated institutions in our society. In Martin Luther King, Jr.'s letter to American Christians, in which he assumes the persona of the biblical apostle Paul, he admonishes believers for supporting segregation: "Americans I must urge you to be rid of every aspect of segregation. Segregation is a blatant denial of the unity which we have in Christ. It substitutes an "I-it" relationship for the "I-thou" relationship, and relegates persons to the status of things. It scars the soul and degrades the personality...It destroys community and makes brotherhood impossible." This is only one example of the way in which organized religious worship corrupts and violates religious principles about how we should live in the world and how we should act toward one another. Imagine how different our lives would be if all the individuals who claim to be Christians, or who claim to be religious, were setting an example for everyone by being loving."
