You are not forgotten over here! I’m relieved to see your posts again. For any difference it might make, I’m sending you best wishes.

Tell your senators to rein in ICE NOW On Wednesday, January 7, Renee Good was killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Then, on January 24, Border Patrol killed Alex Pretti. These deaths were a direct...

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Yes, this is hideous.

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.

But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.

See you soon, NYC.

Lots to discover here, friends. Dive in!

Nothing motivates like death. Keep going!

I love Caligo, by the way. Your work is always surprising, always deep.

Justice Sotomayor dissenting on birthright citizenship case: "The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along. Because I will not be complicit in so grave an attack on our system of law, I dissent."

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

#amreading FLOATING IN A MOST PECULIAR WAY by Louis Chude-Sokei, born in the short-lived nation of #Biafra in West Africa, raised in #Jamaica, reunited with his mother in the US. A complex #memoir of displacement and trauma, told slantwise with the insight of many years. Loved this #book. #booksky

Donald Trump forcing US troops to sleep on the ground in the scorching heat in Los Angeles, since he made 0 arrangements to house or feed them and only wanted to use them as props for his fascist porn and political manipulation.
