José Andrés: People of Good Conscience Must Stop the Starvation in Gaza www.nytimes.com/2025/07/27/o...

Thank you @bhtnh.bsky.social for reminding us of this wonderful poem by Lucille Clifton, ending in:
"...come celebrate
with me that everyday
something has tried to kill me
and has failed."

Humanity itself, including our psychology & the roots of all major religious doctrine, came from Africa.

We are interconnected, embedded in each other & we need to recognize that and confront our psychosis on skin color & differences.
—Dr. Edward Bruce Bynum, PhD @bhtnh.bsky.social #BHTTeaTalks

In Yoruba cosmology there's a belief that conflict is ongoing. In order to resist, you have to start with a psychological approach so you don't reinforce the negative ideas instilled by the people in power.

Thank you Tony Van Der Meer at @bhtnh.bsky.social #BHTNHTeaTalks

"Inclusion is not a destination but a practice that demands commitment, vigilance, and humility. Our strength lies in the richness of our collective history." —JerriAnne Boggis, @bhtnh.bsky.social #BHTNHTeaTalks
