Also, if trolls are trying to pit different marginalized groups against each other on this platform, let’s work together to root those fuckers out. I have to believe that at the end of the day we all chose to use this app because we want better for ourselves and each other.

I'm really looking forward to co-editing this volume on Whitespaces! Especially in this academic/political climate. Details below! #academics Short abstracts this round!

Bluesky has a racism problem that some users are unwilling to acknowledge because this site's users consider themselves left of center This is not unique to bluesky btw. Every POC knows that every white-dominated space turns into this

The way to best defend against accusations of racism is not to do more racism

Why is it whenever Black folks, including me, write a post about racism, white folks leap/run/fly into your mentions to say "I cut off my racist family! Congratulate me!" when their job was to stay and confront the bigotry so marginalized people don't have to? You shirked. Why are you proud?

I'm really enjoying building community in this space! I can't wait to be able to share more and more about my forthcoming book on Black Feminisms and Black Women in Sport 📚 Back to ✍️🏾✍️🏾✍️🏾 #booksky

I have my copy!!!

NONE BUT THE RIGHTEOUS by Chantal James is a recommended read for Disability Pride Month. It was written by a mad person, & deals with the supernatural in ways influenced by my voyages in madness. It was a nominee for the John Leonard Prize for a first book from the National Book Critics Circle.

Some USians are going to be in for a really rude awakening when they find out how hard it is to get permanent residency or asylum in another country.

"Nobody is free unless we're all free" is one of my core values, but I've been Black this whole time and Black death and oppression is an acceptable baseline, globally. The urgency for action and solidarity never comes until our reality bleeds into yours.

So…I’m currently writing a book about Black mediamakers and US democracy. I have interviewed many inc. current+former employees of you know where. I’ve done years of research. I just want to say: you have no f-ing idea from the outside the fight these folks are fighting to try to save you chill out

More Americans cared about one hospital getting bombed in Ukraine than cared about hundreds of hospitals getting bombed in Palestine solely because the victims were white.

For the next two plus weeks I'm review the copy edits of my first book, Say Her Name: Centering Black Feminism and Black Women in Sport 🌸 Rutgers has read it and has now returned it to me. This is my first book manuscript, I can't believe I've made it to the production phase.

A commenter on TikTok asked Imani Barbarin if there is a way to call someone stupid for not voting without being ableist. Imani: Why do you feel you need to be able to call someone stupid? If your goal is actually to get them to vote, why do you need to insult them? And do you think it will work?

Alarmism on Trumpism is irrelevant in my life. I've seen Trump behaving predictably alarmingly the whole time he's been on the scene while folks act shocked instead of doing anything. I'm a DC resident who witnessed Jan 6 firsthand & a Black southerner whose people are terrorized by his supporters.

There will be an audible (and other platforms) version of Womanist Midrash Volume 2 (Joshua, Judges, Samuel and Kings) which I will also read. (I read volume one as well.) Get ready but give us some time, we haven't even booked the studio yet. I just signed the contract. #CriticalBible #Narthex
