This week’s GroupThink Piece is Your Queen Is A Reptile, @SonsOfKemet third album. With each track named after different women of colour - Mamie Phipps Clark, Angela Davis, Yaa Asantewaa - this album challenges patriarchy, British nationalism, colonialism, and the monarchy. 1/3

“The production of...information about the Somalis was tied to the expansion of European power.” Ahead of this week’s #GroupThink discussion, we’re reading: “Can the Somali Speak?” by @safiyaaaay for @africasacountry. bit.ly/3sy0HSO

We’re *still* thinking about the Majority/Minority binary for our very first GroupThink and love this piece by Asma Istwani. She seeks to disrupt what we consider as the majority though collage.
