When I created this program, I sought to center Black high school students, educators, and communities. Thankful for my team of extraordinary people @AprilWarrenG @AnyahNancy and C’enna Crosby, among others, who made my vision come alive in year two.
We're so proud of the Genius Scholars who completed this year's Genius, Joy, and Love Summer Academy! ✨

Including this image into the talk I’ll be giving at the @ASCACINTL conference in a few minutes, “Speech, Governance and AfroFuturism: Divine Conversation as National Sebayt.” African peoples’ best futures start with recovered memory. Politics aside, this image prompts reminder.

This is why I tell journalism students that open-ended questions are better than questions that sound tough. When conservatives first hijacked “woke,” every journalist should have asked them to define it. Cause these meltdowns would have happened a lot.

I am begging architects to stop designing buildings with transparent stairs. This is what happens when no one on the design team ever wears skirts.

Scholars of Color having to convince people that racial inequality is not an individual level flaw before centering racism in their research is akin to physicists having to prove gravity exists.

No one is Indigenous until the settler colonizer arrives. I’ve been thinking about this statement a lot.

If you repeatedly platform people who represent everything you oppose
If you need someone to explain why Black people should vote
If the people who demonstrate hate for Black people happily welcome you with open arms…
You might be an uncle…

It’s worth repeating. A mom drove there. Got handcuffed. Got out of handcuffs. Hopped a fence. Went inside the school and walked out with her two kids. All while 19 officers waited outside the classroom where the gunman was. #UvaldePolice #Uvalde

@karenhunter We can’t thank you enough for @knarrative & @knubia. @bgNewGen remembered a story @AfricanaCarr shared on @inclasswithcarr about two copper pennies & decided they would use their pennies to sponsor a HBCU scholarship. #PayItForward

The average price of gas today is $4.593/gallon
The size of the average gas tank is 16.5 gallons.
Which means a minimum wage employee has to work more than a day just to fill their gas tank.
