Swimming While Black @swimwhileblack

@OBEYGIANT What's on the docket these days for manufacturing BADLY NEEDED quality dissent? This fear porn is out of hand. Menticide in full-effect. Logic, reason, critical thinking have left the 'station'.

@Albumism Hey yo. Happy Born Day #ChuckD! I feel you...

This is REAL and HARD.

@AnthonyErvin @BenSasse I appreciate you finding this historical nugget. Especially because of my family's sordid saga in the early 1960s, which occurred in Omaha, NE. Just because we hailed from a land locked state, doesn't mean we didn't want learn to swim. bit.ly/2CC5VVv

@CullenJones @VANS_66 @SpeedoUSA Do you hoop it up, too? That's a MIGHTY vertical jump! I mean MJ only jumped 48". I'm just sayin'...

@ArlanWasHere Iconic. Yeah.

From my heart, years ago. I said it then, and it must be said now……

Whew.

Elon Musk, a White man who grew up in apartheid South Africa, sends an email telling people who've consistently been called the N-word, in a company that doesn't promote Black people, to "have a thick skin." When will these tech bros be held accountable?

EXCLUSIVE: At Tesla, Marcus Vaughn was called racial slurs by his manager and saw a fellow Black co-worker beaten with a chair. After telling HR & @ElonMusk, Vaughn was fired for “not having a positive attitude.” He’s one of many Black workers filing legal action against Tesla.

@AnthonyErvin USADA is a "toothless paper tiger...if you think this is all because of pot, you must be high." about sums it up. Begs the question, what's the REAL problem they have with Sha'Carri? All one has to do is look at Alberto Salazar's unsavory, hypocritical past. C'mon. Please.

@Basketballasart Um, yeah. DO add this to the list of percussion instruments. And ATTA-GERLY on the spelling bee win!

@otlhogilegordon I noticed you RT'd Soul Cap. Did you catch this UCB gerly's offering in the past? Gerly Heir Swim Cap © 2016 bit.ly/2Ty0fIr x.com/swimwhileblack

Dr. Susan Moore knew all the fancy terms & treatment nuances when she was struggling with Covid19 in the hospital. Yet the doctor treating her was dismissive & it felt to her like only 1 thing mattered to him: That she was Black. Dr. Moore died Sunday. nytimes.com/2020/12/23/us/…

I need politicians to stop saying “The Black community doesn’t trust our vaccine” and start saying: “We have a history of medically abusing Black people, thus we violated their trust.”

@jack suggestions welcomed

@coldxman Yes. As a Black woman, the progeny of 2 educated people, possesses a graduate degree in engineering, and am excoriated because I am not of the 'familiar'. I continue to live w/the 'vapors' of Jim Crow. Reparations in the form of free education for all is a needed, valid solution.

@GeeDee215 @piercegordon1 Hand raised. But ONLY lived under? What about the present day 'vapors' of Jim Crow?

@piercegordon1 Same goes for presentations. Too many presenters have NO CLUE how to minimize 'wall of text' bla bla, or tell their story. KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) and & use negative space, ALWAYS. Love the QR Code suggestion!
