HAPPENING NOW: @gocjhunt in deep convo with @ClintSmithIII about the lie of the Confederacy, racial reckonings, and his perfectly lit books. youtube.com/watch?v=N_OWo9… @POVdocs @blackpublicmedia
Courtney Symone Staton retweeted
Since #ThomasJefferson is trending, here's a reminder that Jefferson enslaved over 600 human beings over the course of his life, and up until this year, UNC had a Thomas Jefferson faculty award.

Our funny scary history movie #TheNeutralGround is nominated for @CriticsChoice along with some real titans. We’re feeling very honored. See u Sunday. We’ll be wearing a blazer and jeans as is required by documentary law.

History has never been neutral. Proof? Slavery. #TeachTruth #TruthBeTold -@gocjhunt speaking with @sandylocks from @AAPolicyForum, moderated by @NMAAHC Aaron Bryant about the fight to teach hard history @POVdocs
Courtney Symone Staton retweeted
Kimberlé Crenshaw (@sandylocks) on what Critical Race Theory actually is, why it’s such a necessary practice, & how ignoring the attacks against it could endanger years of progress. On @TheDailyShow's Beyond the Scenes podcast w/ @roywoodjr & @gocjhunt youtu.be/6mGohbqdcT8

So honored to be this month’s digital cover star for @POPSUGAR! 🍭 It was SUCH a fun shoot and in-depth, vulnerable interview with @sincerely_iyana. My fellow Rez Dogs; y’all ruining my warpaint with your quotes 😭💜 niá:wen — thank you. popsugar.com/celebrity/deve…
Courtney Symone Staton retweeted
Like many, filmmaker @gocjhunt watched as a monument to Robert E. Lee was removed in Richmond, Va. He told @pw_larsen the story has to center @RaceCapitol, @PrinBlandingVA and the hundreds of other activists. vpm.org/news/articles/…
Screaming and crying!! So deserved Yalitza 🤎

At some point, when it's safe, I hope someone does a story about the Black workers physically removing Confederate monuments. I mean...the power

I’ma say this again. A hurricane. Went from New Orleans. To New York. OVER LAND. And had enough juice to spawn tornadoes and shut down THE WHOLE SUBWAY. But this is just normal and we don’t need to mitigate climate change in any way.

Thank you for the check-ins. Our crew is safe. If you liked the Neutral Ground and are not in Louisiana, please support the mutual aid efforts happening in Louisiana right now. #Alleyesonlouisiana

UNC Students showed up in force for today’s rally & march. The call & response leadership of this young man, Yakob, carried us through. His voice powered us on. He lead & we followed. Young advocates need our support... let’s be willing to follow. #InterGenerationalAdvocacy
One of these people looks really familiar. The Neutral Ground is screening tonight virtually. eventbrite.com/e/pbs-nc-scree…
Tonight #TheNeutralGround screening with @MyPBSNC and @gocjhunt leading a convo w @victoriadlynsmith @MrRDPierce and @symonesees about dumb dumb laws and confederate monuments

Police & UNC harassed Emil mercilessly. Cops brutalized & arbitrarily arrested them many times; they were pushed out of UNC. If you're celebrating Sam's dirt nap, please donate to a Black activist who suffered for that victory. 2/ Venmo: @ Maya-Little-1 Cashapp: $MayaLittle1312
