Yet Do I Marvel - Yet Do I Marvel (chapter 1) #wattpad wattpad.com/1439068477-yet…
I’m a POETRY judge for the East St. Louis NAACP’s ACT-SO competition! * ACT-SO stands for Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technology, and Scientific Olympics. * My 17-year old daughter is competing in VISUAL ART! (That’s her holding the NAACP sign:) #NationalPoetryMonth #naacp #ACTSO
So . . . Aries . . . Umm real special people 👀
I’m in Illinois’ capital city of Springfield. Fun fact: both Illinois and Missouri are similar in that their capitals are not in the most populous or the most “liberal“ city in their states. All I can say as an Illinoisian is thank Goddess for Chicago. 
This is awesome! current.org/2024/04/hbcu-r…
Researchers noted chromosomal changes in Black women exposed to micro-aggression-loaded corporate cultures. In truth, This extends to ANY toxic environment you are exposed to for prolonged periods. *vid: me & my daughter shaking our chromosomes during the exlipse. 😂
So cool to see Cbabi’s work in East St. Louis at the United Congregations of the Metro East Office!
The archive of student movements is so so important. Glad to see this exhibit is up! today.uconn.edu/2024/03/please…
I’ve been invited somewhere to talk about my PhD research, which I’m obsessed with and which will cause me to play audio of Margaret Walker Alexander and Patricia Smith and ALL I’m wondering is DO THEY KNOW THEY MAY NEVER GET ME TO STOP TALKING? proquest.com/openview/7c99b…
I haven’t even finished this Beyoncé album and I am already weeping. This the one. My Mississippi heart breaks for this woman. I don’t know if this is her mountain top but she damn sure summitted with this one.
Today we stopped at Truelight Baptist Church and were given the AMAZING gift of ringing the same bell that called Black East St. Louisan’s to safety during the 1917 race massacre. If you’d like to join an upcoming historical tour email me at [email protected]

Hey Friends! Will y'all go and give our ORAL HISTORY PODCAST -- THE CLASS OF 1917 -- a five star rating on spotify? Much appreciated! (It is oral history of descendants of the 1917 East St. Louis Race Massacre). open.spotify.com/show/0XUnW23RY…
Why is it that the “truth tellers,” the “I’m just being honest,” the “imma keep it a buck” folks never tell something that frees someone? It’s always “Some of y’all are addicted to low expectations” and never “you deserve better.” If you’re a mean bastard just say that.

Henry Dumas was shot and killed by police in 1968. My family has executed his estate ever since. I interviewed my dad Eugene Redmond & Quincy Troupe about how they brought Dumas’s work to Toni Morrison & then to the world!Watch full unedited video here: youtu.be/aZeVEEcwYjw?si…
