BHM Book 3: Highly Suspicious & Unfairly Cute. Me, a person who DOES NOT read romance thought this was freaking adorable. It had authentic mental health rep, queer rep, and a thick main character that was not trying to lose weight. #taliahibbert #blackbooks #blackauthors #blackhistorymonth #booksky

Post the cover of a book you love from the 90s. I thought it would be nearly impossible to pick something from the 1990s. Then I looked at my favs from the 1890s and things didn't get easier. #booksky #bookchallenge #readingchallenge This is my take on #whychoose 🤣

Epstein called Peter Thiel J.D. ’92 a 'great friend'
Documents from 2014-2019 suggest a close relationship between the two men, who frequently coordinated meetings with Silicon Valley figures and global leaders.

BHM Book 2: The Body by Bethany C. Morrow. I was conflicted about whether I enjoyed this until I watched an interview with the author about her inspiration & target audience. Also... I liked the end.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Across the country, Americans are rejecting the terror and violence being caused by these lawless thugs.
The Trump Administration must immediately end their operations in Minnesota and across the country before they cause any more harm, and the Senate must reject any additional funding for DHS.

Working families in the U.S. want healthcare, not warfare. We want ICE out of our communities. We want a government that answers to us, not billionaires.
And we need to make sure Congress continues to hear us.

Trump and his Administration are targeting me because I said something they didn’t like — but here’s the thing: I won’t be intimidated into silence. I’ve overcome challenges a lot tougher than Donald Trump or Pete Hegseth.
