Remembering James Baldwin on his birthday. One of my favourite quotes “The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality”.

So sorry to hear that Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o has joined the ancestors. His writings have influenced my work over the years especially his book Decolonising the Mind. RIP Ngũgĩ🕊️

Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live.

If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.
