to anyone trying to migrate to Blacksky, this is a video guide that will walk you through the steps !!

⚠️ IMPORTANT CHANGES SINCE I MADE THE VIDEO ⚠️

1. no invite code is needed

2. non-black users should input USERNAME.myatproto.social or USERNAME.cryptoanarchy.network in the "NEW HANDLE" section

hey everyone interested in migrating to #blacksky,

if you accidentally made a second account and want to merge both of them into one, lemme know and i can help!

DM me here or on instagram (username: dapurplesharpie) and I'll help you merge them 🫡

QUESTION!: If I delete my current BlackSky account, will that make my email address free to use for migration again? Or is it already in the system?

non-black users using the blacksky.app handle is a bannable offense

BUT non-black users are welcome to join the blacksky SERVERS (not the blacksky feed) under either "myatproto.social" or "cryptoanarchy.network" handles

I’ll allow it. I think Missy deserves to be in this slot because she makes in innovative, feel good, futuristic music. Though I think she makes better songs, this struck a mainstream cord so I get why it was chosen.

Rolling Stone crowns Missy Elliott's "Get Ur Freak On" as the #1 GREATEST SONG OF THE 21ST CENTURY SO FAR 👑

"It was a nonstop freak manifesto that made the musical future sound limitless."

There is a difference between racism, prejudice, and discrimination.

Racism is systemic….structural. It requires power.

CNN, wow!

When a major news outlet relies on decades-old imagery to shape a narrative, it tells us all we need to know about where their loyalties lie, and it isn’t with the American people. 🤷🏽‍♂️

"President Donald Trump and his top aides are using the word 'insurrection' more frequently to describe anti-ICE protests in places like Portland," writes Zachary B. Wolf. https://cnn.it/4pWYmzr

People need to familiarize themselves with the gun battles the FBI & local law enforcement had with Black organizations. This isn’t new but it’s very dangerous.

ICE reportedly opened fire on rapid responders on the southwest side this afternoon.

There are *very few* details on this available at this time. Treat all rumors with caution until verified.

This Sun-Times article cites a DHS statement that should be treated, as always, with extreme skepticism:

Shooting involving federal agents in Brighton Park under investigation

According to the Department of Homeland Security, a woman allegedly "boxed in" federal authorities, who opened fire.

We need to turn to lessons from the 60s & 70s with COINTELPRO destroying Black movements from the inside including with assassinations, & the MOVE bombing of the 80s. The same struggles repeat & there are elders with wisdom. And this is why we will not get through without centering Black struggle.
