This info that the US shook off authoritarianism in the 1920s will come as a surprise to my relatives who grew up under Jim Crow in the 1950s

Gifting this one: interesting, important read on how the USA shook off authoritarianism of 1920s. Yes cataclysm is part of it.
But bolstering the WEB Duboises & Sidney Hillmans of today?
Pushing Grand Experiments for democracy?
BRING IT ON.

Koco’s is often hailed as the best crabcake in the city. The trick to keeping it under $30 is the Junior Crab Cake Platter (6 ounces, $29), which comes with french fries, coleslaw, lettuce, and tomato. baltimorebeat.com/baltimores-b...

People have no idea how hard it is for Black women to always have to break glass ceilings, set new records, and "be the change."

It literally weathers us, kills us from the inside out.

Stop listening to grifters tell you what games you should or shouldn't play and what shows you should or shouldn't watch. They're miserable and want you to be miserable too. Toxic muthafuckas ain't worth your energy.

The minds of James Baldwin and Toni Morrison NEVER declined. If they’re talking, they’re saying something profound. Staggeringly brilliant.
