BLK News Now!<p>"The roots of sexism and homophobia are found in the same economic and political institutions that serve as the foundation of racism in this country and, more often than not, the same extremist circles that inflict violence on people of color are responsible for the eruptions of violence inspired by sexist and homophobic biases. Our political activism must clearly manifest our understanding of these connections." ― <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AngelaDavis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AngelaDavis</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BlackHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackHistory</span></a></p>

Boo hiss! #DC's #BlackLivesMatter mural will be erased. Look back at the iconic street painting

March 8, 2025

"#WashingtonDC's iconic 'Black Lives Matter' street mural, which has served as a powerful symbol of #activism and a gathering place for #joy and #resistance, will soon be gone.

"The decision to remove the enormous mural near the #WhiteHouse comes after a U.S. Rep. #AndrewClyde, R-#Georgia, introduced legislation earlier this week that gave D.C. an ultimatum: either paint over the slogan or risk losing federal funding. The bill also called for the area in downtown D.C. to be re-named from #BlackLivesMatterPlaza to Liberty Plaza."

'Fans of Bob might remember from his appearance on Showtime's taboo-rattling talk show Ziwe, his high opinion of Tubman as a badass (who could totally beat Spider-Man in a face-off). Produced by PEG records, "Queen of the Underground" has Bob the Drag Queen laying down the incredible facts of Tubman's life and hands-on abolitionism with a amped-up anthem vibe.'

Continued thread

🇫🇷 Confondre volontairement la critique politique de la Françafrique (système de prédation économique de type néocolonial ), avec du « racisme anti-français », ce n’est rien d’autre que faire preuve de débilité chronique et d’analphabétisme géopolitique. Et je pèse mes mots.
