No Justice, No Peace 7/27/20

Hollywood has a history of racism … Excluding Black talent, silencing Black voices, derailing Black careers, and propping up policing and injustices…

Hollywood, break the pattern it’s about that time !! #ChangeHollywood

Ironically, the white-hot hate (pun intended) for the 1619 project proves why there was a need for the 1619 project.

It also shows that the omission of black peoples in the narrative of America’s history was never an innocent oversight, it was intentional.

Today marks what would have been Emmett Till's 79th birthday - an appropriate day to blast Rand Paul for single-handedly BLOCKING Congress from final passage of the #EmmettTill Antilynching Act in June.

Paul's obstruction is disgraceful. https://t.co/1srpfZUAGe

REMEMBER the first casualties of #racism are children—they are the youngest martyrs & youngest bigots. #EmmettTill, killed by racists at 14 in 1955, would have been 79 today.

Sarah Rector became a multi-millionare oil baron and the richest black child at just 12 years old when oil was discovered on land that was allotted to her because it was "unsuitable for farming"

She was so rich that Oklahoma legislature legally declared her to be a white person. pic.twitter.com/X6nBEZwfH4
