BlackPast has a comprehensive list of Black history museums across the country:

Today UK authors are protesting against Meta for stealing our work to train their AI model. Authors earn an average of £7000 per year, we are not rich, and yet a trillion dollar company decided it didn’t want to license our work fairly as it was “too expensive” Theft is not a valid alternative.

Y’all couldn’t wait for it to warm up so yall could throw on those God awful wrestling suits…

I feel like the rapper from Chicago would literally pass away if people stopped giving him attention

He couldn’t even run a charity without breaking the law—Now he believes he’s in charge of the Supreme Court, Congress, our rights, and the U.S. justice system. Who’s going to stop him?!

Drake's label, UMG, has filed a scathing motion to dismiss his lawsuit against them, stating that he’s only suing because he “lost a rap battle” and took legal action to “salve his wounds”

"I'm Sorry For Everything" doesn't do the heavy lifting you think it does.

Officials say the Trump administration transferred hundreds of immigrants to El Salvador even as a federal judge ordered their removals be stopped

Murphy: "If we continue to observe norms, if we continue to engage in business as usual, this democracy could be gone. I don't think we have a year to save American democracy. I think the way the president is acting ... puts out democracy at immediate risk."

Looks like we've got a cure for sickle cell. www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news...

We need to start treating “DEI” like A Pimp Named Slickback. Say the whole thing out every time across every context. Diversity, equity and inclusion. For example: “The governments, the businesses, and the schools are rolling back their diversity, equity and inclusion practices.” Like that.

Authoritarians govern through fear, not legislation. The simple fear of what they would do in certain situations can push even the opposition to capitulate. That’s success for them. We lose when we fold due to a hypothetical. We win when we challenge the REALITY that is hurting working people.

Does anyone know why Apple has stopped giving out Apple stickers with new purchases?

Thanks for keeping me informed Skykine. Happy Friday!

After being removed from the chamber, Rep. Al Green told the White House press pool: "It's worth it to let people know that there are some people who are going to stand up" to Trump.

Hey, Canada? We’re sorry we’re like this.

Click your heels 3 times and Atomic Dog starts playing

Iman rn 😭😭😭

Canadian MP Charlie Angus to Donald Trump via Midas Touch: “Donald, what, you had to bring a guy from the Russian state media in to watch you try and beat up President Zelenskyy — and you thought that would make you look good? It made you look like the crook and the cheap hood that you are!”

"You look like u snuck on earth" is still the most outrageous insult to date made by a woman.

Ahhhh!! This is not the space for yall!! Get back!!

@mcuban.bsky.social - If you ever decide to become a mega donor for socially progressive causes, holla at me, because I have an ever-growing mental list of DEMs that need to get primaried. lol

One pernicious step after another, Bezos encroached on the Post editorial policy. Today he seized it fully. The old Washington Post is gone. I'll never write for it again as long as he's the owner.

WASHINGTON (AP) — 21 civil service employees are resigning from Elon Musk’s DOGE, refusing to “dismantle critical public services.”

MSNBC shake-up: the issue is, they didn't have a Joy Reid problem. They have a Joe Scarborough problem. Until he is fired, MSNBC will not recover. Shuffling tepid shows in and out does nothing. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/b...

Top skill for devs: git + GitHub. Come along as I teach you both 💕

I say this once again, what the fuck?

Jim is right. Reporters should have stood together because it’s not just going to stop with the Associated Press.

What’s good yall, let’s show love to Lusia Harris, in 1977 she became the first black woman to be drafted in the NBA. Her selection was voided by the NB-so she’s the first and only woman drafted to the NBA. She also became the state of Mississippi’s first ever female All American. True Trailblazer.

Serena Williams!

With the Eagles obliterating the Chiefs, now is a good time to remind everyone that the last time the Eagles won the Super Bowl they refused to go to the White House because of Donald.

A minooooor!

Anyway, it's still Black History Month, and today is Hank Aaron's birthday....the man who (under death threats) broke Babe Ruth's home run record We lost him only 4 years ago. He would've been 90

Maybe just five of you care but everyday, I've been sharing random Little Known Black History Facts that I wrore for the Tom Joyner Morning Show. #bhm #blackhistorymonth #blackhistory - blackamericaweb.com/2020/09/07/b...

On the 4th day of #BlackMagicalHistory Month, we want to recognize Cree Summer. The voice of our childhoods has been in the game since before some of us were even alive. Before she was Freddie Brooks in A Different World, Cree was voicing the symbol of Black excellence, Susie Carmichael in Rugrats.

I love the way black history month is going

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
