The State Library & Archives of Florida calls this image Seated Girl & Boy Holding Hat. It’s among many beautiful portraits of Black Floridians made by photographer Alvan Harper between 1884 & 1910 whose names were not preserved.

"Just as the gods weren't kind to Krypton, a certain segment of moviegoers can be ruthlessly unkind to any genre film with a female lead or director, especially when it has roots in the comic book universe..." But don't let those serial losers stop you from seeing #Supergirl.

Nah…Black people were not collectively “horrified” by the Graham Platner debacle. Live in the United States long enough, and very little in politics still has the power to horrify you.
I think what’s most surreal about watching the Graham Platner debacle …

The reveal comes after we determine who has the power and positioning to move game pieces off the board.
Eric Swalwell AND Tony Gonzales BOTH resigning from Congress smells of a deal struck of some sort. We should all be wondering if a deal was struck. If so, what was the deal? And why was it struck? It seems something deeper is going on. What is being hidden?

Seeing a lot of the folks cheering on Hungary the loudest for “leading the way” for the US in overthrowing fascism are the same folks saying they’ll never vote for this candidate or that candidate because they’re not progressive enough

It is vital that independent journalists, freelance journalists, and "whistleblowers" be protected at all costs. They sound the alarm to danger lurking ahead!
Press Pass
Independent journalists often uncover stories ignored by corporate media, allowing them freedom and creativity, while corporate journalists rely on networks and sources but face reporting constraints.
