"Stamped From the Beginning"

An ambitious, challenging documentary about the origins of racist ideas and sentiment, this film feels like it should be required viewing for everyone.

There is never a limit to learning, and director Roger Ross Williams’ documentary “Stamped from the Beginning” taught me a considerable number of things that the American educational system did not. This eye-opening, academically-minded film (based on Dr. Ibram X. Kendi’s 2016 New York Times bestseller) chronicles the entire story of racist ideas and the astonishing power that anti-black…

Celebrating Black Heritage Month Week 3: Black Influencers

For some, being a social media influencer is about what sponsorships they can snag and being the prettiest person on their platform. However, these individuals use their presence to inspire, educate, and promote what they believe in or bring joy.

I recommend checking out this twitter post directly (https://twitter.com/MsPackyetti/status/1265314497151078402?s=19), but to put the content here as well:

"White folks: instead of lather, rinse & repeat your tweets for #GeorgeFloyd or about #AmyCooper, here are things you can *actually do* to interrupt that stems from which you benefit.

Compiled by white people who made the effort:

I see a lot of fellow white people sharing things, making clear their outrage, and stating their support of black lives, but we need to carry that forward by listening directly to black voices (instead of filtered through non-black publications, organization, and individuals), boosting those voices over our own, and doing the work: educating ourselves, continuing to speak up like we do during these moments of our outrage during all the points in between (including when its 'uncomfortable' or 'inconvenient' or could 'ruin' an event or mood, and ESPECIALLY when in the company of only other white people), voting in all elections possible (and paying close attention to items like judge selection!!), supporting community grassroots movements to bolster community resources and support systems while reducing policing, and always ALWAYS being mindful of just what it means if we attempt to call law enforcement on black and POC people.

My health keeps me from doing much, including reading or watching new/novel content (as in, content I'm not already familiar with or haven't consumed previously), but this google doc is a great resource that I can take my time and work through when I have the energy and cognitive clarity to do so. We all have a lot on our plates and minds at times, but we all have spaces of time where we don't.

And when you find yourself feeling emotionally or otherwise fatigued by it all and need to take a break for mental health, do so and take care of yourself but also take a moment to reflect on the fact that being able to put it down for a while is a privilage that black people don't have.
