When The Revolution Was Excavated...
When The Revolution Was Excavated…
The sounds and images in Summer of Soul (…Or When The Revolution Could Not Be Televised) remind me of my childhood. The concerts captured in Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson’s directorial debut took place a decade before I entered the world, but the music – from My Girl and Watermelon Man to Why I Sing the Blues and Everyday People – was the soundtrack of my childhood. The gorgeous grittiness of the…

I get the impression that a lot of people my age know that “the Iraq war was bad!” but they don’t really know much about why it started or what happened once we actually invaded.
If you want to learn more about the war and why it is so dangerous that liberals continually rehabilitated the Bush administration over the last 5 years, I would definitely recommend listening to the 10 part podcast Blowback. It’s extremely well researched and produced and it’ll have you wondering why the sick fucks that got us into that mess aren’t rotting in The Hague.

Women: “Hey, can we hire fewer blatant misogynists to direct and create media? We’d support that.”
Nerdy Male Director: “Well-spoken. Have you considered hiring me, a man who is afraid of women?”

Gifts by Maia Kobabe @redgoldsparks
Full text: I was born with body parts I don’t want or need. I wish I could give them away to someone who’d use them. Or return them to the soil. Or give them to a mother to feed her young. No one is required to accept every gift that they receive.

I can't embed the video in tumblr, but here's a link to a great video from Project NIA and Blue Seat Studios on the ideas behind the 'defund police' movement. It's a clear and informative explainer that provides some crucial information about a complicated issue.

Forty One - Hope and Art
Forty One – Hope and Art
I’m now a bit over 41 and a half years old.
I’ve finally reached the age when the divide between my life and the lives of those in their teens and twenties feels incredibly clear and insurmountable. I can no longer pretend to understand the perspective of young people without talking to young people. I always thought that I would have mixed feelings about this time of life, but it feels more like…

On Black Health and Father’s Day
On Black Health and Father’s Day
It’s been awhile. It’s been a weird and busy time on my end, but I hope to post a little bit more frequently over the next few months.
I’m writing this on Father’s Day, surrounded by family (those who live in my home) and love. I’m thinking a lot about family and fatherhood. I’m also taking a moment to reflect on an initiative I’ve been involved with every Father’s Day weekend over the last…
