#BlackHistory month seems like a good time to become familiar with _actual_ black history, like this excellent podcast about the 1912 expulsion in Georgia:
Episode 1: The Expulsion - 1912: The Forsyth County Expulsion and Its Aftermath
In the inaugural episode of Atlanta History Center’s "1912" podcast, hosts Rose Scott and Sophia Dodd delve into one of Georgia’s most unsettling events.omny.fm
Trayvon Martin was born 31 years ago today.

Today in Labor History, February 4, 1913: Rosa Parks was born in Tuskegee, Alabama. In 1943, she joined the NAACP, eventually becoming the branch secretary, where she investigated cases and organized protest campaigns around cases of racial and sexual violence. In spite of local policies to disenfranchise African American voters, she still registered to vote and did vote from 1943 on. In 1955, she refused to move to the back of the bus in Montgomery, Alabama, in a planned direct action against Jim Crow, sparking the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Later in her life, she became a supporter of the Black Power Movement and an anti-Apartheid activist.

Resistance and activism work. The names of all seven Dems who voted to support ICE funding was released 2 weeks ago. This week the two "moderate" Dems from Long Island apologized and said they didn't realize the significance of it. Don't know how that would be possible since the importance of the vote was explained by callers to their office. But hey, another better late than never? 🙄 gothamist.com/news/moderate-lo…
Good morning. I'm still trying to get $150 by the 8th to cover a payday loan. 😖😭

Good day Fediverse,
This thread will be dedicated to places you can find places selling books on discount for Black History Month. I know money is tight for many, so I created this list to make you more knowledgable while being easy on the wallet.
Anyone may also add any place they see doing discounts as well. Please especially feel free to add places outside of the United States. Let's get educated and help each other create more communities that are inclusive to Black folks. I am already doing my part by moderating this instance.
Down below are the current list of publishers having sales:
Southern Illinois University Press has 20% off on Black History titles with code SIUP20. Their website is siupress.com/
The University of South Carolina Press has 40% off on ALL books using JBHM26. Their website is uscpress.com/

Saw an Austrian organisation talking about Black History Month, and I don't know how I feel about that. According to Google, Black people make up less than 1% of the population of Austria; Turkish people, at 2%, are the largest minority.
BHM is hugely important in America, especially now. And it's important in the UK, where we're 3% of the population, but 13% of the prison population.
I wonder if having it treated (in good faith) as a bandwagon by others might diminish it.
Folks: Tomorrow is my birthday, and I've had a rough start to the year, with my spouse recovering from surgery and unable to work, in addition to my usual stress of living as a Black #trans person in the US. I'd really appreciate any new paid Patreon members, or leads to part-time remote work.

February is the Black History Month here in the US, and a great opportunity to recommit to making the fediverse (and beyond!) a safe and welcoming place for Black people.
Let's continue to lift up their voices, celebrate their joys, and if you see trouble, step in and help out.
Good morning, y'all! You know what time it is!
#BlackHistoryMonth all year long! Always and in ALL ways!
If you'd like to be a blessing to me all is appreciated!

I’m not criticizing the wonderfully brave work that is being done in support of our immigrant community. But we must strive to keep ourselves educated about the invisible ways ingrained societal racism impacts us all. The utterance of that phrase masks a refusal to recognize or credit the lived experience of every single group of black and brown people in this country. 2/8
The attempted genocide of Native Americans, the enslavement of Africans and African Americans, the denial of civil rights, the discrimination against the Chinese, the internment of the Japanese, the ongoing attacks on Mexican Americans and anyone that speaks Spanish or looks a little too brown. All of these behaviors are state sanctioned violence. Organized and state sanctioned violence is hallmark of the US since its founding. 3/8
Why is it important for white allies to acknowledge this? Because the ongoing refusal to acknowledge this basic fact of 1) prevents the formation of real multicultural alliances; 2) allows allies to view harms as those that affect only their communities and not the ones that look nothing like them; and 3) it allows folks to continue to avoid doing of the painful intersectional analysis of the harms racism creates. 4/8
The cost for that refusal to deal with the reality of racism and its impact on Black and Brown communities is high. Look how long it has taken white folks across the nation to ramp up and take to the streets. I love the guy in the frog suit and the one who threw the sandwich, but ask yourself why were they the iconic images of this struggle until a white person was killed? 5/8
Who were the black and brown activists that are being beat and arrested since August? Who are the 30 people killed by ICE last fall? Or, any of the thousands disappeared out of Alligator Alley? What’s the name of the guy who was murdered while he was detained? Can we imagine them? See what I’m saying? The tactics used by ICE now in MN, Chicago, L.A., Portland, were perfected right here in DC in August! 6/8
That 6 minute jump out, grab and disappear someone, they developed that here. Snatching children. Here again. Shooting up cars...here. No one cared. I’ve been to 3 rallies in 10 days, including one at CBP which Ezra from #Indivisible hosted. When speakers named the cities ICE is attacking , DC and New Orleans were not included, even in the damn DC rally! Two black cities. No one cared. 7/8
At two of those rallies, important people said “This is not who we are.” But as you all pointed out – it is who we are. The activist community needs to be more vocal in rejecting that narrative and we must educate and push our leaders to do the same. 8/8
I enjoy being on Mastodon because of conversations here. I didn’t have to explain to any of you why the phrase “This is not who we are” is ridiculous. It’s like when Kissinger died, you all said he should rot in hell. I was like yes! These are my people. But I do want to talk about how allies and liberals hurt our fight for freedom when they use that phrase in speeches trying to make people feel better. 1/8
Feel good story for the week: they were freed with no charges ❤
