The Mayan city of Chichen Itza is full of architectural and engineering marvels. But El Castillo does even more: clap your hands at the base of the stairs and the song of a sacred Mayan bird will echo through the air.

Imagine being chained as cargo… lined up like sardines with salt crystallizing around your wounds and cuts .. boat creaking and moaning and don’t know where tf you going…. My my fuckin my
He wasn’t gay he was more so transcending gender … his body and performance is that of one of the ‘working girls’ he runs with- not the pimp, not a ‘thug’ archetype.. but a real street walker.. catch the boot..
In this age of Black Face and white women commodifying black phenotype n aesthetic.... this is very important... this what they WANT to give ... y’all doing amazing 😘
We're watching a fascist front tightening its grip around the throats of indigenous/black folk GLOBALLY…and this is what y'all have energy for? Boxes of rocks and shame
Ima be real wit y’all they don’t want none of us to sustain a creative practice, let alone an interior life in this economy … it’s giving aggressive spiritual repression
This is literally what black folk have done since the beginning of time .. y’all be so white in the head, DRY, anxious, cringing in a corner n shit..then wanna act above it.. I love to see black folk CUTTING UP… how it’s spose to be 💯
I reject the notion being put forth that BLACK Americans are simply vibing out while imperialism sinks its fangs into the world. We were the test subjects for everything we seeing globally. Children of one of the longest ongoing genocides in history. Ain’t no vibe just survival
So these ‘rap’ blogs owned by Arabs and crackers/ adjacents …posting security footage by the boatload of black men navigating prison and locating intimacy/comfort as to incite more vitriol, homophobia, and transphobia in our digital communities?
Cut the cameras dead ass
I just want y’all to imagine what kinda of bonds ppl had to have back in the day without phones to still love fiercely without the means for constant contact.
Cicely waited for a letter for over 20 years from Nettie and the love never shifted. Tighten tf up.
I understand not wanting to sit with the weight of this history. It hurts. You do yourself + our children a disservice tho by truncating our story. A people who don’t know where they’ve come from are fated to return.. don’t be ashamed that our ppl survived that.. bless them!
We need to handle eachother with so much more grace.. we have all been through so much... like everyone has damn near had a breakdown in the last 5 months.. the catty meow shit is clipped.. evolve! Life after SHADE

It’s actually key that people make the connections between struggle globally… the read the room and ‘not rn’ retorts are actually counter productive.. all oppressed folk need to connect the dots .. this isn’t an isolated experience. This is whyte tyranny and supremacy worldwide
Here’s

from our favorite show P- Valley showing us her residuals. This is the reality of life for working actors. What is $3.99 and $0.01 gonna do for anybody?
Anyways..
Documentation of the Black Invitational Rodeo held on Indigenous land in Okmulgee, Oklahoma about 40 miles outside of Tulsa… beauty beauty beauty
I really came to the cypher wit a mesh top, nipples out n a kangol and ate all them niggas mic :/ I did it just so I could tell my kids about it honestly.
That versus was so cute cuz you can see how fundamentally they just don’t clique and it’s neither of they fault 🤣but it’s adorable and I do believe they love eachother where it count. 🤎 what amazing music they’ve made and continue to make. Applause*
