"I'll stay in Cuba as long as I need to," she said. "Maybe as long as six months. I'll do whatever is most useful. When I go to Angola and Mozambique, I'll be following the old triangular slave route in reverse." -Ntozake Shange, NYT 1977

Curtis is a threat. But he stood on business here.
I asked Curtis Sliwa "are you okay with losing and knowing you contributed to Mamdani's victory?" I did my best to relay the concerns of capitalist america and used @BillAckman's tweet as a reference "a vote for Curtis Sliwa is a vote for Zohran Mamdani" This was Sliwa's

Loved @bomani_jones talking about why D’Angelo only releasing three albums doesn’t diminish his greatness because in music/art, we appreciate what was and not what wasn’t. Others have said similar things, that making even one masterpiece gives the audience a lifetime of enjoyment

In 2000, I was reading Audre Lorde’s “The Erotic” along Herbert Marcuse’s “Eros and Civilization” and “Essay on Liberation” I was making connections between love and protest, wrapped all in it was D’Angelo who gave me the permission to be vulnerable.

I’ll be here (rare BK appearance) to talk about Mamdani, united fronts and the past/present/future of Black politics in NYC…

When people say “conscious back packers” it wasn’t just a style to wear Jan Sports. We carried newspapers, fliers, books, CDs and even video tapes. In either words we were mobile movement intellectuals at the club, church, protest or whatever.
