“Living in the OC was tough as a young, Black, African kid. I was a token, a play thing, or something to be made fun of. I internalized a lot of that hatred, and it took me another decade to unlearn.” - Suzanne Mungalez #BlackOCArchive Click to Read: https://t.co/SPDaSAEcfW

death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political. death is political.

those of us who are not yet dead must fight for death liberation. we must fight for a world where we all live, die, and grieve in more humane, free, conditions.

i am fighting for a world where oppressed people get to live full free lives, be resourced, and not only survive but thrive. i am fighting for a world where oppressed people get to die with dignity, where in both life and death our bodies are treated with respect.

history and statistics speak to the fact that oppression reduces your life expectancy. they want, need, us dead — to take what is ours and rewrite reality without us there to speak truth.

i am enraged watching the rich, colonizers, & imperialists live long luxurious accountability-free lives, while we fundraise to meet our basic needs, escape violence, and/or get the life saving medical care we deserve.

this world runs on the brutalization, exploitation, and deaths of oppressed people. we desperately need death liberation, a world where oppressed people are living and dying well, on our terms.

fuck your "death positivity" and "death acceptance". how can i make peace with death in a world where people, systems, and institutions function and profit of off the suffering and killing of me and my kin.

One thing a colonizer is gonna do is colonize. This book about a white american who joined the colonial Kenyan police reserve to fight the Land and Freedom Army (MAU MAU), is an example of that.

I read the article "Liberating Songs: Palestine Put to Music" by Joseph Massad (2003) - and took notes. You can access them below: https://t.co/tEC6YVd4XP

Gaza's archives are gone. These archives documented a history deeply rooted long before immigrants from Eastern Europe arrived in our country.

The police invaded @chechebooks at our solidarity meeting and arrested 3 of our Comrades who are now at Muthangari Police station. Call for their release. This is illegal and unconstitutional! #releasecheche3, #StopGazaGenocide #endtheoccupation

Black people in Tunis, both Tunisian & non, have reported being scared to leave their homes following racist violence in recent days, while many associations have urged them to stay home for their safety. Here people cheer the anti-racism march underway from their balcony
