The reason there is a sub genre called Christian rap and not one called Islam Rap is because the 5 Percent, Nation of Islam, and Black Orthodox groups were foundational to the formation of Hip Hop itself and reflected the original message of Knowledge of Self and Do For Self.

The reason Democrats and their splinter DSAs talk so much is because the grassroots did the work from 2012 to 2020. Ramarley to Floyd. A co-optation, a muling, a Bizzaro of what was already said, done and laid. #FTP

October 16, 1859 John Brown and 21 other men attempted to raid the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry and start a slave insurrection. 10 died in the effort, 7 were captured and hanged, and only 5 escaped. Brown knew that slavery would only end with violence. He was correct.

On this day in 1966, Bobby Seale and Huey P. Newton founded the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense.
More than sixty years later, the continued relevance of those demands laid out in the BPPβs 10 Point Program is a damning indictment of how little the material conditions of oppressed people in the United States have fundamentally changed.
Thomas Sankara, the socialist president of Burkina Faso, was assassinated on this day in 1987.
He fought to transform Burkina Faso into a truly independent nation free from the influence of foreign capital.
His legacy continues to inspire struggles for self-determination today.

βThese aren't leaders. These are puppets and clowns that have been set up over the Black community by the white community and have been made celebrities and, usually, they say exactly what they know the white man wants to hear." -Malcolm X
