"Winters demonstrates that hip hop’s dark sacrality makes it inseparable from its expression of, participation in, and resistance to the antiblack and Black gendered violence that organizes the social world." -- @DukePress dukeupress.edu/the-disturbin…

this remind me of that what time when a Jamaican kid was making fun of BA and Haitians for being slaves and I asked him where thought Jamaicans came from & then he argued with me about it for a while
i’ll never forget telling my classmates in school that it made no sense making “african booty scratcher” jokes because we’re of african descent too since we’re black and having them look at me like i had seven heads…

Con motivo de las celebraciones dedicadas a los difuntos en distintas partes del mundo, les comparto esta interesantísima tradición dominicana de origen bantú, vinculada al culto a los antepasados: los Congos del Espíritu Santo de Villa Mella. youtu.be/znObj4vlPvs?si=LIcy…

Este es el mas basico ejemplo de la mentalidad nazionalista.
Chelsy Bautista dice que los hombres que la ponen loca son los haitianos, que esos son los hombres que le gustan y que ama todo lo que sea de Haití. Asegura que los haitianos que vienen a estudiar a RD, en el ITLA, la ponen loca, y que ya ha tenido algunos maridos haitianos.

Yes, the average statehood voter is persuadable. They believe a Chinese spy called Huang Dan Mao will implement island-wide communism in less than 12 hours if elected and that Walgreens will be flown out by helicopter. They are an incredibly smart group of people.
No one claims Puerto Rico would be a safe Republican state. But Puerto Ricans are persuadable voters, and the island has elected Republican governors and sent Republicans to Congress. Sure, they don’t run on mainland platforms. It'll require some coalition-building. That's a perfectly normal and healthy function of political parties. Also, most Puerto Ricans want statehood, and the national GOP platform endorsed it for decades. Independence has historically been associated with the left. The people defending the status quo throw up diversions to hide their economic self-interest. I get it. Everyone likes a tax shelter. But let’s be honest about the politics.

A new favourite: Charles Burnett’s When It Rains (1995). A funny, beautiful short, soaked in jazz and blues, set on New Year’s Day. It’s a small portrait of community, and of what it means to have a helping hand nearby.

Big topic today in Puerto Rico: rifle-rotting ICE thugs raided a church. Security camera image of one of them:
Replying to @adriana_diaz21
Las cámaras de la parroquia captaron uno de los agentes de ICE con un arma larga buscando a los inmigrantes en este espacio, que los feligreses consideran sagrado.

ah bueno pero como los dueños de restaurantes, en vez de organizarse para exigir cosas como la continuidad de servicios esenciales, accesibilidad de transporte, y otras cosas que mantienen la buena economía, prefieren abogar para explotar a sus empleados pagando sueldos de hambre

Tellingly, within the last 5 years, the US has had to electorally interfere — via the US government, US CIA, and/or US and western corporations (e.g. META, Cambridge Analytica, X) — in states to pursue the hostile US agenda against Cuba at the UN, and the US still lost.
