Are you currently watching Orange is the New Black? Are you ready to make a commitment to showing solidarity to those the show is making a profit off of? On
Hey y’all, I am holding a lot of feelings for the most recent season of Orange is the New Black right now. For those of you who have not finished this season, I imagine you will soon share my sentitment. With all of my feelings, of primarily anger, I want to take some sort of action here. I don’t stand behind the storyline the show chose to make, but I do know what happened this season is not an unrealistic story. We are watching a TV show in our beds, while eating snacks, and there are real prisoners facing unjust, humiliating, and dangerous treatment. With this in mind, supporting queer, trans QTPOC, and women who a re incarcerated is overwhelmingly important. Black and Pink is an organization that I have cared about for a while because they not only find countless ways to help those already incarcerated, but they work for prison abolition (which while watching this show, particularly this season, I hope you have at least questioned the effectiveness and safety of prisons and noticed racism, transphobia, sexism, ableism, and homophobia downwardly and even laterally).Black and Pink is asking for pledges so that OITNB viewers can commit to donating to real incarcerated people for every episode you watch. I am urging any of my followers to pledge to donate to Black and Pink or one of their other partners on this link, even just a dollar per episode you watch contributes to supporting QT/POC/WOMEN who are incarcerated. If you are not able to donate or want to make an extra step, sign up to recieve a pen pal. Reblog to spread the word.
College Freshman Stabbed to Death After Seeing Three Young Women Being Groped and Stepping in to Help
With final exams on the horizon, Donnell Marcus Phelps was all set to finish his freshman year at Fort Valley State University in Georgia.
The 19-year-old from Marshallville had been studying agricultural engineering technology but also found time to manage the university’s tennis team.
And help those in need.
Late Tuesday afternoon he witnessed a man harassing three young ladies. The man was touching these girls in a very inappropriate way, so he decided to step in. However, he was forced to bring fists to a knife fight.
An autopsy showed Phelps was stabbed four times in the upper torso with a pocket knife with a 3.5-inch blade.
“Words cannot describe the pain that we all feel in the Fort Valley State community,” university President Paul Jones said at news conference, offering condolences to Phelps’ family, friends, students and the entire community.
Johnson described Phelps as selfless: “He always gave us hugs, and he’d always check up on us,” she added to the Telegraph.
Donnell Phelps died a hero. His Mom did an incredible job raising an amazing person. God bless this young man for his sacrificial act of bravery. His life matters.
RIP Donnell Phelps.

Only 19 years old and died protecting women in a day and age when people will literally be bystanders & shut an eye to someone else being harmed. Beyond brave and this is so heart breaking.
“We must oppose two anti-immigrant laws rapidly moving through the state Legislature that will become laws if we don’t unite as a community to stop them,” said Christine Neumann-Ortiz, executive director of Voces de la Frontera, one of the organizing groups.
About 40,000 people are at the Capitol.
All I can say is, veo un chingó de gente and I’m so damn proud!!

The Women Of The Black Panther Party
While the image of the Black Panther Party often conjures one of a male in the signature beret carrying a gun, women were right there alongside the men of the party, making up an estimated 50 percent of membership. Women played roles at every level of the party, from press secretaries and editors to chairwomen. Check out some of the Party’s most notable female members.
Kathleen Cleaver
Highly educated and well-traveled, Cleaver was the first woman in a major position of power in the BPP. Their National Communications Secretary, she is famous for articulating the Party’s message nationwide. She was married to Eldridge Cleaver, with whom she lived in exile for years after confrontations with police. Upon return, she got her law degree from Yale and became a lawyer, scholar and activist.
Elaine Brown
Elaine Brown is one of the most well-known female members of the party. She joined the party in 1968 and helped establish some of the first Free Breakfast programs. She rose through the ranks to serve as Chairwoman of the BPP from ‘74-‘77. She eventually left the party over sexism and has been an outspoken advocate for women. She is a celebrated author and activist, even mulling a Green Party presidential run.
Fredrika Newton
Fredrika Newton, widow of co-founder Huey Newton, joined the Black Panther Party in 1969. Since her late husband’s death in 1989, she has worked tirelessly to spread the message of his work and the work of the party.
Angela Davis
An activist, scholar, author and musician, Davis was an active member of the Communist Party and worked closely with the BPP in the 1960s and 70s. She was accused of several crimes in a courtroom standoff that left four dead. She spent time in jail, but was later acquitted of all charges. She maintains her innocence and has been an outspoken advocate for prisoners, as well as an author and scholar, ever since.
Barbara Easley-Cox
Easley-Cox was a member of the BPP and wife of Don Cox. Together, they ran the Oakland chapter of the party. In the 1970s, she traveled abroad to North Korea and Algeria to promote the African liberation movement. In 1973, upon her return to the States, she moved back to her hometown of Philadelphia. There, she became a social worker and community activist. She is also a teacher and literacy advocate.
Afeni Shakur
Shakur is best known for her son, Tupac Shakur, but she herself is an incredible artist, poet, actress and activist. At 19, she met Malcolm X, who inspired her life of activism. She joined the BPP in ‘64 and was an active member, writing articles for the Party newsletter. She was later accused of taking part in several bombing plots in NYC. Her case went to trial in ‘71, where she famously defended herself.
Assata Shakur
One of the most controversial Panthers, Assata Shakur (Joanne Chesimard) was accused of killing a NJ State Policeman following a shootout that left her wounded and Black Liberation Army member Zayd Malik Shakur dead. She was incarcerated in the 1970s before escaping and fleeing to Cuba in 1979. While she is decried by government officials, she is a celebrated author, activist and freedom fighter.
Safiya Bukhari
Safiya Bukhari joined the party in 1969, working out of the Harlem office. She was in charge of Information and Communications for the East Coast branch of the Panthers, acting as a sort of publicist for the Party. She was arrested in ‘75 and imprisoned until 1983 for a case related to her connection with the Black Liberation Army. She went on to be an advocate for prisoners and author before her death in 2003.

7 mind-blowing comparisons that put huge numbers into perspective
can I get Warren Buffet to buy me his equivalent of a can of Sprite? Cause I can’t even buy a can of Sprite right now.
@hollowedskin
Here’s an example for your huge numbers post.
this is really cool
The Sprite can thing definitely helps illustrate why Warren Buffet needs way higher taxes.
@rainfelt he helps run a effort to get Forbes 500 wealthiest to pledge half their net worth either before or upon their death. You could hear more about it in this interesting video with Warren and Jay-Z https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=F2gHTglfvxU
Charity is great, and there are some cool rich folks; but taxes are more reliable, and the point is people making that much money could give away way more than half his net worth and not be negatively affected by it because literally no one needs even a fraction of what he has.
So… Cool story, doesn’t change my political position. If you were hoping it would, which maybe you weren’t – maybe this was just fun facts to know and share. In which case, thanks.
Reblogging for the post and @rainfelt’s comments.
I need to be this unpredictable this year
4yo: “Daddy, I like that thing!” Me: “Thank you! It’s the first gift I ever picked out for my grandma. I was two years old!” 4yo: “I like it because you can see its PENIS!”

That second to last tweet. Spike took it a step further saying female students should go on sex strikes to combat campus rape and sexual harassment. Sir… 😒. Again, it’s up to women to “not get raped”…
The fucking truth. The. Fucking. Truth. Gentrification is such racist fuckery. You discriminated against Black people for centuries. Refused them mobility. Stuck them in areas where you did not invest in infrastructure, school, roads, business or anything else. Took their taxes and funneled it to richer neighborhoods to take care of their shit. Overpoliced them using brutal tactics. Even trafficked drugs into their neighborhoods. Nevertheless they rise above it, create something special, unique and lasting out of less than nothing and now that it looks pleasant to your eyes, white people want to come into said neighborhood, take it over, kick all the Black people out, tear it down, destroy everything Black people built and bleach the fuck out of the area. Fucking pigs.
Gentrification is colonialism literally
