Monica and Shawn Williams say their white neighbor harassed them & burned a cross to intimidate them. He's been indicted on two federal charges. Still, South Carolina does not have a hate crime law, and the Williamses are pushing to make it a reality. capitalbnews.org/south-carol…

Just another reminder that the states we see rolling back voting rights today & eliminating Black representation NEVER wanted Black people to have rights to begin with: they were FORCED to do so by federal law. Now that they’re not anymore…it’s right back to their racist ways.

These sculptures were made by Murjoni Merriweather, she is a Baltimore-based sculptor and MICA (Maryland Institute College of Art) graduate with a B.A. in Ceramics and Film who creates expressive clay busts and figures celebrating Black culture, natural hairstyles, and lived experiences. Her "grow bottom" sculptures appear to emerge directly from surfaces, featuring detailed elements like intricate braids, locs, afros, gold grills, and jewellery to challenge European beauty standards and counter stereotypes. Merriweather's work has been exhibited at venues including the Walters Art Museum, Rubell Museum, and group shows on hip-hop and contemporary art. She draws from real people to give each piece it's own spirit and personality.
This is exactly the kind of art exhibition i want to attend

This town in Mississippi was founded by formerly enslaved people to protect Black farmers from racist U.S. laws. But now residents say they’re being pushed out of their jobs – by white South Africans granted refugee status by Trump.
