Gadsden Black Lives Matter organizer Jerome Gunn and his wife, who has hosted a brake light clinic and The Gadsden Free Store, had their business firebombed last night.
Please donate to their recovery efforts if you can on CashApp ($Jasmine497) or Venmo (jasmine-Wilson-192).
A business owned by Black Lives Matter-Gadsden activist Jerome Gunn was set on fire last night.
Gunn said he believes it was a hate crime. "I get mail, so much that's just hate, just hateful."

A fair model for what's happening now is the "Strategy of Tension" in Italy in the '60s and '70s. Police used the far Right to attack the struggle, killing people and exhausting the movement, media and politicians portrayed it all as a clash between equally violent and...

You have a group of young protestors who have slept outside of the TN state Capitol for 60+ days, they wanted a meeting with our governor. Our governor responded by making it a felony to sleep outside the Capitol. What in the Jim Crow is going on

In Richmond, Virginia tonight, musicians came together and played “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” in honor of Elijah McClain, a 23-year-old Black man who was killed by police last summer.
He loved the violin and taught himself to play

white people's obsession with naming their own white privilege is ultimately just sidestepping the work that needs to be done. please stop making lists and instead join a multi-racial organization where you feel responsible for your own liberation as much as anyone else's.

If you tweet "I am the leader of ANTIFA," the FBI might call your mom.
