You may know today's guest on TAA from his Tony Award winning performance in “Kinky Boots,” or his starring role in FX’s “Pose”. @theebillyporter joins us to talk about standing up for the LGBTQ+ community during a time of growing violence and hatred. link.chtbl.com/kBu3Uhy3
Special delivery from @MichelleObama 📦📖 So excited to receive Mrs Obama’s new book, The Light We Carry, in the post. Can’t wait to start reading this and get all kinds of inspired. Thank you very much for thinking of me, Mrs O! #TheLightWeCarry
Today’s guest on The Accidental Activist always knew she wanted to tell stories. @NTagouri has built a career on sharing the kind stories that are very often marginalized, or ignored altogether. Listen to her story now: link.chtbl.com/jAq-p9Gi
As the clock ticks down on this hellscape, find me on IG - @iamishasesay ✌🏽
This week’s guest on The Accidental Activist has always understood the value of free speech – growing up under a repressive regime in Turkey. @EnesFreedom joins the pod to discuss his work of spotlighting global human rights violations. Check it out now: link.chtbl.com/wU3oL6sT
In this election, millions of people cast their ballots for an America that is more fair, more just, more equal, and more free. We’re not there yet, but this keeps us moving forward. Our democracy is resilient as long as we stay engaged and active between elections.
Would love to know what you want to know about me as I enter motherhood. Do you want to know more about my decision to become a single mother by choice (SMBC), my IVF journey, how I’m staying fit and active during my pregnancy or how I’m decorating the nursery. Let me know!
Who would like to answer first?
Black women have the highest levels of what public health researchers call allostatic load—the cumulative burden of bodily “wear and tear” from chronic stress and adverse life events, compared with other groups in the workplace. fortune.com/well/2022/11/0…
The Accidental Activist is back with an episode full of knowledge and laughs! @roywoodjr and I talk about the talent he has for blending comedy with weightier topics in order to educate and advocate for social issues that are shaping the world. Out now wherever you listen.
Someone help me understand why there are so few black female anchors on US cable news🤷🏽♀️ And now we hear that @TiffanyDCross is out of @MSNBC. Appalling!!! The voices of black women should be part of the conversation. Everyone loses when we aren’t.
Nigerian police have taken in eight domestic workers for questioning following the death of the three-year-old son of Afrobeats star Davido bbc.com/news/world-afr…
Waking up to the news of @davido and his partner losing their 3 y/o son. Words can’t even begin to capture how tragic this is. Lifting the entire family up in prayer during this heartbreaking time.🙏🏽💔💔💔
The Accidental Activist continues this week with an amazing episode featuring journalist and author of her new memoir “Uphill”, @jemelehill. The full episode is available here: link.chtbl.com/wU3oL6sT
I have some major news to share with you... I'm PREGNANT! today.com/parents/essay/…
#GetHerThere is about the ways that we can come together to support girls around the world. That’s what we did today in New York, where the @girlsalliance celebrated the power and potential of girls everywhere.
Sometimes it really does feel like it is the end of days in this country🤦🏽♀️
We welcome the talks beginning today between the government of Ethiopia and Tigrayan authorities. We call on the delegations to reach an immediate cessation of hostilities, the first step towards peace.
I absolutely love Busy’s perspective. You can be an activist without being an expert and should never be afraid to speak up on issues that resonate with you. If you haven’t already, go check out this weeks episode of The Accidental Activist wherever you get your podcasts.
The lack of international attention to the conflict in Ethiopia has long been disheartening and infuriating to me. Why are some voices and stories of suffering amplified above others?

As we remember the #Armistice that ended WWI, I honour the memory of my grandpa Hassan Sow & the Tirailleurs Sénégalais. Armed with Cheikh A. Bamba’s prayers, he left his village in Baol to France. They fought with distinction to liberate Europe. If Europe forgot them, we won’t.
The verified brand situation is getting out of control. Quick thread of twitter blue brands, and brands who might be pissed off at Elon right about now.

If it wasn’t for Gen-Z, there would have been a red wave. The polling shows that OUR generation voted for Democrats more than any other age group. WE are the reason Democracy will stand. We now have a seat at the table. Time to start listening.

May we all gain true understanding of how and where our privileges converge with other people’s oppression, and start doing something about it.
I understand Black Twitter’s conundrum. On one hand, you don’t want to stay on a platform that disregards your safety, spreads disinformation, allows racism and fuels hate—even if you helped build it. On the other hand… America.
MSNBC needs to explain why they decided to part ways with The Cross Connection’s host Tiffany Cross — an extremely smart and insightful Black woman. Tiffany has been a beacon of diversity at MSNBC and the Black community deserves to know why one of their voices has been let go!
Wishing you all a blessed Friday from my Friday refuge - a place where my heart is free of sadness and my mind free of worries.
