I slept on it & still find myself still reeling from the audacity of employing 'finally' in bold caps, followed by 'loved properly,' as though entire swathes of genres don't exist that exalt Black women regularly.

Glad I'm not the only one who saw the "finally" and thought "oh no, that's....nah, not cool." Even if this is just a collection of recent reads the person did, it's a limited list of all the stuff out there.

The Civil Rights Movement also included a lot of mess, things many people would frown upon today. It wasn’t all glitter and gold. Also, it’s stupid to compare either of these things to a violent to attempt to overthrow the darn government. Good grief.

what especially frustrates me is Columbia University barring students from accessing student health and the counseling center. I'm dealing with a bad chronic illness flare up from stress and I can't even see my provider. I have no disciplinary charges.
Security guards hired by @UCLA retreated and hid inside a building last night as counter-protesters attacked a pro-Palestine encampment. They refused to let anyone else inside, including UCLA student journalists covering the events, @dailybruin reports: dailybruin.com/2024/05/01/pro…

So many of us were thinking this last night. They are owed a Pulitzer at the very least.

Student journalists are among the only journalists on the ground willing to tell the truth “Pro-Israel counter-protesters attempt to storm encampment, sparking violence” dailybruin.com/2024/05/01/pro…
The language used to demand book banning has gotten more violent. We all know this, and it's nice to see it affirmed: orartswatch.org/violent-aggres…

I saw a student journalist crying as another student journalist was pulling her away from where the Zionists were attacking the encampment. Scared, but also wanting to stay because she felt a duty to report as a journalist. But it was too dangerous.
And to be clear, I’m NOT criticizing the LAT journalists who did a good job with the actual article and also online coverage. Their editors with that headline though 🥴 More coverage from one of the writers:
Pro-Israel counterprotestors started tearing down @UCLA encampment barriers and screamed "Second nakba!" referring to the mass displacement & dispossession of Palestinians during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Per @latimes @safinazzal on the scene with another video:

UPDATE FROM ONE POLICE PLAZA: - No press allowed inside Hind’s Hall, including WKCR. - Multiple Columbia students were taken straight to the hospital due to severe injuries by NYPD. - Students had swollen faces from being kicked repeatedly by police.
Using the word “finally” is harmful to black romance books. Cause whether or not a book is your representation of how bw should be loved, using the word “finally” implies that only these authors can get black romance right and that's untrue.
Love these guys, but also wanna share some more amazing romance authors people should be reading: Beverly Jenkins (duh!), JL Seegars, Chencia C. Higgins, Nikki Payne, Vanessa Riley, Charish Reid, AE Valdez, Grey Huffington, Rilzy Adams, Christina C Jones, Alyssa Cole!
I slept on it & still find myself still reeling from the audacity of employing 'finally' in bold caps, followed by 'loved properly,' as though entire swathes of genres don't exist that exalt Black women regularly.
she said FINALLY
What you mean finally? As if Black Romance hasn't existed for a few decades! Whew an it's the same handful of authors featured here.
Shoutout to the WKCR students at Columbia broadcasting tonight’s events (Available on Instagram Live at wkcr_oncampus)
Jacob Anderson, Delainey Hayles and Sam Reid at the ‘INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE’ season 2 premiere
The portions I heard (the livestream was overloaded) reminded me of the best of Columbia, a place a lot of us love and owe a lot to.
The reporting from @WKCRFM is stunning. Students journalist doing war zone-like reporting from their own campus. It’s a heartbreaking listen, but also inspiring because they are pros who are holding back no punches about the gravity of the moment.
Israeli forces have killed at least 33 Palestinians and wounded 57 more over the past 24 hours, according to the Palestinian health ministry.
This brings the Palestinian death toll in over six months to more than 34,568, with at least 77,765 wounded and an estimated 10,000 missing and presumed dead, according to the Palestinian health ministry and civil defence in Gaza.
The violence at UCLA tonight is entirely one sided, a vicious assault on students in the Palestine solidarity encampment. I am incensed.
The Civil Rights Movement also included a lot of mess, things many people would frown upon today. It wasn’t all glitter and gold. Also, it’s stupid to compare either of these things to a violent to attempt to overthrow the darn government. Good grief.
“Peaceful non violence” was the predicate of the Civil Rights Movement. Taking over a building and destroying property feels January 6th ish to me. 🤷🏽♂️
I can't see my psychiatrist, I can't see my therapist, I can't see my primary care provider at student health, even though I'm under so much stress and dealing with severe chronic pain. they will not let me go on campus.
what especially frustrates me is Columbia University barring students from accessing student health and the counseling center. I'm dealing with a bad chronic illness flare up from stress and I can't even see my provider. I have no disciplinary charges.
