More than just Snails

This is America. Because some I literally had to dig to find out their stories and what happened. Different deaths and causes but.. the media coverage has been minimal on all of them including the hangings While we hear about 47 and foolishness daily. Their lives mattered. Our lives still matter. Celebrate 4th of what?? Not every story becomes a national headline. Some of these individuals died in police encounters. Some were reported as suicides. Some died under tragic or still questioned circumstances. Some cases received brief local coverage and then faded from the public conversation. Regardless of how they died, every one of them was a human being with a family, dreams, and people who loved them. We don’t have to compare tragedies to acknowledge a painful truth: too many lives are lost without sustained attention, accountability, or remembrance. May we honor them by saying their names, seeking truth over speculation, and refusing to let compassion be selective. ~Gwendolyn

"Tonea Miller, a 27-year-old Black woman, was found lynched from a tree after traveling to Miami, to celebrate Juneteenth, the annual June 19 holiday that commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans." Dade County Sheriff concluded her death was suicide! What Black woman would travel to Miami to celebrate Juneteenth, go to a wooded area and tie a heavy rope on a tree, climb the tree and place the noose around her neck and unalive herself?!

"This is your daily reminder that Kevin Roberts, President of the Heritage Foundation, got a PhD in African American history and then used it to author Project 2025 and dismantle civil rights. RACISM IS THE POINT"

One of the most powerful acts of resistance we can do is to learn about slavery! Powerful players have educated themselves on the system of slavery, the system of capitalism while simultaneously erasing it from history so we don't put the pieces together and beat them.
