Google #jameshemings…I remember seeing some posts around the holidays about how #overrated #baked #macandcheese was. It was clear to me that these individuals were playing hide and seek as a child and were left long after the game was over still hiding…after dark. Come on by and get this hug and this plate of my mama’s Mac and Cheese. . #bxbbkbhm #blacketyblack #blackonblackbk #blackskin #blacknose #blacklips #blackhair #blackeverything #blacklivesmatter #blackgirlmagic #magicmagic #blackmagician #wefight #weresist #wewillwin #outfittingtherevolution #deconstructtheconstruct #blaaaaacknificent #blackpower #blackpride #supportblackbusiness #supportblackart (at Bedford-Stuyvesant) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ2jZUaOB_f/?utm_medium=tumblr

Civil disobedience... . The Chronicler of the Civil Rights Era . Mr. Cecil J.Williams photographs are considered the most comprehensive collection of the civil rights era and have been featured in 126 books, 17 newspapers, and 11 television documentaries. . Cecil J. Williams acquired a hand-me-down camera when he was nine, and by age 15 was working as a professional and freelance photographer for such publications as Jet, the Afro-American, and the Pittsburgh Courier, and a stringer for the Associated Press, and today is lauded as one of the country’s most accomplished visual artists.

#bxbbkbhm - I posted this last February and it’s funny how truth works. It stays relevant. Like Paul Mooney says “The truth defends itself” . This is another great quote from ‪@nikolehannahjones appearance on PBS Newshour...”What we know is white support for universal programs decline if they think that large numbers of black people are gonna benefit from it.” . From @nytimes "400 years ago, a ship carrying more than 20 enslaved Africans arrived in the English colony of Virginia. No part of America has been untouched by the years of slavery that followed. “Without the idealistic, strenuous and patriotic efforts of black Americans, our democracy today would most likely look very different — it might not be a democracy at all,” writes Nikole Hannah-Jones. To explore the legacy of slavery, The New York Times and @nytmag have started the #1619Project, a collection of essays, criticism, art and an audio series from more than 30 contributors about the lasting impact of American slavery. Each of the stories in the #1619Projecttakes up a modern phenomenon and reveals its history. From the lack of universal health care to mass incarceration, from the brutality of capitalism to the epidemic of sugar, The 1619 Project explores how America’s years of slavery still shape the country today.

I’ve have always said that you would very hard-pressed to find many modern characteristics about American society at large and business that is not a child of the institution of slavery. American learned one trick and copy and paste, step and repeat. . "When an accountant depreciates an asset to save on taxes or when a midlevel manager spends an afternoon filling in rows and columns on an Excel spreadsheet, they are repeating business procedures whose roots twist back to slave-labor camps. And yet, despite this, “slavery plays almost no role in histories of management,” notes the historian Caitlin Rosenthal in her book “Accounting for Slavery.” Since the 1977 publication of Alfred Chandler’s classic study, “The Visible Hand,” historians have tended to connect the development of modern business practices to the 19th-century railroad industry, viewing plantation slavery as precapitalistic, even primitive. It’s a more comforting origin story, one that protects the idea that America’s economic ascendancy developed not because of, but in spite of, millions of black people toiling on plantations. But management techniques used by 19th-century corporations were implemented during the previous century by plantation owners." . Photo: Women and children in a cotton field in the 1860s. J. H.

This one short and sweet. No pun inten...actually yeah it was. Funny wasn’t it? 😂🤣 . Day 11 Black Policy Change: The “Color is a Flavor” Act . Let’s be honest. That cherry candy don’t taste like cherry. That strawberry popsicle don’t taste like strawberry. It tastes like what’s written in the ingredients – red. It’s not grape; It’s purple. It’s not lime; It’s green. Black kids been knew this. So henceforth, all shitty junk foods, candies, drinks and other poisons they put into Black communities as cheap shit to eat, will be called by their real flavor – their color. . Besides, one could say that flavor comes from color. . “So let it be it be written; so let it be done.” . #sugarwaterpurple #colorisflavor #blackpolicychange #bxbbkBHM #blackonblackbk #blacklivesmatter #blackmagician #outfittingtherevolution #deconstructtheconstruct #blaaaaacknificent #blackpower #blackpride #supportblackbusiness #supportblackart (at Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8dCfGvp_dQ/?igshid=a4nb0vi66ptl
