So I am watching the Afroman trial and they are sharing screenshots from his insta.
Me, when I saw his insta handle: “Is he Nigerian? Why is his insta name Oga Froman?”
My sister: “It says OG Afroman”
Been laughing at myself for a good few minutes!

There's certain comedy that we really let slide in the 90s and 2000s when we should have called OfCom and Points of View.
Ali G?
Little Britain???
Trigger Happy TV and Dom Joly.
Anything with Keith Lemon?????
English
@ronkelawal Oooh you have just reminded me I wrote a whole essay on that Ali G! Straight up blackface. I also remember some Black comedians like Curtis Walker calling him out.
But people were really laughing.

Ayer nosotros fuimos a ver Kenny Thomas y Damage en Manchester. Ahora soy en mi casa con mi hermana y mi esposo. Estoy cansada pero mucho contenta. #LearningSpanish

Voy a concerto de Kenny Thomas. Antes su performance, Damage se abrir el show. Soy mucho feliz!

Estoy aprendiendo español. Quiero practicar la escritura. Todos los días quiero escribir lo que hago. Dale!

I am learning Spanish. My ability to read and hear far exceeds my ability to write and speak. I have seen people on TikTok learning by posting mini vlogs in Spanish. I'm not ready for that yet, but I think I will start to tweet at least once day in Spanish. Open to corrections!

@RachelTrue @aChildOf2Worlds So sorry this happened to you! My fibroids and medical racism/negligence almost ended me.
English
Do not ignore your fibroids even if a doctor tells you ‘not to worry’
My fibroids were wrapped around my spine & impinged on my ability to walk by the time I got my surgery
Take action before they affect your quality of life & work life
Also it’s interesting to me that anglo women & their docs call them abdominal tumors, not fibroids and seem to get way more attention & sympathy in doing so 🧐

A GoFundMe has been launched after a body believed to be that of a missing student Edna Mmbali Ombakho was found in water last week. Her family described her as a ‘beloved daughter and sister. RIP 🕊️🙏🏾 open.substack.com/pub/melissasig…

A meningitis rash won’t present the same way on black skin either, so that’s important to remember.

Meningitis symptoms can develop quickly, so it’s important to act immediately if you spot them. More info ➡️ nhs.uk/conditions/men…

@DrFuraha_Asani LMAO, it is not even regular nonsense, this one is speaking futuristic nonsense.

Imagine Michael B Jordan giving a double dose performance of a lifetime and winning an Oscar, whilst facing the anti-Blackness of the past couple of weeks, and someone inadvertently (?) reduces it to this. Black actors deserve awards, too, you know.

People are coming online and saying any fucking thing they want to say; random narratives not necessarily supported by data. That you *feel* a certain way about a certain outcome does not automatically mean your feeling is rooted in facts.

@aChildOf2Worlds Thank you so much for sharing this. It is wonderful to see how many of us are connected because Azeezat cared for us.
English
Azeezat was one of the most incredible people I met during my degree at Sheffield. I can’t believe she’s an ancestor now.
I hope she’s resting well and we keep pushing for liberation in her name ❤️
Doctor Aunty Kui@DocKuiMac
For Black Women’s History Month, I remember Dr Azeezat Johnson. Many of us are beneficiaries of her intellectual generosity and commitment to loving Black women. Physically gone for 4 years, from the ancestral plane, she continues to guide and teach us. open.substack.com/pub/kuimac/p/r…

This is a delicious read on navigating being a Black researcher while institutions are still extremely white.

@bivampiric Thank you for the suggestions; all new to me and I will certainly be learning more about each one.
English
@DocKuiMac i hope that piece finds a home. i look forward to reading it. have you considered “a gathering together” or “black warrior review” or “callallo journal”?
English
Last year, I was invited to contribute a chapter to a book on migration and humour.
It did not work out.
What I encountered was best described as epistemological misalignment. Or simply, my Blackness was too Black for the project, and I was not willing to shrink it.
