Election night will give North Las Vegas its first Black mayor — and the only Black mayor statewide — as Councilwoman Pamela Goynes-Brown and state Sen. Pat Spearman compete to lead Nevada’s most diverse city.

This will be the first year I won’t be asked to volunteer at the Afrik Fest gala. Instead I’ll be receiving an award with my great friends @atharesq @leslieat1981 I’m kind of antsy about this. What am I to do with myself? 🤷🏽♀️😩

Anybody that really knows me, recognizes how much I love trees, so this study and what we continue to do to Mother Nature, with little regard is disturbing. Think about it next time you want to cut down another tree, especially for the sake of progress:

The Hill: Feds cut additional Colorado River allocation to Arizona, Nevada as talks fail. Stakeholders in upper/lower basin refuse to negotiate fair and reasonable plan. A must read for those drinking water in Nevada:

A grand jury in Mississippi has declined to indict the white woman whose accusation set off the lynching of black teenager Emmett Till nearly 70 years ago, despite revelations about an unserved arrest warrant. Thoughts??? #EmmettTill #CarolynBryant #WheelerParker #Lovelytitv

No #HR40 study needed to GIVE $1B more to Ukraine. This is so offensive! Got the UN Ambassador warning Black African nations not to take any more than grain from Russia (bully). Meanwhile, Black America receives no redress. #Reparations #ReparationsNow

After hearing more than seven hours of testimony from investigators and witnesses, the grand jury determined that there was not sufficient evidence to indict Carolyn Bryant Donham.
Charges of both kidnaping and manslaughter were considered.

GREENWOOD, Miss. (AP) — Grand jury declines to indict the white woman whose accusation set off the lynching of Black teenager Emmett Till.

There was no study before sending $50 billion to Ukraine.
It’s an insult to Black America that you have to ‘study’ the enslavement, lynching, murder, brutalization, and dehumanization of Africans and their descendants to determine if reparations should be paid.

This GOP state Senator is saying what many women have been saying, and the courage to tweet it. Good for him.

I am supporting legislation to MANDATE vasectomies for all Nebraska males. Cash rewards will be offered to people who TURN IN men who refuse to comply. If we are going to control women's bodies, we may as well go all the way with the authoritarianism.👍
