Did I go too far?

prayers for all my overthinkers. We be going through it 😔

Every Monday morning news show, every Black radio station producer, every thinkpiece writer, every Black content maker, every NYT op-Ed writer, every morning zoo crew, everybody with a Substack right now…

Stop the damn #Oscars broadcast and drag a red table onto the stage because we need to TALK.

African leaders were quick to condemn affronts to democracy in the U.S., yet were silent about events closer to home trib.al/dtN0RjK

On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."

President Biden's #inauguration was far from the first time 22-year-old @TheAmandaGorman gave a moving performance. Here's 5 original poems commissioned by @CBSThisMorning. cbsn.ws/2Nr3le5

Lucille Clifton, my goodness.

Once the Ugandan political crisis — a story going back to the 1960s — is reduced to a security or “law and order” problem, the West usually sides with whichever force can quickest restore the order they (not we) need theelephant.info/op-eds/2021/01…

Day Six under house arrest and we're still stuck with an 18 months old baby who had paid a visit to her auntie (my wife ) be4 we were raided & besieged. The Dad has been denied access to her. We have run out of food and milk. No one is allowed to leave or come into our compound.

Loved this piece you wrote @patuhaire ✨ bbc.com/news/world-afr…

I'm also not understanding this .. if central and Eastern Uganda have the largest voter population in the country and BW won in those areas by a landslide... How did M6+1 win the entire election? The maths isn't mathing. Help 🤔

More so, even if many Ugandans will resign themselves to the political reality of a win by @KagutaMuseveni , the taking of one's opponent hostage, and his slow torture is not the badge of honor for a win ( by the ballot box) his supporters will try to sell.

COVID19 kickstarted our digital economy with many startups taking off in the stay home craze. It was exciting. Elections with one punch have killed it. The election, it seems was the real pandemic especially knowing this could happen again. Still, we RISE! #internetshutdown

All of my life, I've been told I should move to another country where there's unlimited opportunity to live a full and vibrant life. Places where my skills, creativity, innovation and radical thinking could thrive. And I've always resisted, because my work is here, at home.

You don't get to sample our votes @UgandaEC. This wasn't a survey, it was an election in which you had to COUNT every vote! The NUP tally centre is doing what you refused to do &soon, we're exposing you! #FreePresidentElectBobiWine #ByabakamaIsAFraud #M7NotMyPresident

This is reportedly the declaration form for a polling station in Kamwokya Kifumbira. The photocopied copy is what the EC has, and the second copy was the Bobi's agent copy. You can see that Bobi Wine’s score was deliberately given to Norbert mao and Bobi given 1 vote

13 million voters in NRM voter register, 11 million voted in NRM primaries, 5.8 million votes for NRM in presidential election?! #UgandaDecidss2021 #Zungululu
