The Black Press
Carla Mooney
I highly recommend watching “The Black Press”: https://t.co/0lNVBkB50r Many have correctly pointed out parallels between current political climate & a century ago. This includes how white-dominated press outlets—past & present—will vilify Black ppl to justify structural racism. https://t.co/28OKReKAM6

The Cross and the Lynching Tree
James H. Cone
Weekend reading: “The Cross and the Lynching Tree” by James H Cone Seems appropriate in light of recent events: 1) USA taking a century to pass an anti-lynching law 2) Murder of Patrick Lyoya by police 3) SC releasing an image of its death chamber on Good Friday https://t.co/W48w9HATBf

Passing
Nella Larsen
I agree that the film Passing is ahead of its time & will gain more appreciation over time as society continues to grapple with race, gender & class. And I think that also shows how author Nella Larsen was even farther ahead of her time than her more well-known contemporaries.
