I had a really moving experience in BREONNA'S GARDEN AR app, which was created in collaboration with Breonna Taylor's family to share their love & memories of her. I spoke with @yesladypheOnix on her journey, process, & intentions in creating this project. voicesofvr.com/995-breonnas-g…

If this guy is gonna try to use an ad hominem about how many history courses the brilliant @wickdchiq has taken to try to win a debate about racism...which he clearly has no qualifications to argue...let me just undo the "history" the man was spouting. /2

Here’s what all the revisionist historians in my mentions are complaining about: I was on @CTV_PowerPlay to talk about #HarryandMeghanOprah and former lieutenant governor of Ontario David Onley turned it into a treatise of how good Canada was during slavery #cdnpoli #cdnmedia

William D. Chappelle was @DaveChappelle’s great-grandfather. He was enslaved at birth in 1857 in South Carolina and went on to become educated and President of Allen University, a HBCU in SC. He was also the 37th Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. #SNL

Super excited, today I got my copy of this new @InfoAgePub book with my latest chapter "Where are the Black People?”: Teaching Black History in ON, Cda"! I examine the state of the teaching of Black history & illustrate how to teach Black history using an antiracist framework.
