Since I’m the only Indigenous person in the academic spaces I navigate, I’m always asked about land acknowledgements. So here are my common responses bc I try to keep in mind that everyone uses their “only X friend” to justify their racism at times. 🧵
Robert Massey, 70yo white man: Sentenced to 1 YEAR in prison for dumping 47 MILLION gallons of toxic water into Flint River. Michael Thompson, 69yo Black man: Spent 25 YEARS in prison for selling a small amount of marijuana. #TwoAmericas
In less than 10 days the federal government is scheduled to execute the first Native American in modern history. Against the wishes of his tribe AND in violation of federal law.
A court reinstated Korryn Gaines’ family’s civil victory today. Never forget, before kicking in her door, cops turned off their bodycams & contacted @Facebook to cut her live video. When FB agreed, cops shot her to death with her son in her arms. Free speech my ass.
Anti-racism in academic medicine looks like moving away from paper-pushing to actually implementing and FUNDING the recommendations elucidated by disparities research.
Unpopular theory: The black community needs to file a class action lawsuit against McGraw Hill education for psychological manipulation of black children with the miseducation that's placed in social studies textbooks.
Another tragic “I can’t breathe” incident: 27yo Carlos Ingram-Lopez was held face-down w/ 2 blankets by Tucson police. He died from cardiac arrest, leaving behind his daughter, fiancé, and other family... It's heartbreaking. bit.ly/2Zh3iU8 #SayHisName #CarlosIngramLopez
The police report said George Floyd died at the hospital. Cops broke down Breonna Taylor’s door, shot her EIGHT TIMES & reported “no injury” & “no forced entry.” Now they say a noose just happened to be in the ONLY black NASCAR driver’s pit for 8 months & no one saw it Aight.

Breonna Taylor’s killers are still at large.
Breonna Taylor’s killers are still walking free.
Breonna Taylor was an “essential worker” during the early days of the coronavirus pandemic. She deserved an America that saw her as essential before it called her a hero. My latest for @RollingStone, on the young EMT shot to death by Louisville police. rol.st/2LvlSSc
This was me, and I want to make one thing clear to all the people that are commenting lies below this video. I did NOT spit in this officers face. I was wearing a face mask. He told me to get out of the street and then immediately threw me out of the way.
NYPD officer just called a female protester a “stupid fucking bitch” and threw her to the ground
A lot of people saw the White Tears Death March at Michigan's capitol & said: "If black people did that..." Some mentioned Reagan's gun control law after '67 Panthers protest But there are many historical examples of white people freaking out when blacks protested. (A thread)
