Bootlickers Blind To Evidence Of Institutional Racism
The subject of entrenched racism and its poisonous persistence sparked a bunch of BS from T.S. on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean recently.

Come home to Feng shui — a sonnet
I’m living in a teepee with my dog and an owl, I’m defrosting the freezer back to 2015. I’m burying my youth with a silver trowel Changing my favorite color to green. I’m taking charge of my space now, Moving my bed to face west. I’m removing the barcode from my brow Changing my password, …

No More Police Killings of Kids!
The latest police murder — and that’s what it was whatever the circumstances — of 16-old foster child Ma’Khia Bryant by a Columbus, Ohio cop, is sickening to watch.
