This was inexplicably moving to me. So much so I teared up while I was eating lunch.
I have intellectually understood what the African diaspora meant/means but today was legit the first time I saw myself within it.
Like...The way he put it. The sixth African nation, dispersed, scattered, but still connected. Like an unwilling prodigal.
It hit me hard.

Tressie McMillan Cottom on spending Juneteenth with Black Oregonians and Portlanders.
(First...well, do I need to say it? I had no idea! None! Oregon wasn't really founded with diversity in mind, you know?)
Anyway. Her post is awesome. As always.

This is when I miss Black Twitter: when I need allllllll the tea on that Montgomery Alabama riverfront brawl.
But thankfully BlackTok got me.
Also, the way Black folk used that Jason Aldean song....SNORT. I love the signifyin' ways of my people. HA!

2 miles with Benson this morning.
Sweaty but feeling really good. If you saw or heard a Black woman singing Stevie Nicks as she walked her dog through Rockridge, that was me.
I have to be on a Black Women's Equal Pay Day zoom later today so I intend to enjoy this morning fully.
Let's get it!

Interesting thing from last night:
Like James Baldwin, my Bestie is getting the eff out of America.
Him: Girl, I'm done. This country is done. And I'm tired. I don’t owe this place shit. No Black person does. These people can work it out themselves. So I got an apartment in Bangkok so I can be prepared.
Hearing that from him was the first time I took serious pause and thought about my options.

Eeeh this is the only version I can find on youtube. But librivox is a pretty good alternative.
"What to the Slave is the Fourth of July" by Frederick Douglass (Audiobook format).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NNBIMYGtLoWhite feminist abolitionists asked him to make the speech on the 4th to be all festive I'm sure. He was like: "Naw, I'mma make this speech on the 5th, and you're gonna find out why."
🥴
The discomfort there must have been in the audience on the 5th! 😂 -

Did you give your all? 🎶 -
I've been getting some new blank followers from truth.social who look sus.
Blank = 0 posts; 0 followers; profile pic bringing 'let's hook up in a Walmart parking lot.'
Is truth.social janky?

I feel some kind of way seeing that Black Twitter is aflame talking about Freaknik and on the Fediverse....🦗🦗🦗. Like, there are TWO posts about it here.
I really like the Fediverse but I miss seeing Black folk talk to each other and creating Moments together.

I posit there are certain songs that folks in a shared community just know.
Like: put a bunch of Black women together of a certain age and someone starts singing 'Precious Lord' and soon we are ALL singing it and will even adjust our own renditions to create a seamless song together. Or 'Peace be Still.'
(That happened, actually. I went to a lecture at Berkeley about this gospel song mainstay and queer performance, and all the Black folk knew every word. We all sang it together when the lecturer played it. It was one of the most collectively moving experiences I've ever had.)
Also I just scrubbed the entry way, swept the doormat, wiped down the door.
Good Lordt.
