A damn shame they would treat her like that. Glad she left that place. A really jarring editorial in The New York Times. So sad black people in the United Kingdom have to be treated so terribly. #blacksinuk #blackbritishpeople #meghanmarkle #unitedkingdom #theroyalfamily
It’s the racism.

This was a great article about hip hop and environmentalism by Yale Environment 360. We celebrating the green even if it's not cannabis. #hiphop #environmentalism #yaleuniversity
The environmental movement has largely failed to connect with people of color and marginalized urban communities. By confronting issues from contaminated water to climate change, hip hop music can help bridge that divide and bring home the realities of environmental injustice.

Great article by Culture Collide on Switzerland and hip hop. First time reader of this publication. #switzerland #swisshiphop #hiphop #internationalhiphop
The music that they produce is a singular alloy that fuses the laid back end of a golden-age East Coast sound (after Dilla already did his thing) new school variations of 60s soul (if that even makes sense?) and African music with a preference for all types of Northern and West-African genres.

Wished I was in Texas to attend this conference. So much knowledge and interesting conversations to be had. Much love to Teresa Lozano Long Institute of Latin American Studies for hosting this. Black women everywhere matter and their stories deserve to be told. #blackinlatinamerica #blackwomen #lozanolongconference2020
Black women from Latin America have largely been excluded from contemporary debates in Black and Latin American Studies. Race, gender/sexuality, and regional origin (which is inherently a classed categorization) compound to mute voices in unique ways. The duality of racism and sexism rampant in the....
Much love to the #garifuna community for always representing and holding it down. #honduras #centralamerica
