One risky choice. A ripple of tragedy. A story too many families know.

Atlanta filmmaker Angelita Able is breaking the silence on the fentanyl crisis with her debut film One Time. The movie follows a group of young adults whose lives are forever changed after one decision leads to devastating loss.

But Angelita’s vision goes beyond film, it’s about sparking conversations, offering grief support, and reminding families they are not alone in this fight. One Time is a movie to heal, to talk, and to act.

I was just 5 years old when Assata Shakur escaped Clinton Correctional. Growing up, neither in school nor in my household did I ever hear her story.

One day, walking through Newark Penn Station, her autobiography caught my eye. I picked it up, purchased it, and from the very first page, I was engulfed in the story of a Black woman who fought for the liberation of her people.

Reading Assata’s words filled my young self with pride, courage, and determination. They gave me exactly what I needed when I began IMPACT Magazine; reminding me of the power of voice, resistance, and legacy.

May Assata Shakur rest in eternal peace.

“Like most poor and oppressed people in the United States, I do not have a voice. Black people, poor people in the U.S. have no real freedom of speech, no real freedom of expression and very little freedom of the press. The black press and the progressive media has historically played an essential role in the struggle for social justice. We need to continue and to expand that tradition. We need to create media outlets that help to educate our people and our children, and not annihilate their minds.”

The math is not mathing… Disney has lost $4 BILLION and brought back… and has lost $12 BILLION and holding firm on this boycott.

Somebody break down the math for me… or shall I guesstimate?

For far too long, menopause and perimenopause have lived in the shadows of our health conversations. Add the weight of mental wellness challenges, stress, anxiety, depression, and the silence becomes even heavier.

On Tuesday, November 18th at 6PM, that silence will be broken. At the in Salt Lake City, and will host Unmuted: Mind. Body. IMPACT. a health town hall designed to spark truth-telling out loud, connection, and healing.

The evening begins with a 10 minute special screening of The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause, a moving documentary that opens the door to dialogue and empathy. From there, the town hall will unfold through conversations with doctors, practitioners, and thought leaders:

• Unmuted Truths, a fireside chat with Dr. William A. Smith and IMPACT’s , will unpack the behavioral health challenges too many women face alone: stress, anxiety, and depression.

We are at a point where mainstream media has been bought and is being used to spread misinformation and propaganda. The recent firings: Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, , , , feel less like isolated personnel moves and more like a pattern.

Now more than ever you must support Black media, not the gossip, not the celebrity noise, but the journalism that protects speech, civil rights, and community power. We are in dangerous territory. If you think this won’t touch your life, ask yourself this: how many calculated actions are they willing to take to get to their end game? Do you even know what that end game is?

History is the teacher. Have we learned anything? Or are we choosing blindness while the narrative gets rewritten?

Speak up. Support local and Black-owned outlets. Share responsibly. Ask the hard questions. This moment demands more than scrolling.

So many of you are asking how does HBCU’s factor into this equation with Charlie Kirk who was killed in a majority white state, with a majority white audience, at a white college. The brilliant Historian and author Stacey Patton breaks it all down.

“Whiteness, as a system, has always been rooted in projection. It cannot bear its own reflection, so it casts its sins onto others. If white America confronts the fact that white men are the ones pulling most of the triggers, the mythology of white innocence collapses. If white conservatives admit that the violence is homegrown, they lose the scapegoat that allows them to sustain their fantasy of being besieged victims. It’s not logical. It’s psychological compulsion built into the very DNA of white supremacy.

So every time white rage explodes, whiteness must find a darker canvas on which to paint the consequences. Blackness becomes the dumping ground for white anxiety. That’s why a shooting at a white university somehow morphs into threats against HBCUs. It’s not logical. It’s psychological compulsion built into the very DNA of white supremacy.”

Your thoughts…

You can’t make this up… racial profiling is legal

According to , The Supreme Court has once again tipped the scales in favor of President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda. In a 6–3 decision, the conservative majority lifted a lower-court restraining order that had temporarily barred federal agents from conducting roving immigration patrols in and around Los Angeles.

At the heart of the case is a question of power, and protection. The restraining order had been put in place to stop agents from detaining people based solely on their race, language, occupation, or location. For many in immigrant communities, those protections meant safety from arbitrary stops and sudden detentions.

Justice Brett Kavanaugh, writing in a concurring opinion, argued that the lower court had overreached. He warned that judicial interference could “chill lawful immigration enforcement efforts.” But Justice Sonia Sotomayor, in a fiery dissent joined by Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson, painted a very different picture.

“Countless people in the Los Angeles area have been grabbed, thrown to the ground, and handcuffed simply because of their looks, their accents, and the fact they make a living by doing manual labor,” Sotomayor wrote. “Today, the Court needlessly subjects countless more to these exact same indignities.”

The ruling fits a larger pattern: the Court has repeatedly allowed Trump’s most aggressive policies to move forward on an interim basis, even as legal challenges continue. While the justices left open the possibility that future challenges to the scope of ICE’s force could succeed, the immediate result is clear, immigration agents now have a freer hand in Los Angeles and beyond.

Meanwhile, enforcement efforts are ramping up elsewhere. In Washington, ICE activity coincides with Trump’s controversial federal takeover of local law enforcement and the deployment of the National Guard.

It really should be studied, how people can build you up, then take pride in tearing you down.

took to the internet, as she does daily, to share an encouraging word. This time, she spoke on entrepreneurship, reminding folks that if things aren’t going as planned, it’s okay to get a job to keep yourself and your family afloat.

Nowhere in that video did she belittle anyone. She didn’t say people were a burden. She didn’t speak down. She simply shared her own journey, including the jobs she worked just to keep her end of the bills paid. Let’s not forget, the world was first introduced to her while she was driving Uber!

Yet the think pieces of outrage began rolling in. From people saying they unfollowed her months ago because she “talks down,” she thinks to highly of herself, and the wildest one, someone saying she’s telling people to get a job while wearing diamond bracelets and Gucci. Wait… what?

This is what happens when comprehension is replaced with criticism. Some people sit quiet, waiting for their moment to jump in. They stay dormant until there’s a slip, a message, or even just a misunderstanding, then rush out of the woodwork to tear someone down.

Tabitha Brown was encouraging entrepreneurs that it’s okay to work while you build. That’s wisdom, not arrogance.

A woman we’ve all watched come up, who walked through some of the same struggles, now being treated like she can’t relate or speak on it? That’s wild.
