I’m running out of elders. It happens all too quickly. Don’t let the opportunity pass you by!

We’re a holiday for those of us who identify as Black, African, Afro-anything. and the ones who raise, love on, nurture, and care for us. Simple as that. Whether you are adopted, or your family is biological, or chosen, this holiday honors and celebrates the many ways we make family 🤎🖤

When it’s relatives who’ve passed, I find it comforting. In my dreams, sometimes I’m back at my grandparents’ house down South and everybody’s there. (And those still alive but unwell are in full health.) Makes me feel like wherever these relatives are now, they’re OK and are thinking of me.

Ok glad ppl can see our skeets, thanks! New followers: we’re a Black holiday for Black families (adopted, bio, and chosen). Do what you do, but know that’s who we’re building for, and we’re quick to block nonsense 🤎🖤

Since we’re here: I love that the diaspora is celebrating Carnival world-wide, don’t let social media & pretty mas erase real elements of REBELLION in our history & culture. My favorite are the Jabs. In TnT blue/red devil. They are the most vulgar on purpose. The enslavers were terrified #islandsky

We live in a country where learning our actual history is a political fight. We are not okay.

Are there any archivists, genealogists, family historians or memory workers in #blacksky or #blackademics?

Thanksgiving is next week, a perfect time for interviewing elders. Each day between now and then we’ll share a question to help you get started. 1. Tell me about your hometown. What did it look, sound, and smell like?
