I thought it was the perfect time to share some illustrations of the legendary Ida B. Wells! Ida Bell Wells-Barnett was a prolific African-American investigative journalist, civil rights activist, and women’s suffragist who led an anti-lynching crusade in the United States in the 1890s. #bhm

Ida B. Wells starts to tell the story of her life. From It’s Her Story: Ida B. Wells, written by Anastasia Magloire Williams, illustrated by Alleanna Harris, and published by Sunbird Books.

Ida B. Wells says, “We'll start at the beginning, in 1862. I was born into slavery in Holly Springs, Mississippi. The Civil War was raging, but change was coming for millions of Black Americans in Confederate states like mine. President Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation!”

Ida B. Wells says, “Over the decades, I would write and publish hundreds of articles and many books on lynching, segregation, and law. I even helped push an anti-lynching bill before Congress in 1922!”

Ida B. Wells smiles and sits at her typewriter. From It’s Her Story: Ida B. Wells, written by Anastasia Magloire Williams, illustrated by Alleanna Harris, and published by Sunbird Books.

I am not just healing—I’m remembering. The waters knew me before the wounds did. Yemoja holds me. The ancestors guide me. The Most High God embodies me. #DestinyLoading 🌊🐚✨ #Yemoja #AncestralWisdom #WomanistSpirit #SpiritualRebirth #DivineAlignment #HealingIsHoly #BlackSky

Today, is my friend’s birthday! 🥳🥳🥳 And there are 3 ways I am asking you to celebrate him… 1) Go to his gaming stream and drop a happy birthday! Twitch.tv/kanji520 2) Buy him a “drink” and by drink I mean give a donation to the St. Jude fundraiser that he is gaming for.

As a young black girl in the suburbs, I was too intimidated to walk into a comic book store. It felt like a space that wasn't really for me. Now, I'm healing that inner child. I'm showing up for her, claiming my space, and unapologetically embracing the joy I deserve. #Blacksky #blackbooksky

For all the marginalized folks in the gaming industry and beyond who have been or fear being targeted/doxxed/stalked by hate and harassment campaigns, I just discovered Kanary. It’s a free, automated app that scans for and removes sensitive data (address, photo leaks).

Seeking book recs for the erotica genre … asking for me, a writer trying to learn something. Virtual hugs if it’s Black, indigenous, and/or queer. #blackbooksky

🇭🇹 Happy Independence Day, Haiti! ✊🏾✨ The Haitian Revolution, led by courageous women like Cécile Fatiman, was a beacon of hope, proving that Black people could not only overthrow slavery but also build an independent nation. ✊🏿✊🏽✊🏼 “We are not fighting for glory, but for liberty.” - Cécile Fatiman
