Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - Six years ago today. Getting my first chemotherapy infusion. Finding humor in the pain of stage 4 colon cancer. How to Be an Antiracist taking shape in the laptop. The highly anticipated #Barracoon by Zora Neale Hurston is nearing publication in less than four months. If someone would have told me on that day that six years later I would be coming out with an adaptation of Barracoon for kids ages 8 and up, then I would not have believed them. I did not think I would be living in six years. I did not write books for kids. I could not have imagined being granted such an important opportunity. Just a PSA to say, we never know what improbable gift the future is holding for us. I only pray on this day and every day that my best friend and partner, Sadiqa, who was recently diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer, will also receive the improbable gifts of surviving and thriving. And six years from now, she is coming out with a fulfilling project that she never thought was possible. 🫶🏿

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - But House Republicans routinely reject bills that automatically registers young people to vote. They claim to be about protecting freedom. Freedom to fight and die for their wars. Not freedom to vote and push for our rights. *If passed by the U.S. Senate and signed by President Biden, which are highly unlikely, the bill would automatically registers young men for the Selective Service. This database would be used in the advent of the U.S. bringing back military conscription, or the draft.

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - When Americans commonly know their history. . .a #BlackHistoryMonth thought. [ID. Image of my following statement: When Americans commonly know their history, then #BlackHistoryMonth will not just be proudly celebrated by Black Americans. Non-Black Americans will celebrate Black History Month with nearly as much pride because they will know they have benefited from longstanding Black struggles to make freedom, equality, and democracy a reality for Black Americans by making it real for all Americans. When we say Black history is American history, it is not a slogan. It is a historical reality.]

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - The audacity. #nabj
Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - From @democracynow • The International Court of Justice has ordered Israel to take all measures within its power to prevent genocide in Gaza. The World Court announced it has jurisdiction over the case brought by South Africa and dismissed Israel’s bid to throw it out. The court says Israel must punish any incitement to genocide and ensure its military doesn’t break the Genocide Convention. This is not a call to stop military attacks but an order to adhere to the convention on genocide. The interim verdict is a major blow to Israel and the US which have undermined the case despite overwhelming evidence presented by South Africa. The court will not rule today on whether Israel has committed genocide; that verdict could take years. For more on this story, tune into democracynow.org.

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - With the coverage of student demonstrations shifting to police crackdowns, arrests and clashes with counter-protesters, one student activist told @the_emancipator that they want everyone to remember the reasons they’re out there. “I know that a lot of news wants to talk about the students and the potential showdowns with the cops because it’s sensational,” MIT Grad student Dan Zeno said, “but this is about freeing the people of Palestine.” On Tuesday, @the_emancipator spent the day with students at the Scientists Against Genocide encampment at MIT. People painted protest signs, danced to Palestinian music, restocked the communal food supply and engaged in thoughtful discussions about Palestinian liberation. Counter-protesters, who were carrying Israeli flags and posters depicting scenes from the Oct. 7 attack on Israelis by Hamas, occasionally roamed throughout the encampment and were almost entirely ignored. ✍🏻 Alex LaSalvia
Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - You listen long enough to people like this you’ll walk away thinking that White people bear little responsibility for slavery; that Black people contributed little to the abolition of slavery; that White people did it themselves; that White people saved us. What a shame.
Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - I’m glad @kamalaharris picked Minnesota Governor @timwalz to be her running mate and Vice President. I really do hope Gov. Walz is preparing to spend most of his time not before television cameras and large arenas, but in small rooms packed with rural White voters or suburban White voters. I hope he’s planning to show them that the billionaire con artist who projects himself as their defender and protector from “dangerous” immigrants—which is code for Black and Brown people—is distracting from the fact that Trump’s policies, his Project 2025, and his willingness to sell America to the highest bidder are the real threat to White rural and suburban lives and livelihoods (and the rest of our lives and livelihoods). I hope Walz offers a clear contrast between what Trump has taken off their kitchen tables (to put into the hands of racist con artists like himself) and what Kamala Harris plans to put on our kitchen tables as POTUS. Those pointed conversations with no camera in sight in small rooms with people who look like us (and don’t look like us) in rural, suburban, and urban America is where this election will be won or lost. We should all be planning to have those conversations.

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - A word on this first day of #BlackHistoryMonth.
Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - Black students remain the primary victims of reported hate attacks in U.S. schools. It is harmful *not* to teach Black students why they are facing these attacks. Because if a Black victim of a hate attack doesn’t understand anti-Black racism, then that student can blame themselves for the attack. (They hate me because there is something wrong with me, with Black people). It is harmful for non-Black students to come to the same conclusion. (They hate Black people because there is something wrong with them). It is harmful *not* to teach Jewish and queer students why they are facing hate attacks. It is harmful not to teach students of all backgrounds why people hate Black, Jewish, and queer people. It protects students to learn about anti-Black racism, antisemitism, homophobia, and transphobia. Those censoring these subjects in classrooms, those banning books on these subjects, may have contributed to this doubling of hate attacks in U.S. schools.

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - #StampedfromtheBeginning premieres today on @netflix around the world. This morning, I watched the documentary for this first time with my parents, my brother, my partner, and our daughters. What a surreal experience, watching them view and interact with the film. A few minutes after it ended, Ma walks over to me as I sit at a table collecting my emotions, reflecting on the journey from book to film. She puts her hand on my shoulder, holds back tears and says, “It is excellent.” Not long after that, Sadiqa comes over with a huge hug and smile: “It is a work of art. It is a beautiful gift for Black people. Really everyone.” A gift. 🖤 I am in awe and gratitude for the fearless, innovative, ambitious, and love-filled village that created this gift.

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - Venture capital firms, overall, provide less than 1% of their funding to Black women, and less than 2% of investment professionals at these firms are Black women. And yet, last week an appeals court did not rule any of these White-led firms as “discriminatory.” No, two Trump-appointed judges ruled as “discriminatory” the Black-women-led @fearless.fund for focusing their grants on the business owners who receive the least amount of venture funding: women of color. Racist judges keep suspending programs that openly address racial inequity and allowing programs that obviously maintain racial inequity. This is how judicial racism operates in 2024.

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - On this day, in 1965, five assassins murdered Malcolm X at the Audubon Ballroom in New York City. But they did not silence his words. Malcolm’s words still ring with relevance for our time. These quotes are from MALCOLM X SPEAKS, a collection of Malcolm’s speeches and statements, mostly from the last year of his life. I wrote the introduction for a new edition that dropped yesterday.

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - From @the_emancipator 👊🏿 • On Monday, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore issued pardons for more than 175,000 cannabis-related convictions, stating, “Marylanders should not continue to face barriers to housing, employment or educational opportunities based on convictions for conduct that is no longer illegal.” Moore’s executive order includes more than 150,000 misdemeanor convictions for simple possession of cannabis, per @guardian_us, and more than 18,000 misdemeanor convictions for use or possession with intent to use drug paraphernalia. Given that some have multiple convictions, Moore’s administration told the press that it expects to affect approximately 100,000 people convicted of misdemeanor charges. The move carries with it implications for racial equity. As per @aclu, Black people in the U.S. are more than three times as likely to be arrested for cannabis-related offenses as White people. Pardons for drug-related offenses are a small step toward remedying this inequity, but they don’t undo harm for people who have been victimized by racist drug policies. 💬 What more should states do? Let us know in the comments below. #maryland #cannabis #cannabissociety

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - “Three decades and thousands of articles and hundreds of antislavery newspapers later, a tremendous number of Americans were no longer able to be manipulated by enslavers,” @ibramxk explained at @sxsw 2024. Dr. Ibram X. Kendi and The Emancipator’s Amber Payne laid out the template for how to take a single, powerful idea and reimagine it to reach entirely new audiences. For practical insights on how you can unleash the power of storytelling to create transformative change, check out the full session at the link in our bio.
Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - This standing ovation capped off a recent #Barracoon event I’ll never forget at the Trinity United Methodist Church in Denver, organized by @tatteredcoverbookstore. The church was founded in August 1859, the same month a ship named the Clotilda arrived in Mobile, Alabama, with Cudjo Lewis and other enslaved people from West Africa. Lewis tells his life story in Zora Neale Hurston’s Barracoon, which I adapted for young readers and now is a New York Times Best Seller. Among the founders of this church was Clara Brown. Upon the death of her Kentucky enslaver, Brown had been emancipated at 56 years old around the same time Lewis had been enslaved at 18 years old. Brown traveled West in the midst of the Colorado Gold Rush. This predominantly White influx of settlers increasingly occupied Native lands and decimated Native communities in Colorado’s plains and mountains. In Gilpin County, Brown established a laundry service, the occupation of many freed Black women at that time. She saved her money and acquired housing and mining properties in Denver and Boulder. Brown became known as the “Angel of the Rockies” for opening her arms, home, and purse to formerly enslaved Black people coming to Colorado. But as she help found Trinity United Methodist Church in 1859, Brown longed for what Lewis longed for as he walked off the Clotilda that month into Alabama slavery. They longed for what human traders brutally separated: families. International human traders had separated Lewis from his parents and siblings in 1859. Decades earlier, domestic human traders had separated Brown from her husband and children. When Black people found freedom before and after the Civil War, there number one priority was usually finding family. Lewis never saw his parents and siblings again. He married after the Civil War and created a new family in AfricaTown. After decades of searching, in 1882, Brown found her daughter, Eliza Jane, in Council Bluffs, Iowa. #blackhistorymonth

Ibram X. Kendi Instagram - This standing ovation capped off a recent #Barracoon event I’ll never forget at the Trinity United Methodist Church in Denver, organized by @tatteredcoverbookstore. The church was founded in August 1859, the same month a ship named the Clotilda arrived in Mobile, Alabama, with Cudjo Lewis and other enslaved people from West Africa. Lewis tells his life story in Zora Neale Hurston’s Barracoon, which I adapted for young readers and now is a New York Times Best Seller. Among the founders of this church was Clara Brown. Upon the death of her Kentucky enslaver, Brown had been emancipated at 56 years old around the same time Lewis had been enslaved at 18 years old. Brown traveled West in the midst of the Colorado Gold Rush. This predominantly White influx of settlers increasingly occupied Native lands and decimated Native communities in Colorado’s plains and mountains. In Gilpin County, Brown established a laundry service, the occupation of many freed Black women at that time. She saved her money and acquired housing and mining properties in Denver and Boulder. Brown became known as the “Angel of the Rockies” for opening her arms, home, and purse to formerly enslaved Black people coming to Colorado. But as she help found Trinity United Methodist Church in 1859, Brown longed for what Lewis longed for as he walked off the Clotilda that month into Alabama slavery. They longed for what human traders brutally separated: families. International human traders had separated Lewis from his parents and siblings in 1859. Decades earlier, domestic human traders had separated Brown from her husband and children.

The highly anticipated #Barracoon by Zora Neale Hurston is nearing publication in less than four months. If someone would have told me on that day that six years later I would be coming out with an adaptation of Barracoon for kids ages 8 and up, then I would not have believed them. I did not think I would be living in six years. I did not write books for kids. I could not have imagined being granted such an important opportunity. Just a PSA to say, we never know what improbable gift the future is holding for us. I only pray on this day and every day that my best friend and partner, Sadiqa, who was recently diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer, will also receive the improbable gifts of surviving and thriving. And six years from now, she is coming out with a fulfilling project that she never thought was possible. 🫶🏿

The World Court announced it has jurisdiction over the case brought by South Africa and dismissed Israel’s bid to throw it out. The court says Israel must punish any incitement to genocide and ensure its military doesn’t break the Genocide Convention. This is not a call to stop military attacks but an order to adhere to the convention on genocide. The interim verdict is a major blow to Israel and the US which have undermined the case despite overwhelming evidence presented by South Africa. The court will not rule today on whether Israel has committed genocide; that verdict could take years. For more on this story, tune into democracynow.org.

Walz is preparing to spend most of his time not before television cameras and large arenas, but in small rooms packed with rural White voters or suburban White voters. I hope he’s planning to show them that the billionaire con artist who projects himself as their defender and protector from “dangerous” immigrants—which is code for Black and Brown people—is distracting from the fact that Trump’s policies, his Project 2025, and his willingness to sell America to the highest bidder are the real threat to White rural and suburban lives and livelihoods (and the rest of our lives and livelihoods). I hope Walz offers a clear contrast between what Trump has taken off their kitchen tables (to put into the hands of racist con artists like himself) and what Kamala Harris plans to put on our kitchen tables as POTUS. Those pointed conversations with no camera in sight in small rooms with people who look like us (and don’t look like us) in rural, suburban, and urban America is where this election will be won or lost. We should all be planning to have those conversations.

It is harmful *not* to teach Black students why they are facing these attacks. Because if a Black victim of a hate attack doesn’t understand anti-Black racism, then that student can blame themselves for the attack. (They hate me because there is something wrong with me, with Black people). It is harmful for non-Black students to come to the same conclusion. (They hate Black people because there is something wrong with them). It is harmful *not* to teach Jewish and queer students why they are facing hate attacks. It is harmful not to teach students of all backgrounds why people hate Black, Jewish, and queer people. It protects students to learn about anti-Black racism, antisemitism, homophobia, and transphobia. Those censoring these subjects in classrooms, those banning books on these subjects, may have contributed to this doubling of hate attacks in U.S. schools.

This morning, I watched the documentary for this first time with my parents, my brother, my partner, and our daughters. What a surreal experience, watching them view and interact with the film. A few minutes after it ended, Ma walks over to me as I sit at a table collecting my emotions, reflecting on the journey from book to film. She puts her hand on my shoulder, holds back tears and says, “It is excellent.” Not long after that, Sadiqa comes over with a huge hug and smile: “It is a work of art. It is a beautiful gift for Black people. Really everyone.” A gift. 🖤 I am in awe and gratitude for the fearless, innovative, ambitious, and love-filled village that created this gift.

And yet, last week an appeals court did not rule any of these White-led firms as “discriminatory.” No, two Trump-appointed judges ruled as “discriminatory” the Black-women-led @fearless.fund for focusing their grants on the business owners who receive the least amount of venture funding: women of color. Racist judges keep suspending programs that openly address racial inequity and allowing programs that obviously maintain racial inequity. This is how judicial racism operates in 2024.

Wes Moore issued pardons for more than 175,000 cannabis-related convictions, stating, “Marylanders should not continue to face barriers to housing, employment or educational opportunities based on convictions for conduct that is no longer illegal.” Moore’s executive order includes more than 150,000 misdemeanor convictions for simple possession of cannabis, per @guardian_us, and more than 18,000 misdemeanor convictions for use or possession with intent to use drug paraphernalia. Given that some have multiple convictions, Moore’s administration told the press that it expects to affect approximately 100,000 people convicted of misdemeanor charges. The move carries with it implications for racial equity. As per @aclu, Black people in the U.S. are more than three times as likely to be arrested for cannabis-related offenses as White people. Pardons for drug-related offenses are a small step toward remedying this inequity, but they don’t undo harm for people who have been victimized by racist drug policies. 💬 What more should states do?

Wes Moore issued pardons for more than 175,000 cannabis-related convictions, stating, “Marylanders should not continue to face barriers to housing, employment or educational opportunities based on convictions for conduct that is no longer illegal.” Moore’s executive order includes more than 150,000 misdemeanor convictions for simple possession of cannabis, per @guardian_us, and more than 18,000 misdemeanor convictions for use or possession with intent to use drug paraphernalia. Given that some have multiple convictions, Moore’s administration told the press that it expects to affect approximately 100,000 people convicted of misdemeanor charges. The move carries with it implications for racial equity. As per @aclu, Black people in the U.S. are more than three times as likely to be arrested for cannabis-related offenses as White people.

Kendi - 4K Likes - This standing ovation capped off a recent #Barracoon event I’ll never forget at the Trinity United Methodist Church in Denver, organized by @tatteredcoverbookstore. The church was founded in August 1859, the same month a ship named the Clotilda arrived in Mobile, Alabama, with Cudjo Lewis and other enslaved people from West Africa. Lewis tells his life story in Zora Neale Hurston’s Barracoon, which I adapted for young readers and now is a New York Times Best Seller. Among the founders of this church was Clara Brown. Upon the death of her Kentucky enslaver, Brown had been emancipated at 56 years old around the same time Lewis had been enslaved at 18 years old. Brown traveled West in the midst of the Colorado Gold Rush. This predominantly White influx of settlers increasingly occupied Native lands and decimated Native communities in Colorado’s plains and mountains. In Gilpin County, Brown established a laundry service, the occupation of many freed Black women at that time. She saved her money and acquired housing and mining properties in Denver and Boulder. Brown became known as the “Angel of the Rockies” for opening her arms, home, and purse to formerly enslaved Black people coming to Colorado. But as she help found Trinity United Methodist Church in 1859, Brown longed for what Lewis longed for as he walked off the Clotilda that month into Alabama slavery. They longed for what human traders brutally separated: families. International human traders had separated Lewis from his parents and siblings in 1859. Decades earlier, domestic human traders had separated Brown from her husband and children. When Black people found freedom before and after the Civil War, there number one priority was usually finding family. Lewis never saw his parents and siblings again. He married after the Civil War and created a new family in AfricaTown. After decades of searching, in 1882, Brown found her daughter, Eliza Jane, in Council Bluffs, Iowa. #blackhistorymonth
