We can all agree that the U.S. presidential candidates and the politics post-Obama is in total disarray; not helped by the abhorrently elderly and out of touch candidates. In addition, the absurdness of having a felon running for office especially after January 6 (it wasn't just an insurrection, he attempted a coup by threatening the former VP) is an affront to democracy. This system is cracking, it cracks grow because of the electoral college. Here are a few sources and opinions as to why the electoral college permits criminals and threats to the republic to run for office and blight 🇺🇸 democracy.

Did he really think Black people would support his dead beat act with his dark kids to give a better life to his biracial and lighter kids?

Some Facebook users made comments about McKnight’s issues with his children beneath a concert announcement, which may have led to the show being cancelled.

Day: 9

• On Feb. 21, 1965, minister and civil rights activist Malcolm X, 39, was shot to death inside Harlem’s Audubon Ballroom in New York. Assassinated while addressing the Organisation of Afro-American Unity (OAAU). His assailants included members of the group in which Malcolm had previously risen through the ranks: the Nation of Islam (NOI). At the time of his death, he was just 39 years old.

• In the build up to his killing, El-Shabazz knew he was a marked man, owing to constant surveillance from the FBI and local authorities in addition to threats from the NOI after his fallout with their leader, Elijah Muhammad, and his eventual embracing of Sunni Islam.

Although he grew up in Lansing, Michigan, El-Shabazz was born Malcolm Little on 19 May 1925, in Omaha, Nebraska. After his father’s murder, his mother’s mental health deteriorated, and this led young Malcolm and his siblings to go into foster care. He would later lead a life of crime in Boston and New York City’s Harlem. He was eventually arrested and imprisoned.

• Although he was once nicknamed “Satan” for his irreligious views, once in prison Malcolm underwent a transformative journey. Despite being illiterate, he used his time to educate himself, opening his mind to knowledge and discovering a sense of belonging within the NOI after his eldest brother Wilfred recruited him into the group.

• In 1964, Malcolm announced his split from the NOI, after some internal disputes and scandals involving Elijah Muhammad, before undertaking a tour of the Middle East, Africa and Europe, visiting many Muslim countries in the process. He performed the Islamic pilgrimage, the Hajj, to the holy city of Makkah. Thereafter he was called El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz.

Day 6: Convinced that the role of African-American history was being ignored or misrepresented, Dr. Carter G. Woodson, who did not graduate high school until age 22, began his quest to educate America about the accomplishments of black Americans.

After earning his Ph.D. at Harvard in 1912, becoming the second African-American to do so at the time, Woodson founded the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History. He realized the need for special research into the black American’s life and history. The association began pressing for a “Negro History Week” as a way to explore the contributions of African Americans.

In 1976, the renamed Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History expanded Black History Week into Black History Month.

Thank you to the father of this month of reflection and celebration, Dr. Carter G. Woodson.

Arturo Alfonso Schomburg (1874–1938) was a Puerto Rican American historian, writer, curator, and activist.

Schomburg’s interest in the history of the African diaspora stemmed from racism he experienced starting at a young age. He recalled that a grade schoolteacher in San Juan told him that black culture lacked any prominent individuals and noteworthy history. Hearing this, Schomburg dedicated his life and work to refuting this claim and collecting physical proof of black intellect, accomplishment, and historic importance.

By the early 1920s, he was an active member of the Negro Society for Historical Research and the American Negro Academy and he had created a personal archive which he made available to scholars and young people. 🇵🇷✊🏾

Day 3: Medgar Evers killing was just at the start of the pattern of domestic terrorism that would, in some ways, define the era—the murders of John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King and others had not yet occurred. The daylight killing of a man of Evers’ stature and significance was appalling.
