“Our son’s life does not matter to those who hold positions that are supposed to serve and protect the public.”
Those are the words of Nolan Wells’ mother. We demand justice for Nolan Wells and all the other Black youth whose deaths our justice system has failed.

On Dolly Parton Day, we remember a woman who didn’t just say Black lives mattered. She showed it.
From supporting Black artists and BLM to investing royalties in Black Nashville and putting millions of free books in kids’ hands, Dolly put compassion into action.

Trump wants to erase millions of us from the 2030 Census.
His new proposal would exclude non-citizens and other minorities from the population count required by the Constitution.
Tell the Census Bureau: Every person counts, no exceptions. Here: bit.ly/4y2YroR

Hey, @DoorDash. We fixed it.
A lukewarm admission and a forced settlement barely begins to make things right for all the app-based workers you’ve exploited.
So, when can we expect a settlement for all dashers who haven’t received a fair wage?

Converse. Target. Burberry. Gucci. Prada. Different companies. Same story: racist ads and products, public backlash, then an apology.
How does this keep happening? When Black voices aren’t in the room, companies miss what should’ve been obvious.

AI is opening Pandora’s box. Black communities already face discrimination in hiring, housing, healthcare, policing, and access to opportunity. AI can automate those same biases and spread them faster, farther, with less accountability.
We need stronger rules and real oversight.

Our Black political leaders fighting at the Hill to bring justice and equality to all Black communities deserve their flowers.
That's why we honored @RepPressley, @RepMaxwellFrost and @RepBeatty. Thanks to @MACKWILDS for hosting such a powerful celebration.

On September 15, 1963, white supremacists bombed the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, killing four Black girls.
They targeted a church that had become a center of the Civil Rights Movement.

In a win for voters, the Supreme Court has rejected Trump’s attempt to reinstate restrictions on mail voting ahead of November’s elections.
For generations, Black communities have fought to expand voting access.

It’s modern-day slavery. A GOP Super PAC paid Oklahoma $10/hour for incarcerated people to make political phone calls. The prisoners were paid just $2/hour.

Bribery? Is that where we are?
Trump promised to give Americans $5k if the GOP wins the midterm elections – just another one of his empty promises while he fails to make groceries affordable, lower gas prices, and improve our healthcare. It's a desperate attempt to get votes.

Trump is weaponizing the I.R.S. against schools with race-based programs, threatening to disqualify their tax-exempt status. It is yet another attempt to silence those who are in direct opposition to his authoritarian control. Learn more: thegrio.com/2026/09/03/trump…

Before Black kids could imagine themselves in the stars, they needed to see someone already there.
From Uhura inspiring generations to pursue STEM to Victor Glover traveling to the Moon, the future we see can shape the future we build.
Happy Star Trek Day! 🖖🏿
ALT Black people have been reaching for the stars for generations. HAPPY STAR TREK DAY!
ALT Nichelle Nichols Before Black women were seen commanding a bridge. Nichols was doing it in the 1960's as Nyota Uhura aboard the Enterprise. She showed generations of viewers that Black women belonged in science, technology, leadership, and the future.
ALT Victor Glover The kids who saw themselves in space grew up and went there. “Science and Star Trek go hand-in-hand.” Victor Glover credited Star Trek as an inspiration for his career as an Astronaut. He went on to pilot the Artemis II mission and is the first black person to reach the Moon.
ALT Seeing yourself in the future is the first step toward building it.

They call it “budget cuts.” We call it what it is: another attack on Black history.
Across the country, Black Studies are being cut, merged, and pushed aside as Trump and Republicans wage a broader war on how race and history are taught.

Your grocery list shouldn’t come with a side of “wait… is this going to make me sick?” 🤢
Safe food shouldn’t depend on your ZIP code or your bank account.
We need to put public health first.

When a Black person dies, gets arrested, or makes headlines, watch the story shift. Suddenly it’s about their past, family, rumors, and speculation. That’s the character assassination playbook.

You haven’t gotten a tariff refund check, right? Corporations are.
We paid $231 BILLION in tariff costs—roughly $1,745 per family—yet we’re not getting a refund.
Bottom line: Big corporations are getting billions back in tariff refunds. Our community keeps paying the price.

"Looking closely at how it happened.”
Start by looking at what you cut, @Target. No DEI. A blackface-evoking costume modeled by a Black child passed through every step of approval.
You can’t sideline Black employees, insult Black folks, and expect Black dollars at checkout.

America was built on Black labor. A project born from bondage.
406 years ago, Black people were brought here in chains. Yet we survived, resisted, created, organized, and built.
Black history isn’t a footnote to American history. It is American history.
