Robin D. G. Kelley wrote FREEDOM DREAMS for his students. After the acquittal of Amadou Diallo’s killers in 2002, they questioned why there were no movements like the Black Panther Party. But there are movements everywhere—just not ones defined by victory. buff.ly/3TPMlM3

“What it means to be a revolutionary is to fight for those who may not fight for you. It’s about learning to fight for others.” This is why we need Robin D. G. Kelley today as much as we needed him in 2002 when FREEDOM DREAMS came out. @theprogressive buff.ly/3pQS5au

COVID deaths are disproportionately spiking in Black + Brown communities. Why? Because the chronic toll of redlining, environmental racism, wealth gap, etc. ARE underlying health conditions. Inequality is a comorbidity. COVID relief should be drafted with a lens of reparations.
