Hey, y'all. Othello is currently taking a break so I thought I'd jumpstart the new thread since nobody else was getting to it.

How are we all doing this week? Sound down below! That means: vent, chat, gush, etc. Whatever you want to say or talk about.

As always: no crackers allowed!

Bonus discussion question:

Who are your favorite BIPOC or ethnic minority activists, organizers, labor union reps., leaders, etc. out there?

Emphasis on activists and organizers.

Can be such figures as Cesar Chavez, Rosa Parks, MLK, Jr., etc.

I want y'all to think about this one (but, like, it's not a prerequisite for joining this thread or making comments within it).

Take care and have fun!

    Bobby Seale?

    Tbh Huey was more so advocating against alienating the masses by being overly militaristic and I think he was correct in that regard. Eldridge Cleaver was trying to lead a coup in exile and also advocating a adventurist deviation which I think time has proven incorrect.

    Thank u I'll look that up
