All this smoke for HBCUs, but to be clear: it is much more dire for Black students at historically White colleges and universities (HWCUs). These HWCUs are not enrolling many Black students, undermining Black faculty, and defunding Black Studies, diversity offices and BSUs.

“Chain of Ideas is a vital, urgent read because it decodes the mechanics of global wedge politics. . .It is a sobering, essential road map for anyone trying to understand—and survive—the anxieties defining our modern age.” A new review of my new book. open.substack.com/pub/lmwalsh/...

White patrols murder Black people who resist being shackled. Is it 1826 or 2026?

Racist Americans will say Corey Ruiz should not have resisted arrest. They will say four White officers feared for their lives. They will point to a knife to justify the police murder, hoping we ignore our own eyes; hoping we will disregard this brother’s humanity. We won’t. We regard Black life.

When you spend your political career wishing death on people around the world as a total warmonger, you cannot expect people to show compassion when you die.

On July 4, the White House slammed the Smithsonian for failing to deny the connections of “America’s Founders and Founding” to slavery. Trump & company have been refuting and censoring the facts of slavery, engaging in slavery denial. My latest @theemancipator.org. theemancipator.org/2026/07/10/i...
