I guess it went the way of “on fleek.”

I honestly thought “Fleets” meant something else, and that they’d gone out of business.

Captain America Reaction GIF

Just FYI, I realize Captain America only represents a fictionalized USA, but I think this is appropriate because of his belief system.

So many badass Black women like her and Ella Baker who get left out of the American history of the long march to freedom.

the story of the role of black women in the civil rights movement has not received as much attention as it deserves. taylor branch did a decent job of bringing out the role of women during the bus boycott and after but his trilogy was centered on mlk and not the women of the movement. i think several tall bookshelves worth of books need writing.

“It’s beautiful because it means all eyes ain’t on me,” he added, “so when I do pop up they appreciate everything they see. It’s like the McRib sandwich. It’s like the flowers outside that turn white on the bushes. It comes around when it’s getting ready to be springtime. You appreciate it.”
