I just published #HERITAGELYNCHING link.medium.com/JkjokpxkaJb . #followme #follow #travel #BlackTwitter #BlackLivesMatter #Alabama @WarOnDumb @NPR @aldotcom @NPS_Press @SavingPlaces @HHPreservItNPS
A big shout out to Dr. Kelly Lytle Hernandez on being honored as a 2018 KCET Local Hero! The work you and the #MillionDollarHoods team do is vital to advancing social justice and we could not be more proud. Congratulations! 👏🏾 We see y’all, MDH!! ✊🏽
How is it whitewashed histories get written about regarding Black bodies/histories by White writers and get accolades such as Pulitzer Prizes? When a Black person writes about (OUR) Black bodies /histories they get overlooked, fired, or invalidated? i.e. 1619. #heritagelynching
I got accepted to a PhD in History at University of Alabama in 2021. After an awkward virtual welcome day...I turned it down because it felt like I would be on the Underground Railroad in terms of advocating for myself as a "radical" Black woman on that campus.

npr.org/2024/04/21/124… Thanks for this article. @NPR @LauraSullivaNPR It addresses injustices I have been on my soapbox about. The ommission of information amounts to a #heritagelynching. False markers are all over Eufaula. studyofhate.ucla.edu/2022/08/18/gon…
Good morning Ya'll. I am working (researching) on my thesis at USC in my heritage conservation program, continuing research from UCLA and I did a new thing. On 04/24/24 I coined the term #heritagelynching.
🚨🔥BREAKING: Legendary rapper Cheif Keef just said that President Trump is about to have all the blacks on his back. The 2024 election will be a landslide. Democrats forced the street culture on Black America. It’s poetic Justice because that culture support mugshots. They dug…
Please explain why @USC is not cancelling school tomorrow and @LAUSD_Achieve has‼️ No consideration for parenting students.🧐 #usc #parentingstudent #HurricaneHilary
I am going to make it a point to publicly document every-time I am publicly profiled.
Yesterday I was racially profiled while shopping @bristolfarms in Westwood. A man followed my children and myself around. At self check out he stood over me and watched my entire transaction. When I was done he reprinted my receipt and said I must have received a discount.
Just left racist ass @WellsFargo bank in @MissionViejoCA and this teller asks me are you visiting. As a California native, I was puzzled. I said visiting where? She said Laguna Niguel. I told her no I live in the OC. I guess my Black ass couldn’t be a resident. Closing my acct
Generational effects of white supremacy are unspeakable and financial compensation is deserved for all descendants of enslaved Africans.Robbed of our language, culture , heritage and when freed generational wealth. #BlackTwitter #reparations #brucesbeach #manhattanbeach
A month after having Covid, 2 weeks after having a miscarriage and watching the 1619 project episode on Race, I finally get a chance to see the @nhannahjones and I get flu like symptoms the day of and could not attend😞Please let me meet her one day. #1619project #CRT #usc
Totally agree…as an Alabama girl now living in Los Angeles. It is time for Alabama to legalize, so I can get my cannabis farm growing on my land out there. My green thumb is itching to get back to my family’s farming roots!

It’s past time for Alabama to legalize cannabis and end the injustices of its criminalization. Legalization has overwhelming bipartisan support amongst the American people. 18 states have already legalized. It’s time for Alabama to join them. Let’s be a leader on this issue.

racially profiled @BurgerKing on Sepulveda and Palms in Los Angeles. The workers were mocking me, refusing service when we were initially at the front door then began to record me and my MINOR child when we went to speak with someone and complain. #blacktwitter #racism #Help
