Very excited to share with folks that Joshua Williams was finally freed today, and smiling ear-to-ear on a Group FaceTime chat after being released this afternoon and on a long ride back to St. Louis. Josh was a Ferguson political prisoner who was so so wronged, but that’s for joyous day as Josh feels what freedom feels like and a real meal tastes like. #MikeBrown

Before the USA 🇺🇸 and long before Haiti 🇭🇹, a Black leader founded the first free Black nation in the Americas.
Benkos Biohó escaped slavery in Colombia 🇨🇴 and created San Basilio de Palenque, a symbol of Black resistance that still exists today.

This isn’t Africa—it’s San Basilio de Palenque, Colombia 🇨🇴. This is how a traditional wedding is celebrated, similar to those in most African countries.

Bill Maher’s guest claims France is still “living off” Haiti — and then all hell breaks loose.
“The French pulled out of Haiti in like 1806,” Maher shot back at Killer Mike, who was pushing for reparations.
But the comment that got Mike visibly triggered is when Maher said: en repressing the people in Haiti for a very long time are not French.”
“You sh*tting me?” Mike said, shocked.
“They’re other Haitians,” Maher declared firmly.
At this point, Mike could see the narrative unraveling and desperately claimed that Haiti is still sending money to France.
“Sending money?” Maher refuted quickly. That claim didn’t last long.
By the end of the exchange, Killer Mike’s argument shifted from the French are still oppressing Haiti to “put something in my pocket” for the past.

Netanyahu admits Israel is arming gangs and clan members in Gaza to counter Hamas's influence, and new evidence shows Israel is using them to loot aid and implement its displacement plan. In response, the Hamas government set up the “Arrow Unit.” mondoweiss.net/2025/06/inside…
