An UPstander is someone who sees something and takes a stand. Here we will explore issues relating to social justice. Some posts will be motivational, some educational. Some times I may drop a rhyme or poem! The goal is to share stories and opinions that help us build a human family. Share your thoughts and share with others!
#shannonsharpe did not have the same discipline that he has for his physique that he should have had for his relationships. It’s wrong to throw him into categories of people like R. Kelly or Cosby. At the same time, his inability to not care for the “ick” factor of an older Black m...

#shannonsharpe did not have the same discipline that he has for his physique that he should have had for his relationships. It’s wrong to throw him into categories of people like R. Kelly or Cosby. At the same time, his inability to not care for the “ick” factor of an older Black man dating a teenage White girl while working for @Disney was the big mistake. I find the language of the settlement about them being in a consensual relationship suspect as well. What do you think?

#trump is throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks. He has brought up charging #obama, #oprah, #kamalaharris and #beyonce for various reasons, including treason.

#trump is throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks. He has brought up charging #obama, #oprah, #kamalaharris and #beyonce for various reasons, including treason. All this to distract from the #epsteinfiles and his connection. When all else fails, Trump will point the finger at Black people to scapegoat. I am glad that America is not falling for it…at least not yet.

Have you noticed that many people that support #israel are no longer saying these 7 words? I think that is something that Netanyahu should pay attention as support for the war on #gaza continues. More networks and shows that have been very pro-Israel like #morningjoe are using terms like #genocide or “unraveling genocide”, and more. This was unheard of in the wake of the tragic events of October 7th. The forced starvation occurring in Gaza is turning out to be a tipping point that may lead Israel to losing much of the international support it has garnered since that day. What do you think?

Some of the rising stars in the democratic party are very open about their faith. Is this something more democrats should be doing?

On @jubilee “Surrounded” series, journalist Mehdi Hasan debated 20 #maga students. What they said was dangerous. To hear so many young people proudly proclaim themselves to be nazis, fascists, racists, and even openly embrace the shooting of children in the head in #gaza should trouble us all. These people need to be engaged rather than dismissed because they’re not going anywhere. In fact they want anyone who doesn’t look like them to go. We ignore these people at our own expense.

The comments over my last few posts denying any African lineage for Black Americans is really sad. Whether you’re Black, Black American, ADOS, FBA, African American, or whatever, you don’t lose anything by acknowledging that your roots are in Africa. You can only gain from stretching out your historical lineage. No other group does this as much as we do. Of course many Black Americans acknowledge their ancestry, but enough of us don’t to make it problematic. Someone said in one chat that they don’t even know what the term “African American” means. My response. RESEARCH! It’s not hard. This was the point of the enslavement process and we shouldn’t give them that win. #african #africa #tether #ados #fba

@FoxNews #greggutfeld wants to adopt “Nazi” for #maga people like “The Blacks” use the n-word. 1) note that they want to normalize being called a #nazi but we can’t compare this to Nazi germany right? This should also be condemned as #antisemitic to evoke that right? Secondly, ALL B...

@FoxNews #greggutfeld wants to adopt “Nazi” for #maga people like “The Blacks” use the n-word. 1) note that they want to normalize being called a #nazi but we can’t compare this to Nazi germany right? This should also be condemned as #antisemitic to evoke that right? Secondly, ALL Black people don’t use the n-word. This is what I mean when I say it doesn’t matter if you’re #ados #fba or something else. We must unite!
Also, said that I thought #jessicatarlov made the “Nazi please” statement because of the way the camera cut to her but apparently it was Kennedy so I wanted to correct the record here.

I unfortunately saw the #superman movie (spoilers here). It was bad but I didn’t walk out of the movie seeing all the things #maga people are seeing as well as the talk about the movie being antisemitic? I find it unfortunate that we are at a point where every single thing has to be politicized in unecesary ways. What do you think?

It is wrong for #joescarborough to say it’s too early to ask questions about the tragic flooding in Texas. From what I’ve seen over the weekend, no one is taking any accountability from the local and state to the federal level. This is not a “The buck stops with me” administration. Everyone is already pointing fingers and we have seen this time and again with this administration from the plane crash to this. The people we have lost to these tragedies deserve better than this.
