On Wednesday, October 28th, the African American Policy Forum hosted our nineteenth episode of our hit series, Under the Blacklight, titled “Where Do We Go From Here - Chaos or Community?


In this special episode, AAPF Executive Director Kimberlé Crenshaw engaged in conversation with eight Under the Blacklight veteran panelists and esteemed leaders in fields ranging from congressional politics to media to community organizing: Emery Wright, Viet Thanh Nguyen, Barbara Lee, Kate Manne, Janine Jackson, Kirsten West Savali, Alicia Garza and Eddie Glaude Jr. Together, these panelists explored the aftermath of arguably the most historic election of our lifetimes.


Even with a Biden-Harris win and a Trump defeat, the United States still faces a set of daunting existential questions; while 77 million Americans came together to oust an administration that oversaw a disastrous assault on the nation’s physical, spiritual, and social well being, 72 million Americans voted to continue that status quo. And even further, exit polling data suggests that Trump not only maintained his white base, but improved his vote count from the LGBTQ+, Latinx, Asian American, and African American communities, as well as from women.


During this moment of deep societal division, can we imagine and begin to realize community in the midst of this chaos? What must we do in the face of an election that was far from a universal repudiation of the politics of destruction?


In an effort to answer those questions and effectuate a more equitable future, the panel navigated through a wide array of issues that the election results shed light on. They touched on the US’s social history that brought us to the brink, the stunning paradoxes that defined this election, the roles of race and gender in the results, the future of Trumpism and progressivism, the media coverage of America at its most vulnerable, the collective activation necessary in this watershed moment, and so much more.


You can listen to this powerful discussion in the nineteenth installment of “Under The Blacklight” as a podcast, or watch a replay of the event on YouTube (here).

Shared relaxation feels more meaningful when it becomes part of a steady routine rather than an occasional plan. A Couple Massage in Chennai is often chosen in that context, where partners include it in their schedules without making it elaborate. In a fast-moving city environment, ambience and privacy tend to shape the experience most. That balanced approach seems practical for couples managing demanding routines.

Hi, I'm a passionate accounting and finance enthusiast interested in expanding my knowledge in taxation and business compliance. GST stands for Goods and Services Tax. It is a single tax system used in India to replace multiple indirect taxes. GST simplifies the process of buying and selling goods and services by maintaining a unified tax structure across the country. It supports smoother business operations and contributes to economic growth. GST has different tax rates for various products, and businesses must register and comply with GST regulations as their turnover increases. GST Training in Tirunelveli provides structured learning to understand GST concepts, including billing, tax filing, compliance procedures, and practical application for better career opportunities.

Mình chủ yếu chơi trên điện thoại nên khá chú ý đến trải nghiệm mobile. Khi thử chuyển qua lại giữa slot, bắn cá và thể thao, mình thấy tốc độ phản hồi khá nhanh. Nội dung hiển thị rõ nên việc điều hướng cũng nhẹ nhàng. Lúc mình vào nhà cái tt88 xem tổng thể thì thấy game bài và nổ hũ cũng được bố trí khá gọn. Với mình, nếu hệ thống vẫn giữ được sự mượt mà này thì tt88casa sẽ phù hợp để dùng thường xuyên.
