Peace #blackbookstagram fam, This message is to provide notice that we will no longer be appealing @facebook's constant rejections of our content. Although we have worked tirelessly to present and introduce #blackauthors and #blackillustrators on our @instagram page, we do not have the bandwidth to dispute these item rejections or defend the integrity of our account. Since we've launched @popupstorytime, we've been forced to jump through hoops and constantly prove our content is not illicit. While there appears to be no rhyme or reason behind our #books being flagged other than the fact that we primarily highlight #blackwriters, the frequency and range in which they have been censoring our content has become too much to bear. Either we're appealing a new post or receiving an email regarding the compliance of an old post and none of it makes sense. Our intent has always been to provide a platform for #Blerds to be #seenandheard and to transform #publicspaces into #centersforthearts. Although we have been providing free #communityarts programs since 2009, in 2019 we launched our #popupbookshop and #onlinebookstore to #maketheartsmoreaccessible. Essentially, for the past 13 years we have been a destination for #positiverecreation and #freefamilyfun yet the #facebook and #instagram algorithms do not appear to take that into account. If you would like to continue to engage with #scribesandvibes, please visit the #linkinbio and/or join us at @coffeehouseandculture for the latest @scribesandvibes news. We remain committed to our mission to #amplifyblackvoices and #makeitcooltobesmart. Although we've decided to no longer beg these platforms to provide a place for our #bookcommunity to belong, we will continue to hold space at #coffeeshops, #libraries, and #bookstores. Does this mean Scribes & Vibes will no longer have a presence on Facebook or Instagram? No. All this means is that I am #reclaimingmytime and #reclaimingmyenergy and it may be best to #shopscribesandvibes from our website instead of the fb or ig store. Until next time, #freeyourmind and #supportblackownedbookstores. ✊🏾 One love, Stevie https://www.instagram.com/p/CgMF63XO3jK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#FREEMUMIA! #FREEMUTULU! #TheRevolution Will Not Be Streamed on hulu. There will be no exposés on #policecorruption, The Revolution Will Not Be Binged on Netflix without commercial interruption. -Stevie #freethefreedomfighters poem | THE REVOLUTION ・・・ #vibewise: What, to me, does the British debtor's day of independence mean? For what is "My Country of Thee" to mean to me, When my #freedomfighters still ain't free? Sometimes I wonder how their "#WARONDRUGS" turned our heroes to feigns. To express #sentimentsofsankofa, sometimes I pan back and pledge allegiance to the #REDBLACKANDGREEN. When I'm #walkingwiththeancestors, sentiments of #NOBODYSFREEUNTILEVERYBODYSFREE begins to resound. Sometimes I look back at #SenecaVillage, the #OpelousasMassacre, the #RosewoodMassacre, the #GreenwoodMassacre, and other historical black towns less renowned... Then I have nightmares of the pigment deficient pilfering "The American Dream." Is it me, or does the land of milk and honey seem hazardous to one's health? Peace to the #BlackYogis, #BlackFarmers, and #BlackTherapists that are fostering a return to #holistichealth. If ye know like I know, #healthiswealth. If we are to reclaim #knowledgeofself, ye must #supportblackownedbookstores and uplift #BlackLibrarians and #BlackEducators for they teach the children to #doforself. If we are to attain #economicindependence, ye must understand, #groupeconomics is they key to #BlackWealth. O', before I go, you oughtta know I'm #rootingforeverybodyblack if nothing else. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfmn8kDPi-r/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#supportblackownedbookstores ✊🏾 Repost @onyxxbookstorecafe ・・・ For over 30 plus years I wanted to own a Bookstore Cafe and in February of 2020 I fulfilled that dream. We were opened for 3 weeks before Covid hit. Didn't see that coming but thankfully we made it through. It's been some highs and lows. The community has been very supportive but we're needing some help keeping our doors open. The increase in cost of goods and being able to pay our overhead has been difficult. We would love to continue to be a source for our community and provide job opportunities for the youth. In order to be able to do this we need your help. Any amount will help us greatly. 🖤 http://spot.fund/KeepOnyxBookstoreCafeOpen (#linkinbio) -#onyxbookstorecafe ・・・ #vibewise: please support our brothers and sisters with brick-and-mortar locations. as #readingisarevolutionaryact and #imrootingforeverybodyblack , all that i ask is that you #turnupabook and mute your tell-lie-vision stations. it's time to #changethefrequency and #raisethevibration. #acandlelosesnothingbylightinganothercandle, it costs nothing to like a post or share an ig handle. i mean there's no reason for a #blackstore to close it's doors when the publishing giants are standing on the shoulders of the #blackbookstagram nation. but don't mind me, #mypoemsarenotpoems, i'm just here to amplify the #blackeconomy & assert it's proper perspective. it's time to explore #theartsfromaneconomicperspective. they implore #moneypowerrespect yet #blackeconomicpower is collective. respectively we need to keep #theblackdollar circulating within #theblackcommunity. #doforself yet #dotheknowledge to understand the wisdom of #blackwealth is the accumulative result of #blackunity. how you gon' seek #knowledgeofself when the keepers of culture no longer hold the keys to the mysteries? for #itwaswritten, etched in stone, papyrus & paper, commerce brought #theblackmanwomanandchild cross continents when our european neighbors were cave dwellers. to express #sentimentsofsankofa, #blackbookstores are reminiscent to the master builders & storytellers. #ase! Black booksellers are cornerstones of community and cultural identity. -stevie https://www.instagram.com/p/CeMzLWBgwDj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
