What constitutes terrorism? In a new piece from Picturing Black History, Dr. Sheneese Thompson demonstrates how the Philadelphia police turned a neighborhood to ashes in the 1980s and the desecration of the remains of the dead that followed.

"This photograph captures the widespread destruction unleashed in West Philadelphia when the police bombed the MOVE organization on May 13, 1985. The image was originally captioned, “[a]erial view of smoke rising from smouldering [sic] rubble where some 60 homes were destroyed by fire after a shootout and bombing at the back-to-nature terrorist group MOVE’s house in West Philadelphia where police were trying to force the group’s eviction.”
The caption takes a clear position in justification of the gratuitous violence the Philadelphia police employed to remove the group from their home as well as how the day’s events should be remembered. It also reflects not just the individual bias of the archivist who catalogued the photograph, but also the broader antiblack bias that shaped public perceptions of the bombing and the MOVE organization itself."

Barbers, this is what will happen when you raise your prices based on my experience of 13 years.
I already know what your thinking.. if I raise my prices, I’m gonna lose a lot of clients, lose money, piss people off, go out of business, lose everything, the list goes on.
The truth is, none of this will happen. These kind of thoughts are a false illusion, that you place in your own head.
I have raised my prices 7 times throughout my career, and not one time were these thoughts a reality.
Every time I raised my prices, I made more money, got better clients, improved my business, and achieved more peace and happiness.
I get it. As humans, sometimes we fear and do not like change.
Instead of fearing change, you must embrace change.
Easier said then done, I know.
The way that you do this however, is whenever your making a new change in your business, your life, or whatever else the change is, you must immediately think of all of the positive that will come with these changes, instead of all of the negative.
What you think, is what you will attract.
Just know that you are very valuable and you are worth a lot more then you think you are.
With that being said, do what is right for you.
You will be fine. I believe in you 🙏🏻
