On this day in 1972, ‘CABARET’ released in theaters. Liza Minnelli went on to win the Oscar for Best Actress for her iconic performance as Sally Bowles.
It's crazy how fast the media got over the leading Republican candidate losing $83M to the woman he raped.

Today's Feature: In this installment of What Sparks Poetry: Language as Form, @seminewblack writes on "women's voting rights at one hundred (but who's counting?)." Read here: poems.com/features/what-…
Hind Rajab, the 6-year-old whose harrowing call with emergency dispatchers was heard around the world as the terrified child begged for someone to come get her, was found dead on Saturday. Rescue workers appear to have been killed by Israeli fire just yards away from her vehicle.
the degradation of language, to say anything but children—💔 what do we do with this english?
BREAKING: Health officials say more than 12,300 Palestinian minors have been killed in Israel's war on Hamas in Gaza apnews.com/article/israel…
Re-read @CharifShan’s Trace Evidence. His poems don’t end at their final words. They keep going in my body, brain. Who “belongs”? And if so, to what?

Happy Birthday Madame Leontyne Price, 97 years young! Where is this icon's long overdue documentary?!
If you combine Wizard of Oz and Jonathan Bailey, you can bet I’m going to be seated.
We had 15 presidential debates in the last election, and not one time did they have a 30-minute conversation on how presidential candidates would address poverty and low wages. Poverty is the fourth leading cause of death in this country. It is a moral and political issue.
This is one of the best explanations I’ve seen online about the ongoing conflict in Congo, please have a watch.
Seeing the first correct headline from a a Western media outlet about Hind. Disgraceful that it took this long.
