I wish I subscribed to WSJ so I could cancel my subscription! Disgusting, sexist editorial.

“The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.” --Mitch McConnell, February 2016 (within an hour of Justice Scalia's death)

You've probably seen this before. But, damn, it does the heart good to see it again. (And, yes, I'm crying. So what?!)

Happy Loving Day!!

Happy Loving Day! My parents marriage was illegal in 1958 (in Maryland). The Supreme Court didn’t overturn the ban on interracial marriage til 1967. Here I am with them in 1966!

If you’re unbothered or mildly bothered by the 1st knee, but outraged by the 2nd, then, in my father’s words, you’re “more devoted to order than to justice.” And more passionate about an anthem that supposedly symbolizes freedom than you are about a Black man’s freedom to live.

Alternate take on Central Park Karen incident: this stuff and worse used to happen all the time with no documentation or consequences. The mass outrage and fallout for that woman makes me optimistic that behavior like hers will become increasingly deterred and socially unviable.

3 before killed at South Carolina State on 2/28/1968. 11 days later after Kent State, 2 were killed at Jackson State. These killings were almost ignored by the nation. Oh wait! The students were black. Research it!


great thread

Emerson, my 11 year old, is on a bit of a wild ride with the @USPS and our local mail carrier, Doug. And, I think there’s a deeper message to it all. First, the backstory...

If you're afraid that giving people $2000/month will leave them with more money than they would have had if they were working, that's an argument for raising wages, not for refusing to bail out the people.

“A lie told a thousand times becomes the truth.” — Joseph Goebbels This was used to chilling and deadly effect in Nazi Germany before and during World War II. It serves now as a warning for our times. When you hear politicians repeating blatant lies, remember this.

400 years of lynching, police brutality, disenfranchisement, discrimination, racism, mass incarceration and all levels of "Black" suffering and now you want to ride the success of our perseverance? Thieves.

Anyone should be allowed to 'identify' as black regardless of the colour of their skin, say university leaders trib.al/haGCF5L
