I hope this is right. There has to be a lot of activism now and through the election to "bend the arc towards justice," though. Do what you can (which is at least a bit more than you think you can).

Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college:
* Myth & History
* Rocks & Stars (Geology & Astronomy sequence)
* History of Scientific Ideas (lots of coverage of how the theory of evolution emerged)
* AfroAmerican History (the title then)
* Latin American Civilization

It occurs to me that if these aren't rooted in the values on the cups, they are corrupt.
My anger and my justice seeking are rooted in love and kindness - - when I see cruelty and hate, what I want is justice.
If we love all & want a world of joy & peace, we need to get angry and stop injustice.
I suspect they'll get behind it when they know it will pass in the House and there are Senate votes to convict.

This is a moderate position and every single democrat including and especially @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov should be shouting it from the rooftops.

ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolisβs white people going βoh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.β
itβs beautiful that theyβve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.
Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.
Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.
Yes: ICE is stealing and selling peopleβs things after brutalizing them. There are no words.
