In honor of black history month, I will be doing a daily thread of James Baldwin quotes. If you have never heard of the late great Mr Baldwin, he was a trailblazer in so many ways. If the weather is crappy where you are might I suggest βI Am Not Your Negroβ a 2016 documentary.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. Itβs not intellectually superior. Itβs the virus theyβre trying to infect us with. NO

Trump must be held to account:
- his agenda is raising prices for everyone
- heβs breaking the US govt/our public health system
