I don't know about the guy in the upper left, but it seems key to not that the greatest beneficiaries of all DEI programming were white women.

I got to meet and present with the brilliant Dr. Melanie Yazzie in April at Dtmth. She's analytically sharp, a storyteller, and funny af.

โ€œThe New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit pieceโ€ is a way bigger story than โ€œ18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked โ€˜African Americanโ€™ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Ugandaโ€

I desperately want historians of sci to step up & remind us how complicit we scientists were for decades, all in the hope of keeping that sweet money coming. I've watched scis ruin activist & labor movements on uni campuses all from the fear of appearing political. Time for a reckoning, and repair.

Hundreds of veterans volunteer to attend asylum hearings with Afghans The effort began after a former Afghan interpreter was detained after his San Diego asylum hearing this month.

โ€œIn the last week, more than 200 veterans have volunteered to attend immigration hearings with Afghans who worked with U.S. forces during the 20-year war in Afghanistanโ€ฆโ€

Jason Delgado (Florida Capitol reporter for Spectrum News 13) on X: "Quick look at what inside a detainment tent looks like here at Alligator Alcatraz." What is shown in the picture is a long tent structure, about 50 feet wide. There is a corridor running down the middle. On each side are three rows of bunk beds. The bunk beds are sectioned off into cells which are constructed out of chain link fence, with chain link on the ceiling as well, making each cell a literal cage. It looks to me like each cell contains 9 bunk beds, so has capacity for 18 people each.

Literal cages. Not even metaphorical ones. Literal ones.

I agree. Tho, the ivies offer free tuition if ur fam makes < 100-160k (depending on ivy). But most (like me) still take loans to pay room/board/fees (my 2 jobs didn't cover it).

They govern the middle class through debt & play into "meritocracy" farce w/ the stories of their few poor students.

Honestly, just let the Marxist bros have their highfalutin debates about Settler Colonialism. Give them some Capital Vol. III and snacks and they'll keep themselves busy.

The part where you've chosen a hypothetical world with TWO OPTIONS... BOTH WHICH allow your daughter to suffer abuse.... instead of the THIRD OPTION where it is neither. You've shrugged your shoulders and said "sorry sweetie, it's either rape or harassment. No other choice."

Ok save your skeet, and show it to your daughter when she's 18. No? Then don't say it now.

Watch this. Let their bravery fill you up. We should be fighting tooth and nail alongside these people.

If we don't, we're just telling capitalists that they can do this to our communities and no one will stand up for us.

Solidarity is hopeโ€”the people united will never be defeated!

Fun fact, it was never lowered to blue or green. This ran from 2002-2011 and would get covered by the news

I really appreciate your response! Im very curious and will be reading it soon. As I'm worrying about now, immediately after it's founding the US began pushing past the 1763 proclamation line. Nothing past this was claimed by the US yet. The frontier was barely further west than the Appalachians.

I will have to look into this first, but the fact that Native reservations don't make it into this map, and the Geography of empire is bracketed to "off the mainland" is an immediate red flag.
