Imagine being born in slavery and living up until 5 months before the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Anna Julia Cooper is one of my favorite people in history. She was born on August 10, 1858, and lived to the age of 105.
I can't sum her up in a single post, but she was born 167yrs ago today

Every day Trump bloviates about some new nonsense is another day he’s covering up the Epstein files…because he obviously has plenty to hide. Don’t let this drift to the back burner, people.

it has been said over and over but it’s worth reiterating in the face of this horrifying decision: RFK is quite literally joining the war on cancer on the side of cancer

Today in history, 1981: Almost 13,000 air-traffic controllers go on strike after negotiations with the FAA to raise their pay and shorten their workweek prove fruitless. Two days later, Reagan fired more than 11,000 who had not returned to work. /1

No, Good People Don't Still Support Him
Everyone believes they're essentially a good human being.
At this point, the only reason left to support a man like this is that he reflects your hateful heart: he shares your contempt of people of color, your hostility toward outsiders, your toxic misogyny, your ignorant bigotry, and your feelings of supremacy.

Don't like the numbers? Just fire the person responsible for gathering them.
Trump's doing what every tyrannical regime has always done: wiping out the truth and replacing it with lies.
