A $200 million ballroom, and now this. He doesn’t ever plan on leaving.

I’m just glad I grew up during a time where context clues, critical thinking, and essay writing skills were a priority in schools.

I know. You are completely shocked over this. Anyone have this on their bingo card? Or better yet, Anyone not have this on their bingo card?

For VF, the Fulbright scholar details what she witnessed in the six and a half weeks she spent inside a South Louisiana ICE detention center.

I know every war in history has been ended by someone committed to peace shouting "they don't know what the fuck they're doing!" at reporters.

I will always "Adore" Prince

The fact that the person who was head of intelligence for the MPD was working giving information to the head of the Proud Boys as they were running around trying to menace people around the city has only merited the most cursory of attention is frankly amazing to me.

For four long years I was told not to call what’s coming our way fascism but here we are:

You’re not worried about fascism if you’re not worried about racism. You can lie to yourself but not to Black people.

Indeed, a portion resettled in Texas..

The world recognizes Trump's racism, while U.S. media rarely call it out The appalling Oval Office propaganda stunt inflicted on South African President Cyril Ramaphosa by Donald Trump on May 21, 2025 was whitewashed of its racism by the American press.

My first guest piece collaborating with @mediaanddemocracy.bsky.social - A take on how global media calls out Trump’s racism & shocking behavior more prominently & more directly than most US media. With positive shoutouts to @karenattiah.bsky.social & @adamserwer.bsky.social

Ladies and Gentleman, the Meritocrats.

The dominant framing about Apartheid Clyde should be more of this and to be explicit in communicating this crisis: a non-state actor with billions in security contracts and a national security risk.

the revealed position of the republican party is that it thinks broad expansion of higher education — and especially its expansion for certain americans — was a mistake that must be rolled back

Like the IDEA that if you hate what someone is doing to you and to others, you’re a bad person is the CHIEF REASON we cannot move forward as a country.

Happy Birthday to the legendary Stevie Wonder.

When you have the supposed last line of defense in holding cops accountable also in bed with them, then there will never be any true accountability.

It's a mistake to think that BrownvBoard of Ed was about school integration

It was about equal funding

The schools across the US were found to have separate but vastly UNEQUAL facilities for Black & White students. It cost too much so they short changed Black #schools.

the trump administration, obviously concerned with racial equality, thinks its illegal discrimination to spend federal dollars protecting a predominantly black community from raw sewage

there are jokers out there who have built their public careers on the idea that to get past racism we must “unlearn” race or adopt total race neutrality in policymaking. stuff like this shows the folly of that thinking

as long as the material conditions of people’s lives are tied to patterns of racial inequality — as long as racism marks them as racialized people exposed to some
of the worst forms of social domination and class inequality — then there is no disregarding race as a social reality
