I had someone tell me this morning that Charlie Kirk’s views were no different than the views of the black panther party . I’m going back to bed.

Charlie Kirk spent his life saying some of the most vile,despicable things about people who look like me. His “views” were an affront to my dignity . He was a white supremacist. PERIOD.

Being a racist and espousing white supremacist views is not “a difference of opinion about politics”. Charlie Kirk was klansman in a Tom Ford suit.

Comparing that I was still getting questions about why I study Black people on the job market, I think I'm calling malarky.

Kendrick Lamar's Superbowl performance is why funding arts and humanities matters. We have Kendrick because his teacher introduced him to poetry and writing.

I love all my friends saying things like, “I wish I could make a career off being petty and making diss tracks” after the halftime show, and I’m out here like, “Have you considered academia?”

How Segregated Are Your Local Private Schools? We Made a Tool to Help You Find Out. Our reporters mined a trove of data that revealed detailed demographic information about private schools. That helped us find illuminating stories about how those schools divide communities.

The story behind the database began with our need to understand how many “segregation academies" still operate.

It shouldn’t be lost on anyone that rappers are essentially being sent to jail for lyrics and Drake trying to further penalize rap lyrics is dangerous and as opp-y a move imaginable.

All because he doesn’t want 100 million people singing along to a rap song
