a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

Nailed it!

Demonized and marginalized the activists and wonder why there’s no mass mobilization.

Demonized and marginalized the elected progressives and wonder why there’s no fighters in Congress.

All the “fuck around and find out” people are starting to do a lot of navel gazing.

For Abuse Survivors, a New Path to Release from New Jersey Prisons Governor Phil Murphy commuted the sentences of three women convicted for killing abusers. Now advocates also want a legislative fix, and point to reforms in New York and Oklahoma.

NJ Gov. Phil Murphy did a big thing: He used the clemency power to free 3 incarcerated survivors of domestic violence; they'd been locked up for crimes against their attackers. Now there's a push in other states to rethink the treatment of incarcerated abuse survivors. boltsmag.org/new-jersey-c...

if American class ascension was merit-based in any way, Black women would be running all this shit.

For 500 years people have been coming up with technology after technology to replace, alter or disrupt books and they have all failed because business geniuses are somehow incapable of understanding that people really like reading

Why are y'all like this? So fucking eager to excuse racists, transphobes, etc. for doing what they always fucking do: voting with their bigotry.

"They didn't vote for what's happening now..."

We're two weeks into exactly what they fucking voted for. Shut up.
