WTF. The person in charge of our education system has no idea about the Tulsa race massacre or any clue who Ruby Bridges is...
FYI, Linda McMahon is 6 years OLDER than Ruby...
Lee: Would say it would be βillegal DEIβ for a lesson plan on the Tulsa race massacre?
McMahon: Iβd have to get back to you
Lee: Do you know what the Tulsa race massacre is?
McMahon: Iβd like to look into it more and get back to you on it.
Ruby Bridges is living history, and would make a 1000 x better Secretary of Education.

We're the frogs and the water is getting awfully hot.
Trump is trying to convince us that itβs all in the name of cost-cutting but in reality there is a larger plan to control news coverage and culture to undermine democracy

Remember all those corporations that pandered to us at Pride festivals for years? They have of course dumped us in an instant when it was politically expedient for them to do so. FUCK THEM. FOREVER. π³οΈβπ

Because theyβre trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is unnecessary or a luxury, survive a month without it.
