AND

The system is at practice everyday to undermine radical compassion anywhere.

Embrace the both/and.

Scholars say Trump administration is trying to erase America's non-white history From painting over a Black Lives Matter mural to temporarily scrubbing web stories of Navajo Code Talkers, scholars and activists say the Trump administration is trying to erase non-white history.

Maddow: I think it is a bad mistake to let Joy Reid walk out the door. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we've got two nonwhite hosts in primetime, both of our nonwhite hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend. I do not defend it.
