For my Democratic friends in Congress, please wear Zelensky’s Oval Office attire tomorrow night to Trump’s State of Union speech.

When I saw the disgusting "trump Gaza" video this morning, the bile rose to my throat.

I won't share it. Instead, help me promote this counter narrative by Tala, from Gaza.

"Gaza is not yours to take. Gaza is ours, and we are still here. This is our land."

BRAVO to her strength and DEFIANCE. 🥹💪

Here we go. Come on blue states!

Holy shit! The ultimate resister right here. Watch what he does at the end. ✊🏾✊🏿✊🏻🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈💙

He is our example.

This happened today at a Huntington Beach, California city Council meeting. People are gonna have to be willing to get this loud, get in their faces, make a noise.

Don’t know if anyone else read the letter and caught that it contradicts the majority opinion in SFFA, which allows discussion of racial identities in essays to be used as a factor in admissions.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’

Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

Trump funding freeze a blatant violation of Constitution, federal law: Legal experts The Constitution, federal law and court decisions make it clear: President Donald Trump's order to pause federal funding is against the law, legal experts tell ABC News.

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Went to hear from the Dr. Bailey who coined the term misogynoir last night. What a panel! Panelist Fleur Larsen made a profound statement about how us, white women, gave the world 45 AGAIN. "We gave up our integrity to keep our privilege". 🎤🫳

A poem by Langston Hughes titled "Tired". It reads as the following: "I am so tired of waiting, Aren't you, For the world to become good And beautiful and kind? Let us take a knife And cut the world in two -- And see what worms are eating At the rind."

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.
