White House Announces Comprehensive Review of Smithsonian Exhibitions

You can't teach U.S. history without "divisive" narratives. Slavery wasn't "unifying." The Japanese incarceration wasn't "unifying." The anti-immigrant Operation Wetback (real name) wasn't "unifying."
It's history's job to tell the truth, not cover up past racism to pave the way for future racism.

โ€œWhat to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?โ€ by Frederick Douglass This is the perfect time to read the entirety of Frederick Douglassโ€™s famous speech, and not merely because of the date on the calendar.

The GOAT speech never more apt.
โ€œThis July 4th is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn. To drag a man in fetters into the grand illuminated temple of liberty, and call upon him to join you in joyous anthems, [is] inhuman mockery and sacrilegious irony.โ€

itโ€™s even more demoralizing when the history youโ€™re repeating is history you were around for the first time

Their stadium rests on the rubble of dispossessed brown people, just the continuation of doing the bare minimum to support those communities

Spraying the ICE agents with paint using a repurposed fire extinguisher appears to be a turning point in this confrontation in Tucson today. Same tactic worked well against around thirty cops at a Montreal protest in Nov. 2024, blinding at least one and forcing a whole unit to retreat down an alley.
