The Crop That Destroyed Entire Countries
Fantastic video from Shawn Grows:
This film traces how humanityβs craving for sweetness reshaped the world. From ancient Indiaβs first crystallized sugar to the rise of Caribbean plantations & the birth of global empires, sugar transformed from a rare luxury into an addiction that fueled revolution.

I LEARNED THE ANSWER TO THIS
Chris's Steakhouse was a New Orleans landmark
Chris Matulich periodically got bored, sold it, waited for the new owner to fail, and bought it back cheap
The sale conditions: Can't move it, can't change the name
He did this six times
Then he sold it to Ruth Fertel

WARNING: The violence and cruelty is hard to watch, but impossible for families to endure.
Β
This is a sickening example of Trump and ICE's blatant disregard for humanity as they terrorize our families and communities.

It is shameful, cruel, and it must end.

people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up

"At the playground with a few moms. I mentioned
that there was a nice group On rambunctious boys in
a class I was thinking of signing my boys up for.
Another mom said, "Some actually have (female
names) and are non-binary."
Isaid, "Oh so they're girls dressed as boys?"
And then the moms left
and this is why it's fun making mom friends in

I got laid off, I utilized SNAP, and I was able to remain in my chosen field of profession. The program is incredibly effective in mitigating the effects of unemployment, and thatβs precisely why they want to gut it.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
