This is how white supremacist narratives work. This claim has been litigated repeatedly and proven to be NOT TRUE. But they “feel it.” You can’t disprove it. The Lost Cause. Reverse Discrimination. Welfare Queens. The whole thing survives on myths. www.yahoo.com/news/vice-pr...

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

The second session of Librarian Futures is shaping up to be a very informative session with practical solutions for integrating AI and making it visible in the library. @technologyfromsage.bsky.social

@technologyfromsage.bsky.social the #LibrarianFutures summit has been excellent,with thought provoking conversations surrounding libraries and AI.

New #LibrarianFutures report is out now! 🌟 We asked 1000+ students and 300+ librarians how they’re using AI. The gaps are real—and so are the opportunities. The report explores the vital role librarians can play in guiding responsible use of AI. 📥 Download now: technologyfromsage.com/whitepapers

"Under the annual appropriations act, lawmakers are permitted to enter 'any facility operated by or for DHS used to detain or otherwise house aliens.' The law is clear that members of Congress are not required 'to provide prior notice of intent to enter a facility'..." www.cnn.com/2025/05/10/p...

A federal judge has permanently barred the Trump administration from using the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelans it labeled as criminals from his home district in southern Texas to a prison in El Salvador. The decision was issued by Judge Fernando Rodriguez Jr., a Trump appointee.

The North Carolina Senate Judiciary Committee advanced a bill Tuesday morning imposing civil penalties on workers and protesters who conduct “mass pickets” that are deemed obstructive or violent by a court of law. ncnewsline.com/2025/04/29/n... @kingdollar.bsky.social #ncpol #ncga

#ProudBlue RFK Jr is killing people who believe his anti-science trash-talk. It's part of FDA's mandate to take steps to protect the American public from threats like this from irresponsible companies who rate their profits higher than their customers.

NEW: In a news release published Monday, the City of Hyattsville Police Department said: “At no time did any member of the HPD identify or file any reports classifying Abrego Garcia as a member of any gang,” HPD’s statement read. This contradicts DHS' claim. www.dcnewsnow.com/news/local-n...

ICYMI, new piece/thread from me:

DOGE has now turned its sights on a small agency that provides support for community programs in every state. The National Endowment for the Humanities, which funds museums, historic sites, libraries, educators and media outlets across the country, has been told to slash staff by 70-80 percent.🧵

We are very far over the cliff here, folks

Republicans’ proposed tax cuts — predominantly benefiting the rich — will now cost $5.5 trillion over the decade according to new CBO estimates. Previous estimates were were tagged at $4.6T, but Republicans added in even more tax cuts. They really can't help themselves.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?
