It’s going to be so difficult to put everything back together when these idiots are gone! I just keep hoping & praying that people have backed up agency info to aid in recovery!
The quintessential element of democracy is majority-winner elections coupled w/ majority votes in Congress & SCOTUS. Once power brokers are democratically elected their job is to Make Our Republic Great Again. MORGA! That's happening as Congress casts majority votes in concert w/ our MAGA POTUS. AOC
Joy, I’m so happy I found you on Blue-sky. I can’t tell you how devastated I was when I realized you wouldn’t be on MSNBC. You are a beautiful, honest soul. Keep teaching everyone.. you do a fantastic job. ♥️🙏🇨🇦♥️
Ms. Reid: I am so happy to see your post this evening. I so miss you on MSNBC - their loss, as well as mine. But, I hope you will develop a better way of reporting the news to us. Loved your Evers book, and I know you will return soon to us on a better platform- like one you own.
Since they don’t get the importance of reflecting the contributions of all Americans, I propose that we be a No History society. We fail to learn from history anyway, so what is the point. I vote for total and not partial ignorance.
Great piece, you know...🤔that WE KNOW, how important, vital, and wanted your voice is!💬 Having followed your incredible knowledge, humor, and light✔💥for many a moon, sure won't stop now! Thank you for your JOY in this time. Carry on warrior, carry on! ps, glad you're staying😎✌💜
Do the Democrats even have a unified plan? RN, they are splintered doing their own rallies or town hall meetings - Tim Walz, Chris Murphy, AOC & Bernie Sanders, Jamie Raskin, Elizabeth Warren, etc. Come on Democrats - stand united! The party needs a new leader! AOC!!! We’re way past playing nice!
There should be a movie that depicts America without any Black (or other minority) influence on culture, history, or nation building. It would be a very short film. Of dead pilgrim graves.
No matter what he says, no matter what he does, no matter how hard he tries, we will NOT be erased. The BIGOTInChief can write exec orders until his tiny, wrinkly hands grow tired but we will overcome again ..and again... by any means necessary...surviving and THRIVING.
Like we always have! They jus wanna pass laws that put blinders on our existence and success. And that's fine, we'll thrive even with they messed up laws and blinders on! As usual!!
I am a white female and this depresses me so much. We were coming so far…still a way to go, but there was progress. I felt like we were all slowly becoming equal. Now, all progress is being ripped out from under us. I just hope that Black people know that not all White people are hateful bastards.
Joy.....great read. Congress should make a law that makes it illegal to destroy/eliminate history/pictures etc. from our files/sites/walls/books... Who can you call? They just can't get away with this. Good luck. Thank you.
They were really stupid for letting you go. I remember they canceled Alex Wagner NOW and then brought her back later so I hope they get smart and bring you back too.
My family and I are neither famous nor wealthy. We live very simple lives - valuable but simple, and we have had multiple discussions about leaving the US and where we might go. It is painful to watch this president dismantle sacred institutions because we love everything about democracy and the US.
Ms. Reid, I hope you someday explain your exit from MSNBC. You were not the most proGazan nor were you the most outspoken critic of Trump. Something else happened that I hope you will someday reveal to your friends and followers. You are certainly missed.
The recent removal of the contributions of Natives, Black people, immigrants, women, and LGBTQ people is a denial of everything that has made the US something that gave anyone some hope that the US could do better. Fuck them all.
I know one thing, there is NO culture without us. Look how the old white ladies jumped in the Kendrick bandwagon. They don’t even know what he’s talking about or who he is. No NBA, NFL, get the picture. They can NEVER erase us. We’re all they ever wanted to be!
Please please know that not all White people are bigoted assholes. We women, of ALL colors, MUST stick together. If we LET them divide us, they have won.
This information is not gone. The facts are the facts! Just because it’s ignored or denied doesn’t erase the “act” itself. The delusional INCEL boys are being appeased by this, it’s what Drumpf promised them. Doesn’t erase the fact they can never achieve or accomplish these feat’s, just too DUMB.
And your former employer is enabling this shit by not reporting on it properly. They fucked you over and I will never forgive them. None of them are your friends Joy.

We can not go quietly nor let others and their contributions be hidden from our history.
We have so much to save, to share and to cherish, including our rich and complicated history. We can not allow our heroes to "go missing."
Nearly a decade ago, this piece tacked the REAL "victim mentality"

And Dems still don’t have any push back against the blatant racism of it. They are still scared to talk about race and racism.

Keep whistling past that graveyard, guys!
Yes, Queen!
