This needs to be a bigger day more than ever after the regime's new campaign of rampant denial and whitewashing of the horrors of slavery

Soon this orange psychopath will activate the Marshall law and Krasnov has all the power to do what he wants. The courts will be lame ducks and the USA will become a fascist country. Every one who oppose this felon will be thrown in prison. Look at Russia! Wake up before it’s too late!

On behalf of the people of the great state of CT. I would like to apologize for the actions of one of our congressman Jim himes , who has shown himself to be a loser who will be primaried and defeated.

Stop letting this white country use your black body to fight their battles. I admire you. But we’ve got to stop throwing our black bodies out in front of everyone. No one ever comes to our rescue. But they always want us to fight their battles. Black people have got to stop this shit.
