This hits hard—and says everything about where we are right now.
A Yale professor says he’s relocating to Canada to continue his democracy work. When asked why not stay in the U.S. and fight, he says he has two Black sons and he’s the son of a Holocaust survivor—and this is an “anti-Black moment”.

Struck me as a bit over the top at the time. Never forgot her expression.
Wish my son had stuck with that girl. Likely the best thinker, best person he'd ever dated.
Kutler is destroying the brand.

Best of luck in a country that appreciates you.😍
The only ones they won't come for.
You can't fight from underneath a boot/El Salvador/a detention centre/chained to the sink, pregnant & with no rights to your own money.
If someone has the chance to go, and feels like it's the right time for them to go, I am never going to judge a person for that. I am grateful for all who survived last time.
Call these WHADBAGS out!

Quietly and steadily.
The comparisons to 1930s Germany are endless ...
“1990 report: Ivana Trump told her lawyer Donald Trump kept Hitler speeches beside bed” - CNN
It’s a UNITED front or we just accept our Authoritarian Government
Many are pushing back, average citizens not supporting those willing to stand up for Democracy is a losing narrative. Canada can’t save us. “We the People” can.
The world is basically, “occupied”
I’m hoping maybe together we protect what we know, and never allow an authority, to take it from us. We the People
A Two hundred year old democracy disappeared in MY lifetime and I am in my 30s.
I will flee the country if I have to, because I refuse to share space with openly insane white people the way my ancestors had to.

This white woman chased a black child on the playground, called him the N-word then sought to raise $1M and so far taking in over $500K to "protect her family"🤬🤬🤬

Now, the definition of a smart person is 'the one that leaves America'
Plenty of smart, retired, poor people, disabled, long term sick or without transferable skills who can't leave.
It is infuriating.
The UK gets 50,000 'illegal' immigrants each year without having money. (Not to mention the 900K 'legal' immigrants)
If you are smart and want to work, you can move to any country in the world.
But I'm sure they'd prefer not to have to emigrate that way.
Do you think everybody who arrives in a country through an illegal route is just looking for a nice opportunity?
But most of them are looking to be safe and try to build a way to support them and their families.
What about the other points?
Being smart and wanting to work is not a magic carpet ride to other countries.
Not how that works.
It's so very sad that one voice out of the white house could cause globe uncertainty.
We're losing the best of the best though. The brain drain has to be significant, & it will only get worse.
Just a coward not willing to confront.
We reap the benefit of Stanley being able to continue his research and advocacy from safe harbor.
I’ve wanted to but realized my white privilege and I really need to stay here.
A1.
Whoosh. Yeah she likes steaksauce, gotcha. The results of her as Sec Ed will be felt for years to come!
Costa Rica, maybe.
No words.
Brain Drain
Safety for the professor & his family is the number one priority.

Former VP Kamala Harris warned us and wanted to move us forward on to a better & brighter future.💙
It's unfortunate that we have a racist, narcissist, oligarch,sexual assulter, convicted felon in charge.
👎🏻🤮😞
Everyone that can leave, should.
Holland is a country I think you'd like.
I'm never sure which is the correct thing to say: The Netherlands or Holland.
Now I know.
We just paid the $1,400 to expedite our passports
We're happy you chose our country 🇨🇦🍁

Trump is a racist and the GOP supports Trump as their authoritarian leader now. The GOP falls in line with racism and white supremacy; while attending their white nationalist churches on Sundays.
"Privilege? I worked hard!"
On "Easy Mode," of course.
the more people who become aware, the better. If things don’t seem right, they probably aren’t right.
At least, your story identifies someone who is willing to see!
Long term damage here for the US, Operation Paperclip, in reverse. Meanwhile you can't get rid of this illegal immigrant
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Even if Trump is gone, we are one migrant caravan/DEI scare away from a JD Vance presidency.
America is a pretty fucked up country.
Keep calling your reps Everyday and Dem/Republican leaders
Schumer, Jefferies
Johnson, Thune,

Tell them to remove Trump by impeachment or treason charges.
