Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

The weird, often whitewashed way the civil rights movement is taught (or not taught) seemed to convince a lot of people that nonviolence was met with nonviolence, instead of you know, dogs, hoses, beatings, death, etc

The fires are so extensive across Manitoba, Saskatchewan & Ontario currently that there are not enough air crafts to rescue remote Native Canadians. I am sending an SOS to every nation to help save the lives of people who are going to burn alive. Literally. Canada needs evacuation assistance.

I miscarried twice…once in a toilet. A 9 week pregnancy is the size of a period clot. I flushed the toilet. Today, I could go to jail for that. Jail. For a wanted pregnancy my body rejected and I took care of by myself.

This is not a denial

AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they

One year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, a 22-year-old is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government’s main hub for combating violent extremism

The city of Tulsa, home to one of the most horrifying racial-terror massacres in U.S. history and the people who tried to cover it up, has announced a $105 million reparations package.

I have rarely had this level of loathing for someone I didn't know existed until 5 minutes ago

Go Newark Mayor 💥 Newark Mayor Ras Baraka is suing interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey, Alina Habba, for false arrest and malicious prosecution.

Can’t believe they’re so bored that they got to the “rename the boats” stage of white nationalist governance.

I wish I was able to speak sports because it is hard to convey what this moment means to legal nerds. 🤣🤣

It says a lot about where we’re at in this country that a beloved voice actor was murdered by his homophobic neighbor and every headline is still running passive defense for his killer, doing everything not to call this hate crime what it was. These are scary times. RIP to Jonathan Joss.

"Reporting has attributed Musk's departure to philosophical differences with Trump. But a crucial factor has been the grassroots protest that has damaged Musk’s businesses and helped destroy his popularity."

Jonathan Joss was MURDERED. Words matter here. He was MURDERED. it was a HATE CRIME because he is a gay Indigenous man. Say those words. Do not dance around it. He wasn't "killed in a shooting." He was murdered in a hate crime.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

San Diego neighborhood makes ICE agents retreat

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Are you working in civil rights enforcement for the federal government and being made to investigate racial equity programs OR are you an organization being investigated or had your federal funds stripped for racial equity work? Message me. Signal: nhannahjones.67

The Vietnam War was 20 years long. By 1973, almost 60,000 Americans had been killed and over 3 million Americans had been stationed there. And the US was losing most of the time. This context is important for evaluating why Americans turned against the war. It was self preservation, not empathy.

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

George Floyd should be alive today. He should be raising his daughter, living his life. 5 years later, we owe him more than thoughts and hashtags. His daughter said, “My daddy changed the world.” Let’s stop failing her, and him. Congress must pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

And who are they gonna fill those prisons with? Or the simpler question is who *aren’t* they gonna fill them with?

I mean these people are as fragile and brittle as glass

The fascist win if you lose your compassion for other people. That's part of the war. You have to keep compassion.
