Congo will be free 🇨🇩 Sudan will be free 🇸🇩 Palestine will be free 🇵🇸 Haiti will be free 🇭🇹 Every oppressed people will be free, from right here in America and all over the world.

Danielle R. Sassoon, Manhattan’s acting U.S. attorney, quit after the Justice Dept. told her to withdraw corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams

Trash ass Chiefs with Christian nationalist kicker and Trump loving Mahomes family kicked into the dirty by the Eagles who come from a city with a big Black population during a Super Bowl with Kendrick Lamar and a super Black halftime show all in front of Trump. Love it.

In 2023, Autumn Lockwood became the first Black woman (and fourth overall) to coach in the Super Bowl. At Super Bowl LIX (Eagles vs Chiefs) she will coach in her second Super Bowl. Keep soaring, Autumn Lockwood ✨ #BlackHistoryMonth 🧵 1/4

An American flag built on the backs of Black people... Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways All this in New Orleans... What a moment

It worked!

If I send you this, I’m about to be an absolute menace

This Super Bowl Sunday, here's a reminder of what real courage looks like.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Down with white supremacy. Down with apartheid. Down with fascism.

This Black History Month remember human trafficking was legal. Slavery was legal. Jim Crow was legal. US Govt paying reparations to white enslavers but not to the enslaved was legal. Prison slavery still IS legal. Do not let legality & power be a measure of morality & justice.

Elon Musk saying the Nazis were communist is clear proof that he is in fact *not* a genius. It is a breathtakingly ignorant claim. The Nazis were feverishly anti-communist, and massacred some one million socialists and communists for their political views.

That Level 32 coming up quick🧙🏽‍♂️

Okay, but this is really how I felt watching When Harry Met Sally and the morning after they finally spent the night together

The largest demographic of Americans who voted Trump are low income white people. And the largest demographic of Americans who will be hurt by Trump's budget freeze are low income white people. MAGA racism will kill their own to advance the racist myth that Black & brown people abuse welfare.

Medicaid covers 41% of all USA births. Pro life party that constantly screams about "declining birth rates," won't fund universal healthcare, won't fund pre-K, won't fund child tax credit, won't fund school lunches, & now eliminates healthcare needed for 2 of every 5 babies. This will kill people.

This is an excellent point from @cathy.bsky.social. Lower-income men are much more likely than other groups to be functionally illiterate, and so their media consumption leans towards audio/video, and shallow entertainment topics. And progressives have basically ceded these spaces to the right.

ICE attempted to enter a South Side elementary school this morning and were denied entry, Chicago Public Schools officials claim abc7chicago.com/amp/post/us-...

It’s time for honesty (it always is): the first 2 years of the Biden-Harris administration, Dems held the House & Senate, Roe was not codified, the minimum wage was not raised, Americans didn’t get universal healthcare or even a public option, student debt cancellation was not passed into law, etc 🧵

Cute that some of y'all keep saying democracy died today when minority groups have been telling you for decades that rights were only given to some The lack of awareness to post some dumb shit like "we had a good run America" because who the fuck is WE?? WHO has had a good run??

And to everyone saying “it’s only 4 years”: we thought they couldn’t undo roe v wade, we thought they couldn’t undo chevron deference, and we thought they couldn’t ban a social media app So does nobody remember when he said he wanted to do away with term limits? Or are we still ignoring that too?

UnitedHealth found to have overcharged some cancer patients for drugs by over 1,000%
