NB as a baltimorean: if youre wondering about our attitude towards nazis, I lived on a street where a dude with a swastika tattoo decided to sit on his front porch and catcall me. That lasted about a week until a gang of the neighbors beat him half to death with baseball bats in broad daylight

Some baristas are being told NOT to reference Black History Month when writing on cups & bags, although they face potential discipline for not writing anything at all - even when understaffed or during a rush. Why is this an issue, and why is Starbucks management emboldened to make these decisions?

Hey, I'm going to do this, and I hope you will too. Not because I think a one day pause will be a devastating blow, but because coordinated action takes practice, and if you don't do the small stuff, you will have a harder time gearing up for the big stuff.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Donald Trump’s firing of military leaders — four-star General Brown and four-star Admiral Franchetti — along with top legal officers is a betrayal of legions of first rate service members who dedicate their lives to our nation’s defense. This is a growing national security risk.

As Pamela says, this is our chance. They want our passports now to say "sex assigned at birth" with only two options. This is 1. Scientifically wrong. 2. Obvious pandering. 3. Morally wrong.

Feels like a shift from 2017, when Trump said "Frederick Douglass is an example of somebody who’s done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more, I notice." Ignorant, of course—but noting Douglass is worthy of admiration. Now they don't bother. He's out because he's Black.
