Friendly reminder that Dem messaging was effective with Black voters, Latino voters, Jewish voters, and LGBTQ voters. They all voted Harris in majority numbers. It was ONLY white voters that failed the assignment. My fellow wht folks voted djt in MAJORITY numbers. Again. WE are the problem.

Professor who teaches African American studies here. If your school eliminates or bans it, I will personally host free zoom sessions, provide resources, or answer questions for students, parents/guardians, or teachers who are interested in learning or discussing African American studies.

Tryin' to imagine makin' a billion dollars scribblin' about baby wizards and whatnot, then sittin' in my castle, rage-tweetin' at trans people all day. Guuurl you won at life. It's cool to just sign out and take everyone your ass has ever known to Wingstop.

Boy, these last eight days feel like a good reminder why democracies generally avoid letting people who attempt a coup come back to power….

The White House didn't say "stop teaching about the Tuskegee Airmen when you do US history." The White House said "stop doing DEI and wokeness," and the military interpreted it as "stop saying the Tuskegee Airmen were heroes, and maybe stop teaching about them altogether." Yeah, that's bad.

If you’re a federal govt employee targeted for leave or termination on the basis of your DEI work, please file an EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) complaint & retain legal counsel. I’m a former NIH PI. Happy to refer you to a law firm that has successfully sued the govt many times! Pls repost 🙏❤️

With literally minutes left in his presidency, Joe Biden has granted clemency to Leonard Peltier

THIS IS HUGE! Scientists at Duke University's Human Vaccine Institute have made a significant advance in the quest for an HIV vaccine, successfully developing a vaccine candidate that could help the immune system produce antibodies (bnAbs) needed to fight the virus. Let’s talk about that! 🧪🧵⬇️

Octavia Butler couldn’t see the future. She saw what was happening in front of her and, in addition to studying the past, was able to imagine where it would lead. It’s important to tell the truth about her because mythologizing her is a disservice to her legacy.

Gentle reminder At the end of the day (the day gotta end - Glorilla) unqualified people make outlandish claims, that dead end when it comes time to execute. They ARE who we thought they were. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWmQ...

Do y’all know how huge this is. DO YOU.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.
