House and hip-hop share a common thread: both are distinctly Black American artforms that emerged from U.S. streets and dance floors, shaping the mainstream after gaining underground followings. A scholar of African American culture highlights this connection: https://buff.ly/3EkW0qH

REAGAN: “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies… beware of demagogues ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, national security, and the entire free world—while cynically waving the 🇺🇸 flag.” Trump’s bad ideas are not new.

Bravo to Sen. Alsobrooks for her question. “We should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule as Whites because their immune system is better than ours.” — RFK Jr This is the deadlier version of the racist myth that Black people feel less pain, leading to denied pain meds.

That's right - we should cut government waste. But we're seeing Trump and Musk's plan in action: pausing federal funds that rip school lunch away from preschoolers and end Meals on Wheels for seniors. That's not efficiency, it's cruelty. I have better ideas. www.foxnews.com/opinion/sen-...

Just read the unabridged version of Anne’s diary. Years ago I read the “school” version—so much left out about an adolescent’s sexual awakening. I mourn that the world never got to see this brilliant teenager grow up. Never forget. #booksky

Birthright citizenship is “as close to a national self-definition as we have; it is our legal DNA,” David W. Blight writes. “One cannot overstate the gravity of Trump’s proposed action, nor the historical ignorance on which it stands.”

There are good ways to resist Trump’s agenda. This is not one. Dems threatening to tank our economy like Republicans regularly do just validates their hostage-taking. We should pay our bills. The debt ceiling should be abolished, not weaponized.

The USAF has reversed itself "after uproar." We must continue to pay attention. We must continue to preserve & share the stories of the Tuskegee Airmen & the Women Airforce Service Pilots. I promised them I would always tell their stories. You can too. Knowledge is power! www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

Hey, while we're talking about erasing history: In 1949 the US military held its first Aeriel Gunnery Competition, later known as "Top Gun." The best of the best competed in dogfighting and other skills. The team that won, was the 332nd: The Tuskegee airmen. So they refused to announce a winner🤡

It’s an open secret among medical professionals: Many drugs maintain their ability to combat ailments well after their expiration date. One pharmacist says he sometimes takes home expired OTC medicine so he and his family can use it. (Published 2017, but there's no expiration date for this story)

No one can quash the legacy of the Tuskegee Airman. Same for the Buffalo Soldiers. That unit was sent to West Point from 1907-1947 to replace an undisciplined white unit. During segregation, they trained all the white officers who fought in WWI & II & they built a legacy. We know their story.
