Should it surprise anyone that Google is now in lockstep with the other tech bros in scratching its efforts to hire minorities, even though it is run by an Indian born in India? Not me. www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/g...

Rosa Parks was born on this day in 1913. My favorite photos of the #CivilRights activist were taken in 1973 of her doing yoga at age 60. Parks understood that “self-care is part of resistance.” ✊🏾💜 www.yogajournal.com/yoga-101/his... #BlackWomen #BlackHerstory #BlackHistory
