Today is Harriet Tubman Day! She freed herself and hundreds of others from bondage before becoming a Union spy, scout & nurse during the Civil War. Her portrait should be on the $20 bill, but Trump has long opposed that plan. #WeTheMen www.npr.org/2025/03/10/n...

On this day in 1789, the federal government began operating under the U.S. Constitution. In principle, that Constitution speaks for “We the People.” In practice, powerful Americans have too often limited constitutional protections to #WetheMen.

On this day in 1913: Suffragists held a parade in D.C. Some male spectators responded to the peaceful protest with “nothing less than riots.” Suffragists “were spit upon, slapped in the face, tripped up, pelted with burning cigar stubs, and insulted by jeers and obscene language.” #WetheMen

On the one hand, I love this. On the other, it demonstrates law's failure to meaningfully address phone scams. When the legal system does not offer adequate remedies for deception, people tend to turn to self-help—for better or for worse. #intimatelies www.npr.org/2024/12/10/n...
