If you truly believe in equality of opportunity and meritocracy, then you believe in diversity. Talent is distributed more or less equally regardless of race, gender, or any other demographic. If your pool of workers isn’t diverse, you don’t have the most talented people.

1/2 My entire adult career life (following survival only jobs) has been built upon the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the concept of disparate impact as a benchmark for how to gauge violations. Which is kind of like using symptoms and harm as a means for gauging disease—it keeps you digging.

The scientist has been in detention for 2 months. Cancer research. Our federal government has the stupidest, most short sighted people in power in the history of the world.

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.

Bring them all home. If they’ve committed crimes, that’s what due process is for and everyone is supposed to be presumed innocent, absent a conviction.

I remember reading something in the 80s (decrying the state of public education) about students mixing up Mexico (the country) with New Mexico (the state). Apparently, that isn’t a rule out to be hired by ICE. #AbolishICE #DueProcessForAll

A random, mis-delivered Chewy order. A nice note from my new neighbor who works at a school I sometimes visit and do work at. A new friend. And I also dropped off a delivery in my community. We’ve got this.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

I am disappointed that today I’m paying taxes to fund government efforts to stop preventing disease and starvation overseas rather than paying taxes to support government efforts to prevent disease and starvation overseas.

My new hero. How it’s done. I love my job and I think I do good things for kids and families. Should that change, this is the work I’d do instead.

Dear Decent Human Beings in the Military and Law Enforcement, If you are ordered to violate the Constitution by this president, please disobey. The millions who served, suffered, and died before you deserve your courage now.

“Women are regularly being killed by abortion bans.” Why won’t media report that? A new study of pulmonary and critical care outcomes proves that women are suffering and dying because of Republican abortion bans. Republicans are killing women. It’s #femicide. open.substack.com/pub/jessica/...

BREAKING: Under the GOP's SAVE Act, Tribal IDs would NO LONGER be accepted as valid identification to register to vote. This is a direct attack on voting rights of Native American communities. Please pass on to your Native friends. Encourage them to call their elected officials #HandsOffHerVote

Trump and Elon Musk are closing clinics that treat survivors of sexual assault and have forced an 88% cut to maternal and child health programs. This is the USAID funding they’re slashing. It’s horrifying.

If they can illegally send anyone to an El Salvador prison illegally and not bring them back, they can illegally send you to an El Salvador prison and not bring you back. How can anyone defend this?
