Yasmin Williams opened for Brittany Howard last fall and her music was so lovely, I became an instant fan for life. Now you can, too! And then go buy her latest album, which has been a regular soundtrack to my life since I got it (I'll put that link in comments).

72 million Americans rely on Medicaid. 22 million households per month rely on SNAP. These are the programs Republicans are proposing to cut. This is not about "cutting waste, fraud, and abuse." It's about slashing benefits for working-class Americans to pay for tax breaks for the ultra-rich.

I believe racism is a form of willful stupidity because it absolutely blocks you from knowing and understanding all types of things happening right in front of your face.
