Democratic voters issued a massive rebuke of their own party last year by just refusing to show up on election day & instead of a major shakeup its leaders are spending big on consultants to find a Youtube salesman that can help a small group of septuagenarians no one likes cling to power.

The US govt obsessed with Black people. "Being in the archives, I realized that the FBI probably has the most complete archive of Black bookstores because they were being surveilled so much. A lot of the ephemera that Black bookstores have probably wouldn’t be around if the FBI hadn’t archived it"

This what kills me about the whole “they tryna take tory the black man down” cuz if that was the case why would the use the HISTORICALLY most ignored, most disrespected people (a black woman) to do that? The success rate on black womens justice is NOT high. It doesnt even make sense in yall world.

Literally. The only people who have a successful history of false allegations against black men is white women & that’s ONLY bc their proximity to white men. Black women could get assault and it’s crickets. A white woman lies about an interaction with black men and its lynch mobs.

We cannot force a corpse to donate organs, but we can force a dead woman to be an incubator against her family’s wishes. The precedent this is setting is terrifying.

Anti-IVF rhetoric is on the rise. Anti-abortion leaders have described IVF as mass murder; some consider it ~ worse ~ than abortion. Also on the rise: calls for more clinic harassment, attacks, and protests after Trump pardoned 23 FACE Act violators in January. And today in CA:

This should be the bare minimum action for all plantations in America. The only use for a plantation in 2025 should be as a museum documenting the atrocities of slavery and as an archive for people to find their ancestors. Not as a bed and breakfast. Props to Whitney!

Being on the job market as a Black person not only means that you have to compete against institutional racism, but also AI, The President telling companies not to hire Black people, a pool of people who have been laid off over the course of several years, & a significantly smaller economy.

Just to be clear I would not exist if poor ppl weren’t allowed to have kids. My mother went from a great paying job and lost bc of an abusive boss. She got a job as a teacher eventually but like factually I would not be here. I don’t think yall realize how quickly you can be poor or disabled.

I just want to point out there are 2 bills that have been presented (in 2 different states,) that would make it illegal to pay people for porn performance if they are: - pregnant - have a substance use disorder - a “mental illness” - need the money to pay their bills

The irony of all this is that the current administration is actively working to dismantle family planning including all reproductive health care & IVF. So even if you CAN afford to have kids, they want to make sure you are birthing children for “good Christian families” and not able to raise them.

I also think we forget in a society that was built off chattel slavery. The demographic most likely to be poor is blk ppl. You know how racist laws don’t out right say “blk ppl can’t do xyz” but they disproportionately harm blk ppl. Who will be primarily affected if poor ppl can’t reproduce???

This video is making the rounds again for a reason. A great example of how you make your voices heard—without saying a word. Power in numbers and it sends a clear message. This is what democracy looks like: standing up to fascism, tyranny, and racism. This is the way!

Some of the cruellest people I've ever met have been religious leaders, police officers, teachers, and doctors. A police officer pursuing me romantically bragged about murders he's committed. You think felons, people with the least amount of power in society are the ones who are really fucked up?

It’s really striking how irregular the bands of mostly men conducting federal immigration enforcement are. They seem to have no particular uniform, they wear a variety of different agency initials on their tactical vests, or none at all, they’re inconsistent about displaying a badge…

As a NY'er, here's the problem: NYC elections are won by blue collar votes/who can carry union endorsements + name recognition. That's how Adams won, and right now people are thinking "anybody but Adams," which is why Cuomo is leading. There are some promising alternatives, but ppl don't KNOW them

The most likely place one of the US scientists fired by a 19 year old will end up isn't in some other country's version of Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study, but like, McDonalds or Doordash. The brain drain will be mostly into shitty gig jobs, not picking up that research elsewhere.

I will never forget, in the days after Obama's first win, ammunition sold out across exurban and rural western PA. Sold. Out. You couldn't find ammunition anywhere. That election broke white folks in a real way. And that truth he spit, re: clinging to guns and bibles, absolutely stung.

All the white folks are dropping and running instead of listening to Black folks or using their power to fight. And that’s the issue I have with the “just move to Canada” comment from that man. And ps. There’s plenty to be done around race in Canada as well. Anti-Blackness and violence is global.
