Sounds like Donald Trump wants to take away your guns.
White people are learning what indigenous people, Black people, Brown people and countless immigrants gave known for four centuries: America governs with violence against the poor and marginalized.
Minnesota is full of people who don’t really want to confront you, but will if they have to.
Philly whips batteries at Santa Claus because it’s funny. There’s a literal jail in the football stadium. The baseline demeanor is “what the fuck are you looking at.”
ICE deserves everything they get.
They sound like losers hellbent on destroying the fucking planet. We were all fine five years ago. Everyone was writing their own goddamn emails. Now one of my best friends is referring to ChatGPT as "he." I fucking hate it thanks
We all know Rosa Parks’ brave "No," but the logistics were a masterpiece. To make the boycott work, the MIA (Montgomery Improvement Association) organized a fleet of 300+ private cars to act as a DIY transit system. They out-managed the city’s own infrastructure. (cont)

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

In 1941, as the U.S. prepared for WWII, the American Red Cross launched a national blood program for the military. What most people don’t know: the program initially banned Black Americans from donating at all. This was Jim Crow in a lab coat. (cont)
