I often feel a bit afraid due to my identity in this area but #nokings brought out so many

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday.

This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.

Black Americans live rent-free in the minds of Black non-Americans. It’s wild how hard some of them work to distance themselves from us while still consuming and embodying everything we create.

The churches pushing back fascinating

Exclusive: Senate Dems blare alarm for Meals on Wheels funding A group of 46 Senate Democrats said the program is on the chopping block in the GOP's budget plans.

Republicans in Congress are scrambling to fund tax giveaways for billionaires.

Where do they want to take the money from? Programs that provide hot meals for seniors and child care for babies.

I’m joining @welch.senate.gov in fighting back.

Dissent Is Not Grounds For Deportation The unconscionable, illegal arrests of Mahmoud Khalil, Rümeysa Öztürk, Badar Khan Suri, and other international scholars should alarm every one of us. Tell Congress to defend our right to free speech ...

This is a big win, but we will keep fighting until Mahmoud Khalil, Dr. Badar Khan Suri, and all people who are being detained by the Trump administration for their protected speech are free permanently.

Tell Congress: Dissent is not grounds for deportation.

I am saddened to hear about the passing of Secretary Alexis Herman—my Soror, a trailblazer, and the first Black woman to lead the Dept. of Labor. Her impact on this country and the fight for working people runs deep. Rest in power, Madam Secretary.

Pope Francis dedicated his papacy to creating a more inclusive, loving, and equitable Catholic Church. My heart is with all of those who found faith, community, and hope under his leadership. He was a pillar of progress for the Catholic community and the world. May he rest in peace.

The Women going to the Sepulchre, 1912, Robert Anning Bell Painting of women in blue garments walking leftward, one woman, and then five behind her, on a flat plain, hazy sky ....

Thanks to my friend Harriet for pointing out that the women went to Christ's tomb and saw he was not there, the angels showed up to describe what happened, & the women then told the apostles, who dismissed them. A Biblical account of women not being believed.

If a typical picture is worth a thousand words, this reaction by the leader of Italy to sitting next to an obvious madman is worth several trillion
