First it was troops in L.A., sent to provoke and assault peaceful protesters under the banner of “immigration enforcement.” Now it’s troops in our capital to disappear the homeless. See the pattern? Sooner or later, the monster comes for us all.

On Juneteenth, we celebrate Black freedom, resilience, culture, and the enduring strength of community across generations. We acknowledge our nation’s full history and the long, ongoing fight for freedom and justice for Black Americans.

Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams book cover

As my first Bluesky post, I wanna recommend everyone read Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams. It’s an incredible and shocking insight into the lack of technology regulation globally and the willful negligence of one of the most powerful companies in the world. Worth the read.
