“Trump is using military forces to stop a protest — I want y'all to consider what kind of government it appears to be when every time we exercise our democratic right to protest, the military is deployed against us.”

It took me WEEKS to figure out what I wanted to say about the movie Sinners. But after I climbed back into Ryan Coogler’s filmography, I found some recurring themes that Sinners elevates

Dixie Demuth's bar was shut down by Louisville officials in 1968 for breaking state laws: Having a woman bartend, and having a female customer served drinks. Her legal fight overturned the law, which is now being commemorated with a historical marker downtown. From @breyakjones.bsky.social
Dixie Demuth pushed bounds of bartending. Now, Louisville cements her legacy.
When Dixie Sherman Demuth first opened her bar, women weren’t allowed to sit at the bar, much less bartend.
