“I am somebody” shaped how millions of us saw ourselves as kids, including me. That message mattered. It still does.

Rest in power, Jesse Jackson

Democrats should propose amendments to the SAVE act that require the government to furnish free IDs to all eligible voters before requiring them, automatically register all people to vote, expand mail-in voting, and create a national voting holiday. Then watch republicans block them.

I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.

@aoc.bsky.social is an amazing leader
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

If you put 3 common grocery store items in front of him he wouldn’t have the first clue how much any of them cost. He has no idea whatsoever what life is like for 99.99% of Americans. Worse than that is that he has zero interest in finding out because he doesn’t care.

This made me ugly cry 😭

I will never claim that he was perfect…every president in my lifetime has pissed me off for one reason or another.
But…dammit, I’m so tired of the constant feeling of uneasiness and uncertainty 😔

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

LISTEN: There are a lot of folks out here working tirelessly to get the truth out there. Replying to us that nothing matters because there'll be no consequences is not only incorrect, but it belittles the work we do. It's insulting and shortsighted. Stop following us if you don't want the info.

Claudette Colvin is an icon of American history.

It was an honor to be her neighbor and attend her memorial last week at Abyssinian Baptist Church alongside her family.

As we continue to uplift her story, let us honor Ms. Colvin by living the way she did: with courage.
