The Black Linguist in me suspects “bring receipts” became a part of AAVE (and now mainstream spoken English)
because Black people are often disbelieved and accused of stealing when we try to return purchased goods for a refund.

I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.
ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.
We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:

We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:
“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

North Carolina GOP Is Cracking Down on the Black Sheriffs Who Stood Up to ICE
Boosted by new supermajorities, Republicans are closing in on legislation to mandate more collaboration with ICE and preempt local policies hard-won by immigrants’ rights advocates.

Stop calling them ICE agents. They’re not actual law enforcement. They are thugs-for-hire recruited from the Proud Boys, J6ers, and others. They are violent predators given the freedom to run wild against the people they have demonized. Every one of them must be brought to justice when this is over.

I’m a Black cancer survivor. Took white doctors 6 months to diagnose me.
Medical racism is part of the reason Black Women die during childbirth, at multiple times the rate of their white counterparts. They’d never let [a crowning!] white women wail and scream like this..

My partner was watching a youtuber who was going in on Megyn R. Kelly.
He brought up an argument that I haven't seen mentioned as often of the fact that people under 18 are children.
He also brought up the trafficking and confinement issue.
It's not ok to do that to ANYONE.
