Karen Attiah, Ebony McMorris and Yamiche Alcindor- 3 Black journalists who exemplify Ida B. Wells' quote, "The way to right wrongs is to turn the light of truth upon them." These women have been wronged either by their former place of work or by the President himself, enduring bullying and abuse.

You're still obsessed with #KPopDemonHunters, right?
I've been loving seeing how the film has resonated with so many, and Angry Asian Man captures the sentiment I've seen from many Asian millennials.
Do you agree?

The mass starvation & killing of Palestinians in Gaza at the hands of the Israeli gov’t is a chillul hashem, a desecration of God.
Jewish leaders who criticized Zohran Mamdani for three words he doesn’t use should raise their voices loudly here as well.

Gaza is starving. Where are the American Jewish leaders?
A fear of being labelled antisemitic still deters American Jews and Jewish institutions from taking a position that is morally correct.

There were multiracial Vikings, and it's not "woke" to believe that fact. Actually, it's in line with history.
