I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow

One of the reasons I have the attitude I do about it is that Black folks don't get a choice about growing up to hear about and living with the gruesome things that were done to our families. The ability to turn away, to not see it, to not have it be part of your consciousness, is a privilege.

Barry Jenkins said something similar when folks complained about the gruesome violence in UNDERGROUND RAILROAD. I wrote a lot of words about that. www.rogerebert.com/black-writer...

I’m going to reiterate that RFK Jr. will not stop until he takes away every vaccine recommendation and thereby reduces access to them.

This interview with Kirk Milhoan is one of the most disturbing things I’ve seen in my entire career.

He seems to think that a polio outbreak would be just fine.
Top CDC vaccine adviser questions need for polio shot, other longstanding recommendations
The chair of a federal vaccine advisory panel charted a new course for the committee in a podcast released Thursday, questioning longstanding recommendations.

I keep seeing leftists from outside of Minneapolis say they’ve seen all this before, and no, you haven’t. I’ve been at this for 30+ years and I haven’t either. It’s not what you’re picturing. This is something else
I know people keep saying this but it’s hard to communicate the depth of active resistance here. Like, I’m on random cafes and people are checking in for observation shifts. Signs everywhere. Folks in visibility vests on the corners. It’s wild. Absolutely wild.

Deporting children with cancer.
Using a 5-year-old as bait.
Shooting moms.

ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.

Black folks and immigrants have long lived in a "perogative state" when it comes to law enforcement, and maybe pundits at the largest national outlets should recognize that their past support for punitive policing and immigration enforcement laid the groundwork for the current moment.

The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that woke, for lack of a better word, is good. Woke is right, woke works. Woke clarifies, cuts through and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

It’s on tape, clear af, that Gavin agrees with Shapiro about it not being a genocide.

Please try to remember that info when he, and the fools who want him, try to act like he didn’t.
