And the main way you can do this is to read history. Reading history teaches you to see patterns. After that, you start asking who and why and THAT'S when you get angry
In other words, put on your critical thinking cap and stop repeating party rhetoric.

Really love this quote because creation really does take time.
Amy Sherald: “A lot of times when you don’t know what you’re going to make, it’s not because you have some kind of block, it’s just because you haven’t lived out in the world long enough." baltimorebeat.com/epically-ecs...

Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential.

Angela N. Carroll’s account of experiencing SHERALD’S portraits is not only a review, but an ecstatic poem that honors Sherald’s art beautifully:

This has not gotten much attention, but it should.

Virginia under Youngkin returned to an insanely harsh system where people convicted of any felony lose their voting rights FOR LIFE.

Dems' win this week mean they'll get to advance a constitutional amendment to end lifetime disenfranchisement.

Hey all— We're going to play it by ear for the tour this afternoon/evening and the big fire in Remington. Fortunately for us, this tour route is way south of the fire, & the wind is blowing the smoke to the north/northeast, at least for the time being. But we'll let tour guests know if plans change!

So grateful ❤️❤️❤️
I love Baltimore Beat so much and I decided that I’d help support the planning of their premiere as my pro bono event of the year. I’m actually going to put this into practice for other small black orgs who need support but may not have the budget in place for it. 🥹
