When I resigned as co-chair of the National Association of Black Journalists convention after their decision to platform Trump, I took a lot of heat for it.
I was told “Black journalists are going to expose his racism and save America”
Today, the Trump regime is arresting Black journalists.

We are OUTRAGED and deeply alarmed by the arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort by federal agents, and by the government’s escalating effort to criminalize and threaten press freedom under the guise of law enforcement.

Journalistic activity is protected by the Constitution. Attacking journalists is violating the Constitution.
It’s just plain wrong. How ridiculous to claim you’re about law and order while shredding the Constitution.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

I'm just so tired of Dem leadership playing games instead of jamming the gears at every opportunity. ICE is killing people. People in occupied cities can't leave their homes. Thousands and thousands of people are sick and dying in detention centers.

Ilhan Omar or any woman having to “fake” and attack by a man is utterly laughable
As if any of us have to fake what is real for our whole lives
More so if you’re a Muslim woman

the reason I'm so heated right now is Ilhan Omar has been thrown to the wolves so many times by the Democratic establishment for saying the things the Dems are finally, YEARS LATER starting to say.
They've let Rep Omar take a lot of heat and have not used their voices enough to defend her
