There are lots of people who would rather be polite than speak their minds & end up fighting w/ those around them.

Ask yourself if you're the type that people feel like they can speak freely with. If you're not, then you're going to have a hard time bringing them to your view.

1/ Donald Trump’s inauguration speech wasn’t just a rallying cry for his extremist base—it was a blueprint for dismantling the progress we’ve fought so hard to achieve. Wrapped in a veil of “patriotism,” his words were rooted in fear-mongering, division, and denial of reality.

I first heard about Leonard Peltier when I was a teenager and saw this video from Rage Against The Machine. Now he's free. It shouldn't have taken this long.

Birmingham, you showed up and showed out! It was an honor to join the MLK Day 5K Drum Run today to celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the incredible spirit of our city. The energy, the drumlines, and the people reminded us of the strength and unity that makes Birmingham special.

“Despite details of prosecutorial misconduct, actual innocence, and judicial bias, Peltier sits languishing in a Federal Bureau of Prison medical facility after five decades in prison.”

President Biden should honor belief in second chances and grant clemency to Peltier and others harmed by racist laws and mass incarceration.

Regular people care more about everyday cost of living, healthcare, student loans, and housing costs than they do about jobs reports and the stock market.

It's a cold, hard fact that whether people like it or not, and no matter what the excuses may be, that failure to adequately address this issue had a huge impact on the election. It's gonna come to a head eventually. Whether it's controlled, or just blows up is up to the politicians.

Fire officials are ordering mandatory evacuations for several streets in Pasadena & Altadena near Eaton Canyon, where fast-moving brush fire erupted an hour ago and has since grown to more than 200 acres. They are warning of an “Immediate threat to life.”
