As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

A few of my best drawings from #drawingisfree and some abbreviated thoughts:
There is something in the speed and informality that creates a hot-house growing environment that is very conducive to experimentation and risk taking.

Mrs A often complains the poetry I read/write/share is serious, gloomy, & downright depressing...

She may have a point, but to prove I'm not a one trick pony...

He could’ve fought, but he faked bone spurs. So someone else had to go in his place - most likely a working class kid whose daddy couldn’t afford to bribe a doctor. Now he’s talking shit about how it should’ve been fought.

Racism is bad for the economy. Economic growth stems from either increases in labor productivity or population size. Shrinking the population (and removing productive workers) shrinks the economy BY DEFINITION. People like Stephen Miller love racism more than economic prosperity 6/x

The Trump Administration is trying to forge a personalist authoritarian regime and honestly the conditions for success are there. However, they're *way* out over their skis at the moment. Their pure recklessness is making their path to success way harder 1/x

Aren't the Police the protective force that maintains the status quo for the wealthy elite? Don't you think we ought to attack the roots of social problems instead of jamming people into overcrowded prisons?
