I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

if charlie kirk being shot is political violence, then so is every single Native or Black person who has ever been shot at or killed on this land

the latest from Leonard Peltier-

“Not once have they ever apologized for all that brutality. They’re doing it again. Look what’s happening in Palestine. They’re murdering women, children, babies. I want that story told with my story, that’s what I’m about

Leonard Peltier’s Story Isn’t Over Yet
The Native activist spent nearly fifty years in prison for the killing of two F.B.I. agents. In January, Joe Biden commuted his sentence, and he went home.

The new Center for Object Research and Engagement (CORE) at the Broad is incredible. What a fun, engaging way to display collections, include students in the process, and reactivate museum spaces!

took a trip to MSU to see the Detroit Techno exhibit before it closes on July 12. It’s in the new MSUFCU building (my last year living in EL was across the street, seeing it finished was cool!)

On this day in 1938:
Joe Louis knocks out Max Schmeling in an historic heavyweight boxing match, which also has huge geopolitical implications, or at least symbolism. Louis had lost an earlier match with Schmeling, a German, on June 19, 1936 at Yankee Stadium.

Overwhelmed and understaffed, the Louvre shuts its doors — a warning sign for global overtourism
