Happy #BlackHistoryMonth! I thought I would share on here an article I wrote and posted on LinkedIn for #BHM in 2018 that was inspired by a tweet by one of my favorite Twitter mutuals Tiffany Graves.

Neighbors just shine it on

It's Black History Month in the US, so I'm marking it with inspirational quotes from Black Americans.

The UK arrested Prince Andrew. Hakeem Jeffries is telling Democrats not to boo Trump at the State of the Union.

"Is there technology the left is excited about?" is the kind of question you only ask if you're wildly naive about technology.

mRNA vaccines. Heat pumps. Offshore wind. Urban mining. Sodium batteries.

But god forbid we're not fawning over every new implementation of Making Computers Bad At Math.

Raphael Warnock is one of the best in Congress. He is also literally the pastor of the same church MLK was the pastor of. Their religion made both of them better leaders. Anyone who thinks Democrats should ignore religion is absolutely insane.
